Many of us struggle with feelings we don't know how to cope with, and behaviors we don't feel good about - and we don't know how to change. It's difficult and frustrating to feel stuck. Working with a therapist provides support and connection as we learn to better cope with our challenges and promote change. Whether we wish to process issues from the past, address challenges in our present, or focus on a hopeful future - therapy is a validating and affirming space. Building a positive professional relationship is the cornerstone of effective therapy. To create a meaningful connection, I bring authenticity, candor, and humor. My speciality includes the intersection of substance use disorders and clinical mental health issues, as well as working with individuals in recovery. Contacting a professional for therapy can feel intimidating, scary, and/or awkward. Please know that I meet all inquiry with kindness and compassion. The human experience includes difficulty, and it's okay to ask for help. You have inherent worth, and your stories have value.
