About My Clients
My ideal client is someone navigating the complexities of both mental health challenges and substance use. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or stress, while also facing unhealthy patterns of substance use that are affecting their daily life. They’re open to exploring the connections between their mental health and substance use and are motivated to work toward healing with support.
My Background and Approach
As an LCSW with extensive experience in both mental health and substance use, I bring a holistic, trauma-informed approach to therapy. I understand that mental health challenges and substance use often go hand-in-hand, and I focus on addressing both issues simultaneously. My background includes working with individuals to explore the root causes of their struggles—whether trauma, stress, or other underlying factors—while providing tools for managing emotions, improving coping skills, and creating healthier behaviors. I use a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Harm Reduction, tailored to each client’s needs and goals. My goal is to foster a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can build trust, gain insight, and make lasting changes that promote overall well-being and recovery. I believe in empowering my clients to take control of their journey and create a fulfilling life.
