Two Roads, One Choice: Healing

Your path to clarity, connection, and emotional wellness starts here.

  • Self-harming behaviors often begin as a way to cope—especially when emotions feel overwhelming or hard to put into words. It can be confusing, and sometimes even scary, to notice it becoming something you rely on.

    You’re not alone in this, and it doesn’t mean something is “wrong” with you.

    In our work together, we’ll take time to understand what self-harm has been doing for you—what it helps you express, avoid, or release. From there, we’ll begin to build new ways of coping that feel safer, more sustainable, and aligned with the life you want to live.

    This process isn’t about judgment or taking something away without support. It’s about helping you feel understood, creating space to process what’s underneath, and developing tools you can actually use in your day-to-day life.

    As we work through the layers together, many clients find they feel more connected—to themselves, their emotions, and the people around them.

  • Relapse prevention is about building a life you don’t want to escape from. Together, we’ll go beyond avoiding relapse—we’ll explore what drives your behaviors, strengthen your emotional awareness, and create sustainable habits that support your recovery. You’ll learn how to respond to urges with intention, reconnect with your values, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

    Being in treatment helped lay the foundational groundwork for returning back to your life, but through continued maintenance and discussion in therapy, we can really help you build the life that you want to live and have some fun along the way!

  • Substance use can feel isolating—but recovery is possible with the right support.

    I specialize in working with individuals navigating addiction and early recovery, and understand how complex—and deeply personal—this process can be. Substance use often serves a purpose, and together we’ll explore what’s underneath it so you can begin to create lasting change.

    In our work, we’ll focus on building practical coping strategies, strengthening your relationships, and helping you reconnect with who you are outside of substance use. I use evidence-based approaches like Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy, along with a strong foundation in trauma-informed care, to tailor treatment to your unique needs.

    Whether you’re newly sober, or further along in your recovery due to being in substance use treatment (detox, residential, PHP, or IOP), you don’t have to do this alone. With the right support, recovery can feel more steady, more connected, and more sustainable.

    I have extensive experience working with individuals in early recovery as I was the Clinical Director of a substance use outpatient program for many years. I know how much strength and courage it requires to take that first step in your healing.

  • Struggling with anxiety or depression can feel overwhelming—like your mind won’t slow down or it’s hard to feel like yourself.

    You don’t have to navigate that on your own.

    I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, and understand how these patterns can impact your thoughts, emotions, and daily life. In our work together, we’ll take time to understand what’s contributing to what you’re feeling—at a pace that feels manageable and supportive.

    As we begin to unpack those layers, you’ll start to recognize patterns, make sense of your experiences, and build practical tools to help you feel more grounded and in control. I use evidence-based approaches to tailor our work to your needs, focusing not just on insight, but on real, meaningful change in your day-to-day life.

    Over time, many clients find they feel more connected—to themselves, their emotions, and their bodies—and more able to show up in their lives with clarity and confidence.

  • Every family faces challenges—but with the right support, those challenges can become opportunities for growth.

    In our work together, we’ll focus on improving communication, navigating conflict, and rebuilding trust. I specialize in helping families and couples understand the patterns they get stuck in—especially when addiction has been part of the dynamic—and how each person can begin to shift those patterns in meaningful ways.

    Whether you’re facing parenting struggles, relationship conflict, or major life transitions, therapy provides a space where each person can feel heard, understood, and supported. Using approaches like Family Systems and Solution-Focused Therapy, we’ll work toward healthier ways of interacting and stronger, more connected relationships.

  • Struggling with self-esteem or confidence can show up in ways you might not even realize—second guessing yourself, feeling not “good enough,” or constantly comparing yourself to others.

    These patterns don’t come out of nowhere. Often, they’re rooted in early experiences and the messages you picked up about who you are and how you’re valued.

    In our work together, we’ll gently explore those experiences and begin to make sense of how they’ve shaped the way you see yourself today. You’ll start to recognize where those beliefs came from—and more importantly, how to challenge and change them.

    I use approaches like Family Systems Therapy and Solution-Focused strategies to help you understand your story while also creating real, practical shifts in the present. This isn’t just about insight—it’s about helping you feel more confident, more grounded, and more secure in who you are.

    You don’t have to stay stuck in old patterns. With the right support, it’s possible to see yourself differently—and start showing up in your life with more clarity, confidence, and self-trust.
