My career has led me to work in hospitals and with veterans, fostering my passion for and building my expertise in helping people who use substances, and who suffer from chronic pain, and/or were in the military. 

I have expertise in Motivational Interviewing, Harm Reduction, DBT, CBT, and traditional talk therapy. 

If you're an adult or couple looking to reduce the impact that substance use has on your life, we can work together to make that happen. 

Many people with chronic pain have tried everything, but still wonder, "why me?!" Talking to a therapist such as myself with expertise in helping people with chronic pain is an evidenced-based way to reduce the impact that pain has on your life.

Before opening my practice, I was the Clinical Director at Swords to Plowshares, providing counseling to individuals in the military, while also improving programs available for veterans. While I wasn't in the military myself, I am especially committed to helping those who were.
