My passion is to help individuals transform their lives with addiction and substance abuse troubles and other life problems. Since most addiction is rooted in trauma, we will explore the hurts that led to addiction. I use my personal journey of recovery coupled with clinical experience to best serve my clients to assist them to understand their unconscious dynamics, to work towards an emotional awareness which allows them to change their life patterns and release that which binds them from living a more fulfilling life. I have experience working in outpatient and residential services.

The three primary goals I help my clients work towards in therapy are healing, recovery, and change. My areas of concentration include trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, divorce recovery, narcissistic abuse recovery, and work/career-related stress. Because your unique needs bring you to therapy, we will develop goals to meet such needs and evaluate our progress as we work towards set goals. My approach to treatment is conventional (evidence-based techniques), and faith-based Christian counseling. None of us is immune to life's stressors, but effective therapy can help us remain at peace as we handle those.

I help my clients assess the psychological, social factors that may be contributing to the problem presented. As a team, my clients and I work towards identifying the changes that they feel are needed to make to improve their life or situation. I also encourage family involvement in treatment to ensure that everyone has an understanding of what is going on with the situation and to provide support. I find most cases brief therapy is able to help people deal effectively with difficult situations.

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.
