I'm experienced in working with a wide variety of issues, including sexual and substance addictions, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, sexuality, relationship and intimacy problems.
A lot of us have a hard time asking for help. Fear, shame, or needing to be self-sufficient are feelings that can get in the way of recognizing when we need help--and reaching out and asking for it. My approach to therapy creates a safe place where sensitive, painful or scary feelings can be openly explored without judgment. We form a partnership to figure out what is going on and how to move forward. I'm actively engaged in our work--it's a partnership, after all--to help you overcome problem behaviors and develop better ways of coping. I am a Clinician with over 10 years experience in Colorado and California.

I began as a therapist in 2018, volunteering for Salvation Army for over 2 years as a counselor in their residential rehabilitation facility in Honolulu, seeing the great need to reach families and individuals with substance abuse and overwhelming hardships. Following this position, I found a deeper passion for working with Hawaii’s youth as an Intensive In-home therapist, with certification in treating anxiety disorders in children and adolescents. After relocating to Colorado in 2021, I started working with a diverse population, addressing a wide variety of challenges, collaborating with clients to find beneficial solutions.

Do you sometimes feel like you have no idea why you do the things you do? Sometimes you surprise yourself in how you treat your partner or your kids? The people I work with are vibrant and creative, yet tend to overthink, get overwhelmed and often overindulge. Substance misuse and addiction don’t have to be part of your story but I specialize in that area too. My clients are seeking inner-peace in a demanding, exhausting world and my hope is that it doesn't feel forced or excessive; instead, it feels like coming home to yourself. The way I conceptualize what you bring to therapy is viewing what IS versus what you need to 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.
