Substance Abuse and Addiction Recovery
Substance abuse and addiction have long been stigmatized, making it difficult to admit there’s a problem and even more difficult to seek out treatment. There will be no shaming in our work together. I treat substance abuse and addiction from a multi-dimensional, holistic approach. I will help you identify ways to reduce your use or stop altogether if that is what you’re seeking.
I will use my over 12 years of experience in addiction recovery to help you reach your goals of either harm reduction or abstinence. It’s possible to change your relationship to drugs and alcohol and get the life you’re looking for.

Men's Mental Health
Men’s mental health and treatment is an important issue that it regularly overlooked and even looked down upon. From an early age, most men are told to “suck it up” or “men don’t cry.” It’s through these messages and routine experiences that make it difficult for men to recognize their feelings and seek out treatment. Having a safe space to explore your feelings and experiences that impact your life is the main focus of my treatment with men.
It is when you learn how to feel your feelings without shame or embarrassment peace is possible.

Anxiety
Living with anxiety can feel completely overwhelming, exhausting, and can lead to feelings of hopelessness if not treated. Feeling overloaded by options and hard on yourself for not being better more decisive? Are you crippled by your own inner critic who never lets you enjoy what’s around you, but rather picks out all the way’s you’re messing up?
Therapy can help. Anxiety is the most common mental health concern for adults in the U.S.. The good news is that with the help of therapy, anxiety can subside. Not only that, therapy for anxiety often reduces symptoms and helps to uncover unexpected richness and depth to life.

Depression
Depression is like wearing a heavy blanket that makes it hard to feel alive, connect with others and even get out of bed in the morning. Depression takes the shape in many forms, such as negative self-talk, suicidal thoughts and lack of pleasure. Effective treatment is helpful to reduce and eliminate these symptoms.
I will help you process the underlying issues causing depression so you can move forward feeling free. It’s by addressing these unresolved/underlying issues that you will find improved meaning in life and connection to yourself and others.
