Are you struggling to stop drinking/using or have you relapsed again? Are you just not happy with your life? It might be best... for us to work together on finding you some relief. Relief from the anxiety of trying to control your substance use or from feeling sad and alone. We can develop a plan for you to feel in control of your life, connected to others, and happy. You are not alone. Anymore.
Clients come to me looking for a therapist who is straight forward and gives honest feedback. Therapy should be a place where you feel heard and your time is well spent. Sessions with me are weekly at first and usually online. Together, we can develop coping strategies for staying sober, navigating tough conversations, and healing trauma.
As an experienced addiction and trauma therapist, I believe it’s important to consider what has happened in your life that is causing the excessive drinking and everyday pain. You don’t have to keep trying to control alcohol use or healing from trauma on your own. Schedule a free consultation via my website. I can’t wait to hear from you.

I can help you with: negative self-talk, substance misuse and being stuck in the past. A typical treatment plan with me is focused on goals we develop in your initial sessions. Working with me includes developing self-compassion, increasing self-esteem and self-worth, and letting the past go. You can expect your thoughts to slow down, become more organized and feelings to become more manageable.

Most clients come to me for EMDR therapy and/or relapse prevention support for PTSD, anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders. I believe all treatment should be trauma informed even if we are not utilizing EMDR as our main approach. Therapy should include thoughts, feelings, and the body. All of these influence behavior. I have seen the quickest symptom relief with EMDR.
