I can do the best with clients who were raised in dysfunctional families as I was and who self-medicated that feeling of not being heard, little emotional availability, the scapegoating and gaslighting that surounds you, questioning your own reality, and all the damage that can come from it. I know what it's like to be told that you "shouldn't feel or think like that" or you’re "too sensitive, too dramatic, or too deep". My specialty is substance use disorder, I am knowledgeable about most substances (licit & illicit) of abuse. I am versed in various cultures & religions, specifically the Italian-American Catholic culture.

Communities, families, and individuals make up the world where we exist. When we start feel apart from that world, alone in that world, or unsettled, having an empathetic and compassionate person to confide in can make all the difference. In addition to substance use and other co-occurring issues, I also specialize in working with individuals and families that are involved with the criminal justice system. Having a pending charge, awaiting sentencing, or having a loved one that is struggling with these issues can increase anxiety and depression, along with feelings of shame and loneliness. There is hope, and you are not alone.

If someone asks you how you think you’re doing in your life, what would you say? We may see signs that our life has gotten off course. Sometimes, others share their concerns for us, but we believe we can manage it ourselves. I meet each client where they are on their journey. Some have endured a difficult past or ongoing stress. Others have been through a traumatic event such as an accident, or the loss of a loved one through death or a break-up. Often, we don't recognize the impact of emotional toll, disguised as anxiety or other symptoms. My work helps you to connect the dots, providing support as you (re)build your best life.
