Mental Health Therapy: Healing from Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma

If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, or the lingering effects of trauma, you don’t have to manage these feelings on your own. I offer compassionate therapy to help you regain emotional balance and live a life free from the weight of these challenges.

Let’s work together to:

• Develop a personalized treatment plan that suits your specific needs.

• Use evidence-based therapies like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), talk therapy, and movement-based therapy to address emotional and physical blocks.

• Heal from trauma and create lasting recovery from anxiety and depression.

Whether you’ve experienced recent trauma or have a long history of mental health challenges, we can work together to bring you peace and healing.

Drug & Alcohol Addiction Counseling: Empowering Your Recovery Journey

• Are you struggling with alcohol or drug addiction? Whether you’re looking to cut back, quit, or just need more support in your recovery journey, I can provide the tools and strategies to help you achieve your goals.

  • Do you need additional support beyond working with a sponsor or attending group meetings?

  • Have you recently completed treatment but feel uncertain about how to build your recovery support system?

  • Are you looking for personalized therapy to address the unique ways addiction affects you?

  Addiction is a deeply personal experience, and therapy can offer a customized plan to help you:

  • Set clear recovery goals and track your progress.

  • Overcome triggers and emotional barriers to sobriety.

  • Build a sustainable support system that strengthens your long-term recovery.

  Together, we’ll work on identifying your goals and creating a tailored treatment plan to help you heal and maintain your sobriety.

Support for Families and Friends Affected by Mental Health and Addiction

If a friend or family member is struggling with mental health or addiction, it’s common to feel overwhelmed and unsure of how to help. But your healing matters too! Family therapy and individual counseling for loved ones are essential for restoring your emotional well-being and strengthening your support system.

I offer a safe, supportive space where we can work together to help you:

• Develop healthy boundaries to protect your emotional and mental health.

• Process your feelings and experiences to understand the impact of addiction or mental health struggles on you.

• Gain insight into how these challenges have affected you, so you can heal and move forward with clarity.

• Guide you through your own recovery from the harms of adduction.

You don’t have to face this alone. Let’s work together to help you heal and regain your sense of balance.
