I work with clients who struggle with addiction, depression, anxiety, past life events and trauma that prevent them from accepting themselves and fully embracing joy in their lives. Each person must confront their own challenges but don't always have the tools needed to reach their life goals. A trusted professional can be a helpful partner in walking this path with you until you have the skills/insights needed to continue your journey confidently. I offer a safe and respectful place to look at yourself, your situation, consider alternatives and practice new skills with my support to help reach your goals.
I utilize CBT, strength-based, self-psychology and short-term results-oriented approaches to assist clients in reaching their goals. I have extensive experience with substance use disorders along with couples/family/co-dependency and grief work resulting from overdose. Depression, anxiety, anger management, and life coaching are specialized areas as well.
Everyone encounters life experiences that block their way to happiness, it's not easy to ask for help but most often this is the beginning to solving the problem and finding the joy that you seek. I offer a safe and non-judgemental approach to help you achieve your goals. Please call for a free telephone consultation to see if this is a good fit for you.
