About My Clients
My ideal client is someone seeking support for addiction or mental health issues, especially when both are present and interconnected. I work best with individuals motivated to address these challenges in a collaborative, safe, and non-judgmental space. My approach is rooted in addressing each client’s unique needs and strengths, and I have extensive experience supporting diverse populations, including individuals transitioning from incarceration.
My Background and Approach
I am dual board-certified in Psychiatry and Adult/Geriatrics, with additional training in addiction treatment and years of experience working with incarcerated individuals. My career has shown me the value of an integrated approach, treating mental health and addiction simultaneously for the best outcomes. I specialize in providing a non-judgmental, safe environment where clients can feel supported whether they need short-term guidance or ongoing care. This comprehensive background equips me to effectively support clients with complex needs.
