Great to meet you!

Addiction has been a large part of my life and career, I have enjoyed helping families understand and set boundaries with their loved ones in addiction, and those working towards sobriety or reevaluating their relationship with substances or behaviors. I believe in a direct, open, and honest environment when working together to identify the best course of action and coping skills to help you reduce and manage depression, anxiety. Let's see if together we find the path to achieve your goals.

My approach to therapy

I am EMDR trained, and DBT skills trained to provide a comprehensive approach to address life's transitions, addictions, help you identify and build boundaries. I have experience working with adults struggling with Substance Abuse Disorders, Childhood Relational Trauma, and those adapting to diagnosis of mood disorders.
