About My Clients
I enjoy working with people challenged by mental health disorders and who are also struggling with substance use. I am most useful working with adults who have experienced trauma, isolation, difficult life transitions, anxiety and mood disorders. I am a gender and culture affirming therapist who is ready to partner with you to support your well-being.
My Background and Approach
I received a master of science degree in addiction studies from Capella University and a master's of clinical social work from the University of Michigan. I am a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC) and am a person in long-term recovery from co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. I offer a person-centered approach to therapy tailored to each individual's comfort, preferences and goals. Typically I utilize Harm Reduction, Motivational Interviewing and DBT.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that all people can benefit from having a support partner to assist with life's difficulties and discomfort. Our partnership will honor you as the expert on self and will build on your strengths to achieve your goals whatever they may be.
