Addiction Counseling

As a specialist in addiction therapy, I provide personalized, evidence-based care for those struggling with substance use disorders. I create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their challenges and develop effective coping strategies. My expertise allows me to guide individuals on their journey to recovery, helping them reclaim their lives.

I view substance misuse as a coping mechanism that seems to work...until it doesn't. Maybe anonymous peer support groups such as AA/NA work for you, maybe you just don't connect with them. Either way, I am here to help you figure out what you see as the best version of you and to develop healthier coping skills that help keep you aligned with your best Self. No judgment, no shame.

Working with addiction is about accepting who you are while also asking you to change. People with addictions are blamed, and yes you need to be held responsible, but you also need to find the part of yourself that knows that you didn't consciously choose this for yourself and they you want better...in spite of all of the evidence others have of you being selfish, uncaring, and irresponsible.

To some degree, we all use behaviors to escape reality and cope with suffering. You or your loved ones may be concerned that your relationship to substances or repetitive behaviors has become a barrier to your healthy functioning. Let's explore this relationship further and gather insight into how you might learn to meet your physical, emotional, and spiritual needs in ways that do not limit your potential.

Are you struggling with behaviors or patterns that you can't seem to control? Addiction Counseling can help.

I've been a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) since 2009. I have extensive experience helping people who are struggling with their substance use. There are many paths to recovery. My approach is holistic because all aspects of our lives need to feel fulfilled. I believe in meeting clients where they are, and that's where we start. I create a workbook for each client based on their goals and needs, to support them in their journey of recovery.

I have lived experience in this arena, having once been a problem drinker, and have been an addictions therapist for many years. My approach to addictions is eclectic but the centerpiece is trauma informed cognitive-behavior therapy. I am experienced with 12-step as well as other methods of recovery such as SMART Recovery.

I have worked at every level of substance abuse and addiction treatment, from inpatient to outpatient to community education. I work with individuals coming in through self-referral and those with court involvement. Glad to help you work on your addictive compulsions in intensive or regular outpatient treatment.

As a trained addictions counselor, I work with people who are experiencing emotional pain and want it to stop. We find that pain in a variety of ways and the suffering feels completely overwhelming. I get it. I overstand. Let's turn and face that something inside of that desperately wants to be healed.

I have worked with this populations for over 3 years in different settings. Harm reduction is the core of my work with clients but this is not the only method I use.

I leverage a person-centric approach with motivational interviewing, as well as I leverage advanced EMDR protocols (such as DeTUR and FSAP).

I'm in expert in this area because I completed professional training over 30 years ago and have frequently used it in my practice to help numerous people.
