Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn next?
Maybe anxiety is taking over, depression is weighing you down, relationships feel strained, or you’re navigating a major life transition. Perhaps you’ve experienced trauma, recent or from childhood, and it’s still shaping how you move through the world. These experiences can leave you feeling isolated or exhausted from trying to manage everything alone. Yet, you don’t have to carry it by yourself. Therapy can be a place to slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin to heal

First off, congratulations on taking the step on this journey. I'm super excited that you have chosen to be on this journey and look forward to this adventure together, if you choose me as your therapist. :) A little bit about me: I am a social worker with background in substance abuse and mental health. I really enjoy meeting with clients and working towards their "aha moments". Therapy is a safe space to grow and "let down your hair" so to speak. I never want our time to be a power struggle/dynamic but rather a place where you can speak your mind and not feel judged. Trust me, I can be pretty quirky too.

Reaching out for help can be scary. I aim to make that process a smooth one with support and encouragement. I am a Clinical Social Worker with 30 years of experience as a therapist. My clients come to me with a wide range of concerns, such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, illness in themselves or a loved one, and much more. What I see time and time again that they have in common is a feeling of powerlessness. Whether it be over their symptoms, their family members, relationships and even themselves. I help them to understand themselves and their circumstances more fully.

Third, humanness: No blank stares or awkward silences. Fourth, humor (but no knock-knock jokes).

Being a young adult can feel overwhelming! You’re figuring out who you are, making big decisions about your future, and trying to balance work, relationships, and self-care. If you’re also dealing with anxiety, it can feel like your mind never stops running: constant worry, racing thoughts, trouble relaxing, or feeling pressure to always do more. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and therapy can help.

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.
