Are you struggling with co-dependency, addictions or trauma? Are you processing losses from your family of origin? Would you like to improve your relationship? I have worked for 15+ years serving child, adolescent and adult clients dealing with relationship issues, sexual abuse, addictions, trauma, eating disorders, depression, and anxiety. I use a combination of cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, and expressive therapies to facilitate the personal growth process. I have many tools in my practice. Let's find what works for you! We all have struggles and challenges in life. We are on this journey together. When we begin looking at the places that challenge us, we can find tools for change. Change is possible. It takes tremendous courage to reach out. Honor yourself !

Do you finally want to address a substance abuse or other addiction problem? I have a vast amount of experience working with people and their families who suffer from a variety of addictions such as drug and alcohol abuse, sexual addiction, eating disorders, and compulsive gambling. I also see individuals, couples, and families for a variety of other issues such as depression, anxiety, and stress management. In a safe, supportive, confidential atmosphere, we can work together to address many of your life issues previously mentioned. I primarily work with adults but also see adolescents who present with alcohol and drug issues. I believe addiction to be primarily a disease of the brain, which means people suffering from them should always be treated with respect and care. I use Motivational Enhancement therapy with my clients which mean we are partners in the therapeutic process working toward a goal of life improvement and self-enjoyment.
