At the heart of the therapeutic relationship is connection! My passion is working with all types of individuals, believing that on the inside we have more likeness than differences. Together we explore individual and family history and establish goals for therapy. I provide them with education and support to take the steps towards desired change. Some know they have a substance use problem, others aren't sure, and still others have been affected by the disease of addiction throughout their childhood and/or adult relationships.

As Brené Brown says, "we are wired for connection," and I bring my relational side to the therapy space while incorporating various tools for our journey together.

I also offer support and guidance to those who love individuals with substance use struggles, helping them find healing and hope. In my work with couples, we build trust, connection, and greater understanding while also tackling life's challenges.

I have yet to meet anyone whose life experience has been wholly devoid of struggle. It seems to be part of the human condition.

My belief in the transformative gift one can experience through effective therapy was born during my own personal journey of healing and growth, and later solidified through my work with others.
