About My Clients
Have you been wondering or thinking that you might have a substance use issue? Does the idea of going to a dingy room full of strangers turn you off? Maybe your life is too hectic, and you don't have time to drive to a session or even re-arrange the other stuff you have to do? I totally get that, and that's why I have a flexible practice. We can connect online, when it's convenient for YOU. Reach out today, and let's figure it out together!
My Background and Approach
I've worked a variety of places over the past 16 years, including drug courts, military bases, and methadone treatment. I use a combination of person-centered and motivational interviewing, and take a harm-reduction approach. That's a fancy way of saying I'm going to listen to you and work with you on what you want, not what I think is best. I'm a licensed clinical addiction specialist (LCAS), certified clinical supervisor (CCS) and certified professional coach (CPC). I'm conveniently on your cell, tablet or laptop. I use Zoom for sessions, since it's so easy and popular. Get in touch with me: I'll do everything I can to make this easy on you.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone should have access to treatment and recovery. Most people think that treatment is confrontational and directive, with someone telling you what to do and how to do it. The thing is: that doesn't really work. You're the expert on your life, not me. There are no requirements to attend meetings or anything you don't want to do. It doesn't matter what you've done or how badly things look right now. You deserve a professional counselor who is not going to judge or shame you, no matter who you are.
