Anyone who has flown in an airplane knows the instruction to "put on your own oxygen mask before helping others", and that idea can be applied broadly to general life, but it's difficult to know what that looks like! If you want to learn more about how to balance your own needs/wants/self-care with the demands of fast paced daily life and/or family needs, we can figure out what "putting on your mask first" would be for your life. Whatever your issue might be...if you need more calm moments throughout your day, less conflict in your parenting, or ways to reduce stress for improved work-life balance, we can find solutions together.

If you or a loved one has problems with substance, I can help. I work with people and families with substance issues- misuse of alcohol, cannabis, stimulants, and other addictive substances. My approach moves at your own pace, without pushing, digging, or agendas. I work with family members and loved ones to provide education and support to reduce feelings of isolation. I specialize in addiction, alcoholism, as well as co-occurring issues underlying addiction such as depression, mood disorders, anxiety, and trauma. Through therapy things start to seem possible that didn’t seem that way before.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety - whether it’s from external demands or internal struggles. Maybe it's social anxiety, "a life transition," or healing from trauma.

Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your challenges, empowering you to move forward - with skill and confidence. I use “treatments that work” (CBT, DBT, mindfulness, etc). But we’ll find what works for YOU. Lastly, I don’t just want you to just “feel better.” I want you to live your best life. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

Words are our most powerful tool in expressing ourselves. It can be liberating and insightful. I can guide you to expressing your most inner thoughts and feelings, a path to exploring, understanding and gaining greater insight into ourselves. It can be difficult to find the time and energy to confront the things that make us unhappy, or to simply explore who we are and how we came to be that way. You may feel "stuck" in certain patterns of relationships, and wish that you were more content. You may want to have someone outside of your experiences to help give you perspective on these issues, but worry about finding the right person
