Thank you for taking the time to consider my help as you decide to move forward in your life. I am available for individual consultations with motivated people seeking profound connection and change for their mental health and/or their substance use issues. I currently work with adult and some adolescent clients during the evening hours of the week. I provide a forum for my clients to feel truly heard, and make clear, well-informed decisions in support of committed change towards wellness and recovery.
I am particularly focused on the stories clients tell themselves about their limitations, and then help them to revise and retell those stories with an emphasis on opportunity and personal meaning. My experience and training with substance abuse, LGBT issues, DBT, EMDR, and TF-CBT modalities seems to be successful with many clients.
If you are seeking someone to be an engaged, supportive listener with a proven approach to substance abuse and mental health issues, I look forward to hearing from you.
