I am a Addiction Pyschologist with over 30 years in the field. I am also one of the most sought-after National Keynote Speakers in the country on the subject of Substance Use. My primary aim is to empower individuals to overcome their obstacles and attain lasting recovery through a tailored and comprehensive approach.

My objective is to establish a safe and supportive environment where individuals can delve into their underlying emotions, heighten self-awareness, and cultivate healthier coping mechanisms.

Do you feel so overwhelmed and numb that you feel everything and nothing at the same time? Do you struggle with self-doubt, low self-esteem, depression, or anxiety? My approach works to address the internal dialogue that contributes to problematic patterns of behavior and painful emotions. I understand how limiting it can be when critical, perfectionistic, or other negative self-talk inhibits you from making the positive changes that you are seeking. I aim to help you become your greatest supporter instead of your biggest critic and to learn to relate with yourself in a new way that promotes growth and healing.

I focus on treating anxiety; depression; trauma; alcohol and substance abuse; gambling and other addictions; aging; gender identity; and relationship issues.

For some, past experiences can complicate how we live our current lives.
