I specialize in treating substance use disorders by helping clients understand the purpose substance use serves in their lives and teaching strategies that can help regain connection and self-acceptance. I also treat the co-occurring disorders that often accompany substance abuse, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. I primarily use the tools of curiosity, compassion, and mindfulness to help empower clients in therapy.
