I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Board Certified-Telemental Health Provider with over fourteen years experience in mental health and substance use disorders. The initial session will consist of a detailed interview and assessment. My approach to therapy is to meet you, the client, where you are at the time. Together we will collaborate to devise a treatment plan based on your primary presenting problem and any secondary problems. All treatment plans are individualized to fit your particular goals for a more fulfilling life. Assessment is ongoing and goals of treatment may change.
I specialize in Depression, Trauma and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, and Substance Use Disorders.
Although I use an eclectic approach to counseling, treatment approaches primarily include Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
