I believe that therapy is a personal journey. I provide clients with a safe and non-judgmental environment that allows them to contemplate and explore all aspects of themselves. This contemplation and exploration allows clients to identify their own strengths and weaknesses. Once these areas are identified clients can work on fostering their strengths and begin to focus on overcoming internal barriers that may be impeding them from reaching their fullest potential.

But in reality, the hardest part starts after the substances are gone—figuring out who you are now, dealing with emotions you used to numb, and facing the anxiety or trauma you’ve been carrying underneath it all.
I dont do therapy that’s full of buzzwords and endless “mm-hmms.” I work with people in recovery who want more than just survival—they want meaning, purpose, and real freedom. Along the way, we’ll deal with the stuff that fuels addiction in the first place: anxiety that won’t let you breathe, trauma that still feels too close, and the deep pit of shame.

I work with clients that are struggling with self-esteem, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, inner conflict, relationship issues (domestic abuse, and negative relationship patterns).
Are you struggling trying to deal with the storms of life? Please know that you are not alone! Most of us experience challenges, yet oftentimes, it's difficult to find a safe person and space to express these concerns without being judged. Life changes constantly! Every day events leave you feeling overwhelmed, drained and unmotivated. Even every day activities seem to be extremely difficult. Constant demands of family, work and relationships are stressful. You know it’s time to make some changes. Losses of all kinds (the loss of a loved one, job, or relationship), can trigger a mirage of emotions or feelings of lack of control.

Addiction Therapists

What is the best therapy for addiction?

Addiction treatment will be tailored to the individual. People seeking help for addiction—whether with a psychotherapist, in an outpatient clinic, or in a residential program—should expect to engage in multiple types of treatments, sometimes including medication. For anyone recovering from addiction, avoiding situations in which one has typically used a substance is essential, as is the support of close connections. Since substance use disorders tend to co-occur with underlying mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression, those must also be addressed as part of any recovery plan.

How long does therapy for addiction take?

There is no set timeline for recovery from addiction. Patients and their families should expect the work to last several months, if not longer. Residential treatment programs may be based on a stay of 30, 60, or 90 days, with continuing work after release, but only about 1 percent of people are treated in such facilities. Ceasing use is just the first step; therapy to help maintain abstinence and effect behavior change must follow. The process of recovery, neuroscience has shown, involves brain cells recovering the capacity to respond to natural sources of reward and restore control over the impulse to use. Another definition of recovery is restoring voluntary control over one’s substance use and retaking all of one’s previous responsibilities.

How effective is drug addiction treatment?

Substance use disorders are treatable and remission is achievable for many who seek recovery; by some estimates, more than three-quarters of people who become addicted to alcohol or drugs recover. But that success rarely occurs quickly or on a set timeline; relapse is not only common, but many therapists and clinicians view it as a normal part of the process—not always a sign that a person has returned to addiction, but a signal that their treatment should be adjusted to help them regain control. Overall, research suggests, five years after the end of substance use, one’s risk of relapse is no greater than that of others who had not faced addiction. Other experts believe that complete abstinence is not the only measure of recovery, and that, through effective treatment, many people can learn to control their use.

How can you get addiction treatment for someone?

The most important factor in recovery from addiction is widely understood to be an individual’s commitment to change. For that reason,“interventions” in which friends and family gather to urge or force someone to begin immediate treatment often backfire; even when such efforts do lead someone to begin treatment, they may be less likely to stay than those who are self-driven. Still, family members can play an important role in supporting an individual who seeks help and can take part in family therapy as one element of a loved one’s treatment.
