Addiction is generally birth from pain, insecurity, despair, and loneliness. For a brief period, it gives a reprieve for all they firing pain receptors in your head and heart. Once it begins to settle then shame, disappointment, and self-loathing can begin to live inside of you pushing you to want to feel something good for even a second. Addiction feels like a trap that you can't break free from, but addiction also lies. You can break free and you can be healed and you can be whole. It won't be easy, but I will be here to walk with you without judgement along the way. We also offer SAP assessments as needed.

Available for Online Therapy

In my approach to addiction counseling, I create a nonjudgmental and supportive space where clients can openly explore the roots of their behaviors and patterns. I integrate evidence-based strategies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing to guide clients in understanding their triggers and building healthier coping mechanisms. By fostering self-compassion and resilience, I help clients develop personalized strategies for recovery, strengthen their motivation for change, and rebuild their lives with renewed confidence and hope.
