Feeling like 'one-size-fits-all' doesn't work for you? My affordable, practical and efficient phone, video, or in person addiction counseling can help you achieve balanced living.
Struggling with addiction and feel rehab isn’t an option? Leaving your family, job, school and responsibilities for an extended period of time is not always needed to get yourself healthy and on track. If you or a loved one are struggling with addiction, I know the challenges of this lifestyle. Being caught in the cycle of addiction is hard--feelings of fear, failure, guilt, and shame. You may have tried stopping on your own, only to find yourself engaging in the same unhelpful behavior. Breaking this cycle alone is tough! Counseling may be more effective for you than rehab. I specialize in moderation & abstinence based approaches.

Do you often face challenges with emotion regulation, feelings of isolation, struggle with self-acceptance, family or relationship problems, and trauma? Overcoming the challenges of struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, family systems, or borderline personality disorder can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship, deconstructing the POC narrative surrounding therapy, authenticity, compassion, and the use of gentle challenges to help you work towards overcoming life's challenges through individualized and creative approaches.

Do you feel like past wounds are preventing you from moving forward? Perhaps you have a difficult time understanding why you continue to repeat unhealthy behaviors or feel ashamed for not living up to your own or others' expectations. You probably feel a mixture of emotions: motivated to change, but afraid of feeling uncomfortable and vulnerable. Maybe you doubt your ability to change or question if talking about painful issues can actually help you feel better. Having these thoughts and feelings is a normal part of the growth process.

Most people who seek counseling do so because something in their life is not quite right. Maybe you have already identified what is off in your life – depression, anxiety, a toxic relationship, a past trauma, a painful life transition. Maybe you are the family member or friend that people generally rely on; you give to others freely but sometimes feel as though you are running on “low” and have few places or people to turn to for your own needs. Or perhaps you just know that something is off, that you could be happier or more fulfilled than you are currently.

In addition to therapy at my office, I offer online sessions, Positive Parenting Classes (online and in person) , and Parent Coaching.
My commitment to my clients is to provide them with a welcoming place in which they can safely share their struggles and receive genuine support. People generally don't seek help from a therapist until they reach the point where their typical coping skills are no longer working. If you are at that point and need help discovering new methods to help you make it through life's challenges, I can help.
