Spirituality is the foundation of the form of synthesized addiction and mental health counseling I offer.

Accepting new clients now, in OR and WA!

Thinking of cutting back on substance use after seeing its impact on your relationships and health? And yet, does it feel like the only way to disconnect from stress and reconnect with others is with the help of alcohol or drugs? If you’re struggling to build healthier relationships to substances and others, it might be just the time for support. I avidly believe that everyone has the natural ability to heal, especially when provided with a nonjudgmental space to process life’s challenges. Guided by your own self-selected goals, therapy is intended to blaze a path forward using the strengths and values already within you.

Isolation with these matters only serves to create more distance between you and managing your life. What I do is give you the tools to cut through the twisted patterns of your life and create the new path.
