Addiction and the problems that accompany it can create complications for your health, your relationships, and the way you feel. The interplay between negative mood symptoms, health effects and addictive behaviors can create a feedback loop that can feel like a trap. I have been very effective in helping my clients to disrupt their own addictive processes by leading with respect and truthfulness. By committing myself to those principles I establish a healing relationship with my clients which serves as a safe space in which change can begin.
Within that therapeutic relationship, we can explore the role of the addictive process- and work together to find a preferred alternative.
In addition to this, I am an expert in Medication Assisted Treatment, (MAT) and work diligently to optimize the reduction of drug or alcohol cravings whenever possible. If there are concurrent mood symptoms, I can help to optimize those using a number of different medication strategies. In addition to this, I will work with you to develop your own personalized recovery plan to ensure your continued success.
