What's My Approach to Therapy?
I help clients build motivation and gain understanding of their use patterns and how their use affects their quality of life and others in their lives. I take a firm and transdiagnostic approach, focusing on a unified protocol and motivational interviewing. While abstinence is recommended, I believe in harm reduction with an ultimate goal of long-term recovery. I strive to help clients recognize their needs and find strategies to address them in a healthier, less destructive way.
