I empower clients to take control of their lives. I specialize in working with teens, women and families who suffer from substance use addiction. I have completed thousands of clinical hours working in residential treatment facilities, ranging from detox care to outpatient treatment. Addiction is difficult; it is a disease that can break families and communities apart. The lies, the deceit, the shame, the guilt… addiction is a pervasive disease which worsens with time. If you struggle with substance use addiction, anxiety or depression, you have come to the right place, I am here to help you.

Be a better you. People seek out therapy for several reasons. Self-exploration, growth, change, and learning new coping strategies are just a few reasons. Finding a therapist to guide and support you along the way will make these tasks simpler and possibly even enjoyable. I treat individuals, couples, and families looking to find relief from emotional and psychological troubles and become their best self. While treatment for Asperger's Syndrome, Anxiety, Trauma, and Depression are my specialties, I also work with people who struggle with addiction, relationship problems, sexuality uncertainties, and low self-esteem.

In my work as a therapist, I am deeply passionate about helping young women who find themselves in a pattern of unhealthy relationships. Through the lens of attachment theory, I work with my clients to understand how early experiences with caregivers shape their expectations and interactions in romantic relationships. Many young women who come to me feel trapped in a cycle—moving from one relationship to the next, repeating familiar dynamics that leave them feeling unfulfilled, anxious, or even broken. At the core of these experiences is often a longing for connection, love, and security that goes unmet.

It takes courage to reach out and talk to someone about your pain. Experiencing feelings of anxiety, anger, and sadness (due to relational challenges and/or life events) can be frustrating! Any kind of change, (past, present, potential future) can alter your state of balance, causing you to feel isolated and alone. In our work together, we will focus on how to identify and manage issues that are impacting your life. With over 20 years of experience, I am here to listen and help you find some peace (and coping skills) on this part of your journey.

Families are required to manage multiple stressors and expectations in day to day life. Over time, we see the toll it takes on them. Couples struggle with communication, intimacy and sharing common goals. Finding time to nurture the relationship and improve closeness sometimes involves outside support. If left untreated, we see couples and families experiencing depression, anxiety and often times separation. Regaining connections, coping and feeling better about yourself is the goal of my practice. Having an accurate assessment, diagnosis and treatment plan is the best place to begin.

Is your teenager showing signs of depression or unmanageable anxiety and you don’t know how to help? As a parent who loves their child deeply, I can only imagine how hard it is to watch your child go through this. I find that the pressures placed on teenagers in today’s environment are overwhelming.

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.
