Areas of Practice
Addictions Counseling
As a doctorate-level therapist specializing in alcohol, drug, and other addictions, I am passionate about helping individuals overcome the disease of addiction and achieve lasting well-being. My multidimensional approach includes psychoeducation, identifying addictive patterns and behaviors, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), skill development, referrals for medication-assisted therapy, and consideration of family, work, and spirituality in the recovery process.
General Mental Health & Wellness
I provide comprehensive care for a wide range of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, stress-related disorders, and adjustment issues. My practice is informed by the latest research and integrates evidence-based therapies to support clients in achieving emotional balance, resilience, and personal growth.

As a Certified Anger Management Specialist, Level II, I offer both individual and group anger management services. Sessions focus on psychoeducation, practical anger management techniques, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and treatment plans tailored to address dysfunctional patterns, co-occurring depression or anxiety, and medication referrals when appropriate.
