I specialize in working with addictions such as Alcohol Use Disorders, Substance Use Disorders, and Sexual Addiction/Problematic Sexual Behavior. I am passionate about helping my clients find recovery. My approach is collaborative, transparent, and practical. My entire professional career has been dedicated to the study of addiction and trauma recovery. I have worked as a primary therapist in private practice, IOP, and PHP settings treating addictions. In therapy I utilize REBT, a blend of motivational interviewing, solution focused therapy, Advanced Accelerated Resolution Therapy (certified), and am EMDR certified. View 7 Photos I have a "hands on" approach and I am not passive in how I provide care. I listen intently, provide feedback, and appropriately give assignments when needed. My primary goal as a therapist is to provide insight and value in our work, giving you access to tools and resources that help you find a meaningful recovery. I specialize in individual counseling and intensive trauma work, addressing root causes beneath the behavior. I value appropriate directness and well timed humor. Recovery work is hard, but isn't always stone-cold serious, so I love to help you find healing and light hearted moments on your journey. I'm grateful to be a small part of your journey!
