I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) specializing in substance use disorders, dual diagnosis, trauma, and behavioral change. I work with adults navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, PTSD, life transitions, and co-occurring mental health conditions.

My approach is trauma-informed, direct, and results-oriented. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), relapse prevention, and strengths-based therapy to help clients build insight, accountability, and sustainable recovery. Whether you are in early recovery, managing high-functioning anxiety, facing professional burnout, or feeling stuck in self-sabotaging patterns, therapy with me focuses on practical tools and meaningful change.

With extensive experience in substance abuse treatment, mental health treatment, and dual diagnosis care across outpatient and higher levels of care, I understand the complexity of addiction, family systems, and the pressure of appearing “fine” while struggling internally.

If you're ready to break unhealthy cycles, strengthen emotional resilience, and create lasting recovery, I’m here to help.

Approach to Therapy

My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, structured, and results-oriented. I believe insight is important, but change requires action. In our work together, we won’t just talk about patterns — we’ll identify them, challenge them, and build concrete strategies to shift them. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), relapse prevention, and strengths-based interventions to support sustainable change. I work collaboratively with clients to increase emotional awareness, improve coping skills, and strengthen accountability. Therapy with me is active and engaging — you can expect direct feedback, practical tools, and meaningful reflection. I specialize in substance use disorders, dual diagnosis, anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral health concerns. Whether you are navigating early recovery, high-functioning anxiety, burnout, or long-standing trauma, my goal is to help you build resilience, emotional regulation, and a healthier relationship with yourself and others. Healing is not about perfection. It’s about progress, ownership, and learning how to respond differently — even when it’s hard.
