I enjoy working with clients who are struggling with issues that are either acute (recent) or chronic (lifelong). I find that it is particularly important to form a working relationship that will focus on a path of discovery that will begin to identify possible solutions. Often problems can be resolved quickly such as parenting issues and sometimes issues are very complex and require examining a thorough history of life experiences from childhood to the present. I am always amazed how my words stick with people for years and years and I believe that a journey of discovery takes many paths and has many time frames.

I am a passionate therapist with a love for working with children, adolescents and young adults. My goal in therapy is to help clients find their identity even with a new diagnosis and to teach them that they don't have to be controlled by their symptoms. Therapy is a wonderful resource if you are feeling lost, confused, unheard, defeated, worthless, hopeless or just stuck in life. Through therapy, I work not only with the client but also the family in order to find a resolution to problematic behaviors or improve overall parenting and communication skills with children.

I employ a variety of therapeutic philosophies and techniques to help individuals overcome challenges such as addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma.
In my 10+ years of experience Behavioral Health in I have come to believe that, in life, we should never accept being secondary characters in our own story. Counseling can be a powerful means of reasserting oneself as the protagonist of one's own narrative. Investing in oneself through counseling is a commendable act, and there is no shame in making oneself a priority. With this in mind, I strive to create a non-judgmental environment that fosters open and empathetic discussion, enabling clients to achieve their goals through a collaborative therapeutic relationship.

So here's a brief snippet about me: I’ve been through some traumatic times, some of which were caused by my own doing. I can understand the feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, guilt, shame, anger, anxiety, and more. Those life events and mistakes are what led me to this God-given calling - to use that past feeling of brokenness and make it something beautiful.

Regardless of the reason someone may come to me for therapy, I believe that each person is unique and must be treated as an individual. Even though the "problem" gets the person in the door, it is often a symptom of deeper pain. I believe that I provide a nonjudgmental, compassionate setting that people need in order to look inside and gain a better understanding and acceptance of themselves, both their strengths and challenges. I "partner" with my clients to help them formulate realistic goals and give them feedback and encouragement as they strive to make positive changes.

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.
