With a passion for mental health and substance use disorders, I utilize a variety of evidence-based, trauma-informed models of therapy.
Everyone’s experiences in life are unique to their journey. Times of adversity, stress, anxiety, and depression can be signals for growth. Thomas Edison once said, “When you have exhausted all possibilities, remember this: you haven’t.” I admire your courage and strength to seek out new possibilities, outcomes, and insights.

Are your surviving or thriving? Enhancing levels of insight on cognitive reform are pre-requisites to detachment from un-necessary suffering. Change is often sabotaged despite desire for growth due to uninterrupted Subconscious Cognitive Loops.

I work with 1) survivors of sexual, physical, and emotional trauma, 2) those experiencing difficulties associated with infertility, pregnancy, substance use during pregnancy, 3) families coping with unexpected complications, traumas, and losses, and 4) people experiencing discrimination, marginalization, and/or trauma due to some aspect of their identity.
I understand the very human struggles associated with managing intense emotions and thoughts without feeling consumed by them, living in the present moment without being haunted by memories of the past or worries about the future, and arriving at a place where our lives are dictated by us and our values, rather than by traumas and other stressful life experiences. At the heart of these very human struggles, there are often more paths than we realize toward resilience and self-compassion. My mission is to offer a therapy tailored to meet your unique needs, grounded in science, and guided by empirically supported best practices.

Substance Use Therapists

How do substance and drug recovery or rehabilitation programs work?

In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other clients in recovery; in outpatient programs, individuals reside at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff often also includes people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other methods.

How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?

Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.

How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for substance use reduce the amount of drugs they consume. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.

Are there specific medications for substance and drug use?

There are medications approved to treat substance use disorder—such as buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone, and acamprosate. These medications do help people cope with substance use as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone can help reduce cravings, methadone is an opioid medication used to treat severe pain, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
