Are you wondering if your drug or alcohol use is becoming a problem? Do you know it is a problem, but cannot seem to control it? Or maybe you engage in a different sort of self-sabotaging behavior, such as binge-eating, compulsive spending or undermining your success at work. Self-sabotaging behaviors, including drug and alcohol misuse, are actions we choose but they feel automatic and inescapable. Often, they serve to maintain status quos, prevent growth, and imprison us in unhappy situations. I understand the pain and hopelessness that comes from repeating the same mistakes. Overcoming self destructive patterns is possible.
My natural ability to connect with my clients, tune into their needs, and understand their unique experiences sets me apart from others in my field. Together we pinpoint what is preventing them from living the life they want, as well as develop strategies for change. Building self-esteem by recognizing strengths is another facet of my approach.
It is a privilege to be trusted with people’s innermost thoughts and feelings; as such, I approach therapeutic relationships from a place of genuine care. During our initial phone consultation, I will aim to get a better idea of how I can help and answer any questions you may have for me. I look forward to working with you.
