Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

My coaching experience is based upon my 20 years of mental health and substance abuse experience both in residential and out patient private practice. My clinical experience was helped by a year long internship at Hazelden in Minnesota, then working on developing a Family program for Hazelden in chicago for 2 years. My approach is collaborative, empathetic and setting realistic goals for the 3 to 6 month contract we write up together. I also work with families of addicted teens or loved ones in helping them navigate the ups and downs of their own recovery.
