SPECIALTIES
ADDICTION COUNSELING
I specialize in treating all types of addictions including substance and behavioral addictions. My approach is abstinence-based and I am a big advocate for the 12-step program. My approach to addiction counseling focuses on balancing immediate needs with exploring the deeper roots of addiction. I help clients stabilize current behaviors while uncovering the underlying causes, guiding them toward lasting recovery and a more balanced life.
DEPRESSION & ANXIETY
I help clients who are struggling with depression and anxiety along with addiction treatment to gain insight into their condition and develop coping strategies to manage their symptoms.
Sex, Love & Pornography Addiction
Issues anywhere near the sexual realm can be scary, confusing, and uncomfortable to deal with on your own. Finding someone trustworthy doesn't necessarily take away the fear of facing those Shadows, and sometimes they are the last person you work on these issues with.
STRESS & TRAUMA
After stabilization from addictive behaviors has occurred, for clients who have experienced trauma or are dealing with high levels of stress, I help clients develop coping strategies to manage their symptoms and work through their trauma.
