Facing the decision to seek help for a substance use disorder (SUD) can be one of the most fearful places a person visits. My passion is helping individuals/families walk through this dark period. During my 10+ years of clinical practice, I have helped numerous individuals/families achieve their goal of sobriety and recovery. Through my experience, I quickly develop rapport, provide support and compassion, and assist individuals/families to understand root causes that lead to substance misuse. Please reach out if you're thinking you need help! I diligently work to see any/all clients who reach out, in-person or via telehealth.

A relationship seldom gets better on its own, but we often “hope” that it will. Don’t wait until you loose hope to seek relationship counseling, or counseling for any other issues you may be facing. The longer you wait, the more difficult each day can become. Self-help books often generalize, and medication often fails to deal with the cause of the imbalance. With counseling, I provide a personalized examination of your issues so that you may learn how to overcome them and create a life of relationships and experiences that you will greet with great enthusiasm.

Pornography addiction can significantly impact your life and relationships but there is hope for recovery. I’m not just a mental health professional, I’ve been “you” for many years. I understand firsthand the personal struggles in your life and committed relationships that come with uncontrollable pornography use. The endless stream of attractive women a few clicks away on Pornhub, Onlyfan or Social Media is hard to quit even with all your willpower and promise to quit for the sake of your relationship.

I truly believe that a skilled and compassionate therapist can be a great asset to individuals that are looking for a consultant/coach to assist/challenge them to a healthier life style. My personal approach to counseling is educational & directive as I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy to promote healthy thinking and positive outcomes. I assist my clients to work with their day to day/chronic stressors to establish healthy coping skills with things, places and people that are not changeable in their lives. I do treat my clients the same way as I would want me or my family members to be treated with respect, compassion and competence.

As an attorney-turned-therapist, I help clients struggling with the demanding world of high-stakes professions or owning a business. I help couples struggling with the conflict that can come from these demands as well. When you're striving for success, trying to keep everyone else happy, you can easily find that you've lost yourself in the process. I know what it's like to work in a job that you don't entirely hate, but where you aren't really happy either. And I know the toll it takes on your personal life and relationships. That's where I can help you. I specialize in individuals and couples struggling with these types of issues.

Have you found yourself engaging in similar distressing behaviors, thought patterns, or relational dynamics despite your best efforts to change? My approach aims to address your current distress as well as work with you to investigate why this suffering is taking place to begin with. I believe unwanted behaviors, emotions, and thoughts are illustrating something about your experience that has yet to be understood. Therapy provides a relationship in which you can begin to make sense of what your suffering is saying. My hope is that in working together, you can journey towards long lasting life fulfillment instead of simply coping.
