What if life could be as enjoyable as it was prior to your addiction or eating disorder? Being isolated and scared is a difficult place to be and an even tougher place to get yourself out of.

Oftentimes, people just need someone to listen to them, to help them work through an issue, and sort out their feelings. That's where I come in as a licensed psychotherapist as well as a medical social worker.

I know that change is hard and requires courage, which is why I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and open space to discuss dreams, emotions and goals. I believe that people are resilient and that the work of a therapist is to assist clients in achievement of emotional independence. I help people gain insight into thoughts and feelings, within a supportive relationship, so that they can feel empowered to heal. Through expression, awareness, and accountability individuals connect with themselves, manifest growth and enact change in their lives.

How does the "talking cure" help? It might have even been called the "listening cure." Having a helpful and supportive ear is something many people find they need at various transition points in their lives. Having a safe place to talk, in a warm and supportive environment, is crucial. The tool of our work is the relationship and, as research has shown, is the most important predictor of success in psychotherapy. I enjoy working with my patients as they seek to find their way to a richer and more fulfilling life.

Offering sessions in-person and through telehealth. We sometimes will challenges that we sometimes can't understand. We began to think that there isn't any way that we are going to get through this, that we are going to be the same again, or that we would ever see the bright side to this adversity. I am here to say to you that while you are hurting today, worried today, depressed today, and feeling hopeless....... today doesn't have to define the rest of your life.

I have and that’s why I gathered a group of cool ass therapists to help you work through your shit.

My focus in treatment is simple, figure out how we can develop a plan together that will assist you in moving past your stressors. The goal of therapy is for you to become the expert and obtain the skills to see all situations through a new and more positive lens. My experiences as a clinical supervisor, psychotherapist, adjunct professor, and academic advisor have prepared me to develop a practice that will provide individual, couple, and family therapy to patients dealing with a wide gamut of issues through the life cycle.

We are excited to announce that we will have an office in March of 2024. "If we are to strive as human beings to gain more wisdom, more kindness and more compassion, we must have the intention to grow as a lotus and open each petal one by one" -Goldie Hawn. In my experience, the acceptance of information can stretch the mind beyond it’s previous dimensions and can feel very challenging. However, overcoming these growing pains can make life purposeful.

I am an addiction and trauma specialist with 15+ years of experience helping individuals, couples and families travel the road to recovery. I've worked as a sexual abuse case manager, drug and alcohol counselor, trauma group facilitator and military family consultant. I use an integrative approach rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to assist in the development of new, applicable coping skills, constructive processing and identification of concrete ways of managing after the therapeutic experience has ended. I hope that you'll allow me to help you and those most important to you journey towards wellness.

I view therapy as an opportunity to build a meaningful life. This can be through either discovering new meaning or recognizing meaning that's been there all along. In building therapeutic relationships, I aspire to form genuine, authentic connections with patients. My specialities include working with those experiencing existential anxiety or dread, those with complicated grief, trauma survivors, those with persistent suicidal ideation, and those who use drugs and aren't interested in abstinence.
