I am passionate about working with clients who are impacted by substance use and mood disorders. I believe in taking a holistic approach to counseling. Understanding how the mind and body work together to impact physical and mental health as part of recovery, is a key component of the work I do with clients. As well as, identifying how our thoughts impact our feelings and behaviors. I believe in collaborating with clients on their recovery journey in order to help you discover your best self.
I take an eclectic approach to treatment, using a combination of therapeutic approaches to match the needs of each client.
I approach work with all clients from a position of dignity and respect. Regardless of whether this is your first time or your 25th time in treatment, all clients are worthy of respect and compassion. Taking that first step to seek care, can be overwhelming. I am sensitive to that and here to help.
