I specialize in working with individuals in recovery from substance use, those who have faced personal loss in life or are struggling with life transitions and are seeking a place of peace. At the initial interview, we will jointly set treatment goals and determine the course to achieve those goals. In sessions, neuroscience informed skills are utilized to activate and heal emotional pain, examine obstructive thinking and barriers to growth, determine more supportive self choices, increase self and other awareness and to ultimately bring about greater presence, joy and calmness in life.

Do you feel ready for more growth? Maybe you’re dealing with painful unresolved feelings, or navigating a significant life transition. Perhaps you've been in therapy before, but now want to go deeper. If you're like many of my clients, you function well on the outside but still feel unhappy or unfulfilled inside. Even if you can’t put your finger on it, you sense it’s time to make some changes. You have multifaceted emotions you want to work through, and you want a trusted, experienced professional who can help you move through the impasse you’re experiencing so you can fulfill your life potential.

Life is a struggle. While we all have had joys to celebrate and call our own, no one escapes the slings and arrows of life's misfortunes. I believe we always respond to those misfortunes in ways we believe is best for us at the time. Sometimes we have clarity. We can proceed in a way that validates who we are and what's in our best interest. Other times, we may not know what to do or act in a way that does not turn out as well. We suffer as our past ways of handling this situation no longer fits to meet our present needs.
