I specialize in working with addiction (alcohol use disorders, substance use disorders, and sexual addiction/problematic sexual behavior) and I am passionate about helping my clients find recovery. My approach is collaborative, transparent, and practical. I care deeply about the clients I work with, and am grateful for the opportunity to help clients heal. My entire professional career has been dedicated to the study of addiction and trauma recovery, and have worked as a primary therapist in private practice, IOP (Intensive Outpatient Programming), and PHP (Partial Hospitalization Programming) settings treating addiction. I specialize in REBT (Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy), and use a blend of motivational interviewing, acceptance and commitment therapy, solution focused therapy, and various other techniques to help my clients envision and plan for an achievable future. My therapeutic style is solution oriented, caring, appropriately direct, and value well timed humor :) Recovery work is hard, but isn't always stone-cold serious, so love to help you find healing and light hearted moments on your journey.
I have a "hands on" approach, and am not passive in how I provide care. I listen intently, provide feedback, and appropriately give assignments when needed. My primary goal as a therapist is to provide insight and value in our work, giving you access to tools and resources that help you find a meaningful recovery.
I specialize in trauma work post residential treatment, and work closely with anyone you chose on your team of recovery care. I work with recovery coaches, other therapists, education consultants, treatment consultants, and psychiatrists to provide the highest quality of care post treatment. I work closely to assess if residential treatment or a higher level of care is needed, and have intentionally built relationships with various treatment centers (for drug, alcohol, sex addiction, and primary mental health disorders) to provide appropriate referrals. I'm passionate about helping my clients find tangible solutions and strategies for growth, and am committed to seeing growth and progress in all those I work with. Other random facts about me: I love cabins, and being in the woods (although I'm not a hiker, I'm a fan of a good cup of coffee with an incredible view). I am a mom of two kiddos, and have been married for almost a decade to my husband John. We have two adorable but dramatic Cavapoos (dogs), who definitely are spoiled!
