Introduction

Addiction treatment Relapse prevention Harm reduction/Moderation management Co-occurring disorders treatment: depression, anxiety, bipolar, psychotic disorders, personality disorders Couples Therapy - Gottman Method Family Systems Therapy Living a fulfilling life often requires addressing unspoken traumas, letting go of silent resentments, and overcoming the early discomfort of making lifelong changes. I aim to help adults, couples, and families work through the hurdles of depression, anxiety, codependency, self-esteem issues, and power imbalances. I have worked for over ten years with clients diagnosed with various mental health issues and am especially talented with the full spectrum of addiction ( drugs, sex, gambling)... may it be your own or help you manage the addiction of someone you love. I use my extensive experience and training to help facilitate conflict resolution, assist clients in achieving life goals, and help in relapse prevention/harm reduction. I help clients adjust to overall life changes associated with new behavioral goals! I am enthusiastic about working with the immigrant population to process their transition to the U.S. I am excited to work with a diverse group of clients.
