I work with individuals navigating substance use and other coping behaviors through a trauma-informed, recovery-oriented lens. Rather than focusing solely on behavior change, I help clients understand the underlying drivers of use, including stress, trauma, shame, and nervous system dysregulation. Treatment emphasizes safety, stabilization, accountability, and practical skills that support sustainable recovery and long-term wellbeing.

I support clients living with PTSD and complex trauma by prioritizing safety, nervous system regulation, and pacing. My approach helps clients understand how trauma has shaped their responses while building grounding and coping skills before deeper processing. I work collaboratively to reduce reactivity, increase stability, and restore a sense of agency in daily life.

I use harm reduction to meet clients where they are, prioritizing safety, informed choice, and dignity without judgment or pressure to change before they are ready. This approach supports reducing risk, increasing awareness, and strengthening stability while honoring autonomy. Harm reduction is integrated with accountability, nervous system regulation, and long-term recovery goals.

My work is grounded in a person-centered approach that emphasizes empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard. I aim to create a nonjudgmental, collaborative space where clients feel safe exploring their experiences at their own pace. This relational foundation supports trust, self-understanding, and clients’ innate capacity for growth and change.

My integrative approach draws from trauma-informed care, attachment theory, neuroscience, and evidence-based skills to support regulation, insight, and meaningful change. I tailor treatment to each client’s needs, pacing work carefully and combining practical coping strategies with deeper exploration of patterns shaped by experience, relationships, and context.

My integrative approach draws from trauma-informed care, attachment theory, neuroscience, and evidence-based skills to support regulation, insight, and meaningful change. I view therapy as not one-size-fits-all. Treatment begins with exploration and collaboration to understand each client’s needs and goals, followed by an individualized, tailored treatment plan that integrates practical coping strategies with deeper exploration of patterns shaped by experience, relationships, and context.

I work with anxiety that shows up as overthinking, constant tension, avoidance, or feeling stuck in your own head. Rather than just managing symptoms, we focus on understanding what’s driving your anxiety at a nervous system and pattern level so you can respond differently and create more stability in your day-to-day life.
