Bio
My superpower is seeing the good in people who can't see their own goodness. Treating people with addiction and trauma issues has been a passion of mine, Over the years in agency and then in private practice i found my sweet spot. My ideal day is helping someone heal and watching them learn how to thrive, release, and reimagine their lives.
I provide psychotherapy, with individuals and in groups. I have expertise in relapse prevention. Motivational Interviewing training has taught me to be an excellent listener. I provide supportive therapy, mindfulness training, DBT, CBT, or whatever is the most appropriate treatment for the moment. It will be unique to you and your circumstances. If you need a DWI assessment or treatment for impaired drivers, that is additional service I offer. Looking forward to walking this path with you. Let's talk soon.
