This is why I believe person-centered and solution-based therapies provide the best results.
Substance use disorder can take on a life of its own if left untreated. Mental health issues can prevent a person from realizing their full potential. I welcome you to take the first step in your healing process. I specialize in utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy to confront whatever negative beliefs you may have developed over the years. You have the ability to break the cycle.

You know something needs to change but don’t know what it is or how to start.

You find yourself feeling overwhelmed by everyone and everything much of the time. If you can relate to this, I am here to help. My goal is to work with you in an empowering, compassionate, and collaborative way. I meet you where you are. I strive to help you identify and use your inner resources to turn your perceived “flaws” into strengths.
