About
I am a licensed clinical social worker and a licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor. I have over 24 years of post-graduate direct practice experience working with clients of diverse backgrounds and presenting problems in various levels of treatment. I have discovered a passion to help people overcome and recover from substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders using a client-centered approach to treatment. I specialize in treating addictions, trauma, anxiety and depressive disorders. I fully believe that people people can overcome and heal from wounds caused by addiction, trauma and other mental health issues. Emotional and psychological trauma is the result of extraordinarily stressful events that shatter your sense of security, and can make you feel helpless. I believe that talk therapy from a holistic (the whole person) approach can and does help people to experience real change that will improve their health and wellness, live a self-directed life, and strive to reach their full potential.
My style/approach in therapy is to foster an environment of change and healing by being supportive, warm, non judgmental, as well as being honest and direct. I believe therapy should be flexible and tailored to each unique person . Some of the evidence based treatment modalities I use include; Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Narrative Exposure Therapy and Motivational Enhancement Therapy.
