I am looking to collaborate with clients who feel disconnected from their lives, their relationships and their bodies in order to restore a regulated nervous system. Using both cognitive tools and creative interviewing I want to assist people who are hoping to hone their communication, to recover from dysfunctional family conditioning and connect with their most resilient selves. I am a trauma-informed therapist who has experience working with complex diagnoses, PTSD, chronic illness, anxiety and depression. My emphasis is helping my clients connect with and discover their own self-awareness, resilience and strength.

I have been working to help people struggling with addiction, anxiety and depression for the last 20 years.
Making the decision to look for help can be difficult and where do you start? With so many therapist being listed it's hard to decide which one to choose based on a simple profile and picture. Maybe you've tried therapy in the past and found that it wasn't a very helpful endeavor for you. You still are struggling with some problems yet don't know what else to do. That's why I offer a free initial consultation. Before you spend any of your hard earned money or waste your precious time you can decide if I can be of benefit to you and your particular challenge. And if I'm not the one? I will help you find someone who is for free.

I work with people struggling with a host of issues. Many of my clients over the years have had anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, and addiction issues. Since I've been doing therapy since 2008, I have worked with more presenting problems than I can list. I enjoy working collaboratively with people to find a resolution to the problems that bring them to therapy. People often don't know what to look for in a therapist. The research is very consistent here. It says a strong therapeutic alliance is more likely to bring about the change that you are seeking than anything else. My clients find that when working with me.

Addiction Therapists
What is the best therapy for addiction?
Addiction treatment will be tailored to the individual. People seeking help for addiction—whether with a psychotherapist, in an outpatient clinic, or in a residential program—should expect to engage in multiple types of treatments, sometimes including medication. For anyone recovering from addiction, avoiding situations in which one has typically used a substance is essential, as is the support of close connections. Since substance use disorders tend to co-occur with underlying mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression, those must also be addressed as part of any recovery plan.
How long does therapy for addiction take?
There is no set timeline for recovery from addiction. Patients and their families should expect the work to last several months, if not longer. Residential treatment programs may be based on a stay of 30, 60, or 90 days, with continuing work after release, but only about 1 percent of people are treated in such facilities. Ceasing use is just the first step; therapy to help maintain abstinence and effect behavior change must follow. The process of recovery, neuroscience has shown, involves brain cells recovering the capacity to respond to natural sources of reward and restore control over the impulse to use. Another definition of recovery is restoring voluntary control over one’s substance use and retaking all of one’s previous responsibilities.
How effective is drug addiction treatment?
Substance use disorders are treatable and remission is achievable for many who seek recovery; by some estimates, more than three-quarters of people who become addicted to alcohol or drugs recover. But that success rarely occurs quickly or on a set timeline; relapse is not only common, but many therapists and clinicians view it as a normal part of the process—not always a sign that a person has returned to addiction, but a signal that their treatment should be adjusted to help them regain control. Overall, research suggests, five years after the end of substance use, one’s risk of relapse is no greater than that of others who had not faced addiction. Other experts believe that complete abstinence is not the only measure of recovery, and that, through effective treatment, many people can learn to control their use.
How can you get addiction treatment for someone?
The most important factor in recovery from addiction is widely understood to be an individual’s commitment to change. For that reason,“interventions” in which friends and family gather to urge or force someone to begin immediate treatment often backfire; even when such efforts do lead someone to begin treatment, they may be less likely to stay than those who are self-driven. Still, family members can play an important role in supporting an individual who seeks help and can take part in family therapy as one element of a loved one’s treatment.
