Have you ever felt this way? You felt too exhausted to try more and had no clue about what was left inside yourself. When your good intentional choices failed you, you wondered what went wrong and didn't know what to choose anymore. Life can bring an unexpected storm that makes you feel defeated, or overwhelmed within the high waves. Don't give up yet because this will be your opportunity to find your way out of the maze. You may still feel uncomfortable sometimes but not desperate any more, and even motivated to take on those challenges.

Hello all! My primary specialization is addiction counseling for both addicts and their loved ones. I work with a multitude of addictive disorders such as alcohol use, drug abuse, gambling, sexual addiction, video game addiction, and other behavioral addictions. These issues have become unmanageable and have hindered my clients ability to function in everyday life. I provide a safe environment to help my clients acquire positive coping skills, education about their addiction, new perspectives on recovery, forming a recovery support network, and a relationship with God. Recovery is about treating the person, not just the addiction.

Life is unpredictable. Do you feel like you are on a rollercoaster...more downs than ups? When times are good, it can feel easier. But when times feel difficult, have you lost pleasure in the things you would normally enjoy? Are "what-ifs" feeding your anxieties and plaguing you with doubts? What's getting in the way? Have you or your family been impacted by addiction? Are you experiencing job stress, family tension, or marital friction? Perhaps you sense frustrations and stress are mounting. Sometimes these challenges turn us upside down and shatter our lives into broken pieces. You are not alone, and help is available to you.
