Evening sessions available! Accepting new clients! Limited income-based (sliding scale) spots available. I do not have an "ideal" client. Instead, I strive to be the "ideal" therapist for each client. Every client presents with different problems, different goals, and different motivators. Therefore, it is my job as the therapist to meet each client where they are at and provide them with the services they need and deserve. The one thing that I believe all clients have in common is the desire to take action that will promote them to a higher level of functioning in their every day life.
I specialize in working with Substance Use Disorders, anxiety, depression and stress. Although I specialize in these issues, I also have extensive experience with clients of all ages treating trauma, grief, codependency, and other mental health issues. Don't take my word for it! Check out my endorsements from other therapists who use me as a referral source!
I would love to speak with you! Contact me today to begin your journey to a new life! NEW: Certified SYMBIS (Save Your Marriage Before It Starts) facilitator! SYMBIS is a phenomenal tool for engaged couples and married couples looking to improve their relationship! Contact me today for more info!
