I believe each person has inherent value; my goal is to encourage individuals to see their worth and facilitate them in making decisions they can reflect on with peace. Life is stressful at times, and we can all use a safe place to receive support and feedback. Counseling can help develop coping skills to better manage emotions of depression, anxiety, grief or stress; to improve communication between loved ones; and support individuals adjusting to major life transitions. I have a person-centered approach and often use strategies from CBT and TBRI to help client's meet their goals.

Are you struggling with substance use? Have you gone from partying with friends to secretly indulging in your addiction alone? Have you lost touch with the person you used to be? Are the hobbies you used to enjoy a thing of the past? Treating addiction involves two things: changing the actual substance use itself and addressing the reasons you drink or use in the first place. Most places that treat addiction treat just one or the other- but we will do both. This will give you the long term results that you're after!

Psychosis Therapists

What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?

The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.

When should people seek treatment for psychosis?

People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.

What if psychosis is left untreated?

Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.

How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?

It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
