Seeking assistance can be difficult and takes courage; I provide a safe environment, compassionate, holistic nature and welcome people of all ages. I pride my practice on integrating what are considered non-traditional methods of treatment to supplement our therapy together.

PTSD sucks. It keeps you up at night, makes it hard to relax even on the weekends and drains the happiness out of life. No matter how hard you try you can't help feeling triggered and jumpy. It can make you feel ticked off at the smallest things. You might be withdrawing from others and wanting to shut down because you're losing hope it'll get better. This can lead to depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems and more. If it feels like you're going through the motions and barely holding it together, you're in the right place. Helping trauma survivors is my passion.

Intervention Therapists

How does an intervention work?

An intervention is a planned, structured meeting in which a person’s family or friends voice concerns about the person’s behavior and its consequences; the goal is for the person to accept treatment. In this meeting, the person’s loved ones (often with the guidance of a trained interventionist) share how the person’s behavior has harmed them and the consequences if the person refuses treatment. They collectively ask the person to accept a proposed treatment plan.

How effective are interventions?

There isn’t extensive research on the efficacy of interventions, in part because success is difficult to measure. Individuals often enter addiction treatment after an intervention, for example, but treatment itself may not work, especially if the person only begins due to external pressure from others rather than due to internal motivation to change. However, if all other attempts at helping someone have failed, an intervention may be worth exploring.

What are the limitations of interventions?

While a friend or family member’s intentions are in the right place in wanting to help a loved one through an intervention, there are significant limitations to the approach. The surprising nature of the event can make the person feel ambushed or judged. They may feel embarrassed or ashamed as a result, and relationships may be strained or broken. This can make it difficult for the individual to be receptive to the concerns of their loved ones and the interventionist.

Are there alternatives to interventions?

Rather than confronting a loved one through an intervention, an effective and less pressured approach is to create space for a caring, open, one-on-one conversation. This works best if the loved one asks open-ended questions, listens attentively to the answers, and frames their observations and statements with concern rather than judgment. More than one conversation may be needed, but change can take root over time.
