I have a deep passion for helping trauma survivors, combat veterans, and people who are struggling with addiction to accomplish and sustain meaningful recoveries in their lives. I provide a non-judgmental, compassionate, and safe therapeutic space to help them achieve their goals. The most rewarding thing for me as a therapist is helping a client work through and heal from the trauma and shame that is so commonly the underlying cause of their substance use, addiction, or mental health challenges.
I've successfully worked with many clients who felt trapped in a cycle of self-destructive, shame-based thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by helping them learn how to liberate themselves, develop healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and being, and begin to experience self-compassion, post-traumatic growth, and existential meaning and purpose in their lives.
Please reach out to me if you think we might be a good fit to work together. I would be honored to help you achieve your goals.
