Areas of Expertise

“I have worked for more than 25 years with individuals in all phases of recovery from substance and alcohol abuse and dependency. I currently see clients in both individual treatment and my Early Recovery Group. Many of these clients have co-occurring mental health diagnoses. I aim to work closely with the Psychiatrist and referring therapist as it is extremely important for the welfare of the client. I am constantly studying and updating my practice which is informed by my longtime study of martial arts, visual arts, and more recently hypnotherapy. I am comfortable being in the room with a client’s anxiety and depression, however extreme, while working to lift their debilitating symptoms. I am interested in working with people who are in crisis and transition, whether in their career, relationship or physical health.”

Approach to Therapy

“My office is a safe and nonjudgmental environment where we will work. I believe that change is desirable. To this end I put into practice theory from Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy. I believe that talking through problems is important but equally important to recovery is taking action.”

Interest in TherapySafetyNet
