As an addiction therapist, I am passionate about communicating hope, value, and change to individuals who are suffering. I have worked in the field of addiction treatment and recovery since 2015 in a multitude of settings and with various populations. I have worked with individuals, groups, and families who are affected by the disease of addiction. I value empathy, therapeutic alliance, and motivation seeking as my primary modes of operation when engaging with clients. My education background in Philosophy, a Master’s degree in mental health counseling, as well as unique life experiences, give me an uncommon perspective in treatment theory and practice.
