I work with individuals, families and groups with challenging behaviors - addictions, trauma care, co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns, including psychosis. I work to promote person-driven care, always working to help empower and focus the people I work with toward desired and meaningful change. I enjoy working with adolescents and children, as well as adults. In addition to the above issues, I also have experience working with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, pregnancy counseling and issues which emgerge from life transitions. I also provide EMDR.
I use clinical techniques depending on the needs of the individual or families: Motivational Interviewing, Conitive Behavioral Therapy, including CBT for Psychosis (CBTp), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Also have used Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in groups and with individuals. I to provide assessment using the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics.
I am trained in a number of evidence based practices and I use this knowledge to choose the best approach for the individual (s) in front of me at any given time. I work to be flexible while also providing care using models that have backing in research.

I work with clients to address various behavioral issues, most commonly, addiction-related concerns. I create a treatment plan and use interventions based on what the client wants and when they need it.

I often use Motivational Interviewing as an approach to help you get "unstuck" and focus on the types of concerns you would like to address. I often use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients come into the present moment so they can work toward living in a way that is consistent with their values. Depending on needs, I use DBT and variety of CBT approaches to build skills.
