I am a seasoned, eclectic therapist who is trained in DBT, EMDR, SOM-EX, and Dr. Patrick Carne's 30-task model to treat multiple addictions. I work with my clients using multiple methods to create a safe place to explore issues that aid in mood stabilization, use of personal recovery tools, and use of community resources to aid in healing. I do individual therapy to help my clients achieve their goals of their individualized treatment plan. I have over 20 years of experience working with people with compulsive behaviors, people with mood issues, and partners and families of these two populations.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
