I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor specializing in co-occurring disorders. My focus includes substance use, anxiety/depression, adjustment issues, and life transitions. I use a strength-based, individualized approach, meeting each person where they are at in their life. I work from a harm reduction perspective utilizing MI and CBT. I have years of experience working with those in active addiction, long term sobriety, and recovery. I work with young adults to collaborate on the best way to approach their concerns and/or goals to help them improve their quality of life and to better manage life stressors.
