What's My Approach to Therapy?

Most therapists will smile, nod, and ask, “How does that make you feel?”—but if that actually fixed the problem, you wouldn’t still be looking for someone who gets it. I believe people come to therapy because they’re tired of feeling alone with their struggles, not because they want a scripted response.

My specialty is addiction recovery, but I’ve learned over the years that addiction rarely travels solo. It brings along old wounds, shame, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and the feeling that you’re supposed to hold everything together on your own. My approach is steady, honest, and human, and I meet you where you are.

I don’t offer cookie-cutter advice or quick fixes. Therapy with me is about uncovering the resilience you already have—even if you’ve stopped believing in it. Whatever you’re facing—addiction, relationship pain, or something you can’t yet name—I’ll meet you there with honesty, compassion, and zero judgment.

My View on the Purpose of Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy, to me, is the steady work of helping people understand their inner world so they can move through life with clarity and intention. It offers a place to sort out what?s tangled, name what?s been avoided, and strengthen the parts of a person that feel shaky. At its best, therapy honors where someone comes from while helping them build who they want to become. It?s not about quick fixes or trendy shortcuts?it?s about cultivating insight, resilience, and a more grounded way of relating to oneself and the people who matter.
