One of my greatest passions involves helping people through various transitions of life. I offer therapy for Grief, Loss, Substance Use Disorders, Trauma, Behavioral Addictions, and Spiritual Direction. I believe our mental health is intricately connected to our emotional and spiritual well-being. There are times we find ourselves choosing unhealthy coping tools to redirect self-defeating, self-loathing, and self-sabotaging thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through a multi-disciplined approach I'll help you identify those negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and reconnect to the emotions you've grown numb to.
I specialize in Addictive Behaviors. This includes chemical (alcohol & drugs) and non-chemical (shopping, gambling, etc.) addictions. Addictive behavior surfaces to help redirect less-than-favorable thoughts, feelings and behaviors. I offer therapy that helps one identify and challenge those thoughts, feelings, and behaviors for a healthier response.
The 2020 Pandemic triggered unresolved emotions from past events for many of us as we were forced to adapt to a new normal. Teletherapy took on a fresh meaning as people everywhere were afforded new opportunities to address old and new concerns. There has never been a better time to invest in your peace of mind and start the path towards healing.
