“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” Carl Gustav Jung. I think this Jung’s quote is the best answer to the questions: “What is therapy?”, “Do I need therapy?”, and “Why to be in therapy?”, this is the best place to start. When we find ourselves in the darkness, overwhelmed by depressed feelings or anxious thoughts, feeling helpless or maybe even feeling trapped, losing hope and not being able to see the way out, it is hard to remember that you are not alone. I believe in the inner depth, uniqueness and complexity of human beings.

I have several years of experience as a music therapist working with children, adolescents, and adults dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and eating disorders.
Life can have difficult moments. Sometimes, those moments add up and can lead to difficult thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that feel unmanageable. When our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors feel unmanageable, it can be difficult to get our needs met. When our needs go unmet in relationship, work, and life, it can lead to deep pain and suffering. My philosophy on healing involves exploring the source of our challenges and resolving our unmet needs. Therapy can provide a space for you to identify and explore your unmet needs while learning tools to empower you to get your needs met in healthful and healing ways.

Understanding the profound impact of addiction and early life experiences on our ability to connect with others, I bring a unique perspective to my practice.
I work with clients of all ages, genders, and backgrounds, each with their own unique experiences and traumas. Yet, a common question persists: "What does a healthy relationship look like?" and "How do I find one?" My goal is to help you explore and define what a fulfilling and healthy relationship means for you, beyond societal expectations and towards your true desires. Often, we are too close to our problems to see them clearly. These blind spots can weaken us, but they do not have to define us. I collaborate with my clients to explore uncharted aspects of themselves, identify red flags, and develop strategies for positive change

Addiction Therapists
What is the best therapy for addiction?
Addiction treatment will be tailored to the individual. People seeking help for addiction—whether with a psychotherapist, in an outpatient clinic, or in a residential program—should expect to engage in multiple types of treatments, sometimes including medication. For anyone recovering from addiction, avoiding situations in which one has typically used a substance is essential, as is the support of close connections. Since substance use disorders tend to co-occur with underlying mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression, those must also be addressed as part of any recovery plan.
How long does therapy for addiction take?
There is no set timeline for recovery from addiction. Patients and their families should expect the work to last several months, if not longer. Residential treatment programs may be based on a stay of 30, 60, or 90 days, with continuing work after release, but only about 1 percent of people are treated in such facilities. Ceasing use is just the first step; therapy to help maintain abstinence and effect behavior change must follow. The process of recovery, neuroscience has shown, involves brain cells recovering the capacity to respond to natural sources of reward and restore control over the impulse to use. Another definition of recovery is restoring voluntary control over one’s substance use and retaking all of one’s previous responsibilities.
How effective is drug addiction treatment?
Substance use disorders are treatable and remission is achievable for many who seek recovery; by some estimates, more than three-quarters of people who become addicted to alcohol or drugs recover. But that success rarely occurs quickly or on a set timeline; relapse is not only common, but many therapists and clinicians view it as a normal part of the process—not always a sign that a person has returned to addiction, but a signal that their treatment should be adjusted to help them regain control. Overall, research suggests, five years after the end of substance use, one’s risk of relapse is no greater than that of others who had not faced addiction. Other experts believe that complete abstinence is not the only measure of recovery, and that, through effective treatment, many people can learn to control their use.
How can you get addiction treatment for someone?
The most important factor in recovery from addiction is widely understood to be an individual’s commitment to change. For that reason,“interventions” in which friends and family gather to urge or force someone to begin immediate treatment often backfire; even when such efforts do lead someone to begin treatment, they may be less likely to stay than those who are self-driven. Still, family members can play an important role in supporting an individual who seeks help and can take part in family therapy as one element of a loved one’s treatment.
