To have healthy relationships, we must first have a healthy mindset. Have you ever felt like there was more to your life than what you are experiencing now? Are you tired of struggling with anger, depression, anxiety, or addiction? There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you (Mayou Angelou). I provide individual, family, and group psychotherapy to adults and adolescents struggling with a broad range of issues, including mental health, grief/loss, trauma, and substance abuse. My mission in life is not merely to survive but to thrive and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.
I'm a military veteran first-generation college graduate that is eager to partner with you on your road to recovery. With three years of experience working in the mental health field. I specialize in substance abuse with a focus on trauma-informed care. I use various therapeutic approaches to help you create a happier and more fulfilled life.
My years of experience prepared me to deal with issues related to family conflict, trauma, divorce, self-esteem, substance abuse and much more. I applaud you for seeking help and for taking the time to make your mental health a priority.
