Great to meet you!

Hello! I specialize in substance abuse therapy and providing supportive therapy for family members and friends of addicts and alcoholics. I help my clients build coping skills to navigate life’s struggles, and facilitate the processing of trauma that continues to negatively impact their relationships and the way they interact with the world. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process, and you deserve someone that is flexible enough to meet you where you are!

My approach to therapy

I have years of experience assisting clients 18 years and older ease their suffering from anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, familial conflict, strained interpersonal relationships, arduous romantic relationships, and anything the chaos of life may throw their way.

What you can expect from me

Although I tend to utilize dialectical and cognitive behavioral therapeutic interventions (CBT and DBT), I am always researching new modalities and techniques that may suit my client’s individual needs. I use these techniques to help my clients gain new perspectives, interrupt harmful thought patterns, and build patience and compassion for themselves and others. I will provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to unburden yourself and manifest personal growth.
