I have experience working in mental health and substance use disorders and began entry level into the field in 2010. I utilize a holistic approach of therapies and modalities through experience in my training in EMDR, Motivational Interviewing techniques, CBT techniques, and Expressive Art therapies and techniques to include journaling, meditation, and visualization. I use a trauma focused approach and meet clients where they are through empathy and compassion, guide clients where they want to be in their healing process and prioritize connection to self through encouragement of self-worth and value.

In complex trauma things were never okay and just continued to get worse. The subtle feeling that something is not right escalates into a bulldozer of concerning or scary symptoms. You may struggle with feelings of numbness, disconnection, and emptiness. Or you may feel everything too loudly and all at once. Your best attempt at survival might be compulsive behaviors or substance use. And you might have done things that you regret. Life has not been easy for you, and now you want to stop the cycle.

I believe everyone has the power to change but may not know how to do so. A person may think that just because they've been doing things "all their life" doesn't mean that it's for the rest of their life. I have over ten years experience helping kids,families and adults change behaviors/patterns that cause them problems in their lives. I treat depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction/alcoholism, divorce, relationship issues, panic, phobias, chronic pain, self esteem, bullying, ADHD, OCD, behavior problems, parenting issues, bipolar, anger issues, autism, aspbergers and personality disorders.

I strive to position myself alongside people while they embark on their personal journey of healing, restoration, and growth. Often the barriers to clients' success include issues related to codependency, self-image, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, poor communication and conflict resolution skills, and ineffective coping strategies. The work that I do with individuals, couples, and families is designed to partner with clients as we identify and develop their resources. Clients are then empowered to interact with people and situations in a way that fosters continued healing and growth

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.
