I believe in every client's desire and ability for healing, wholeness and positive change, and I work collaboratively with the client in every step of the healing process.

I often use the following techniques with clients:
I offer a variety of services including:
Outpatient and Intensified Outpatient Therapy
Alcohol and other drug court assessments

Addiction, Recovery, and Relapse Prevention
I generally see clients who are adolescent age and older.
