Are you ready to change the way you've been living? Addiction of any sort, whether it be to alcohol or drugs, can be devastating to both individuals and families. As a person in long-term recovery I'm intimately familiar with what it takes to recover and have dedicated my life to helping families and individuals heal from addiction and step into a new life filled with hope and promise. I specialize in motivating clients to seek treatment and assisting individuals who have recently left treatment to find the appropriate supports in their community.

I am experienced at helping to transform depression, anxiety, relationship problems, addictions, and other struggles through a variety of active techniques: Psychodynamic therapy with a Jungian orientation, expressive arts therapy, imago therapy for couples, action methods for groups, and mindfulness processes. With leaders and organizations, I use a dynamic set of processes that help to transform conflict and develop emotional intelligence and authenticity. I also am a licensed LPC supervisor and train facilitators to use these techniques with their clients.

Patients very often say "I wish I had started my treatment years ago". The harsh reality is that emotional struggles to this day continue to be stigmatized and shamed. The brain is an organ, and like any other physiological system it may require some fine tuning from time to time. Whether you or a loved one have been under the grips of anxiety, depression, difficulty sleeping, or simply sub-optimal functioning, we can have an open, honest discussion about whether medication is the right answer. Throughout my 15 years in psychiatry, I've had no greater joy than to see my patients improve. It's never too late to get help.
