substance use

Many people turn to substances as a way to cope — to quiet anxiety, escape emotional overwhelm or get a break from constant internal pressure. Often, substance use is not the core problem, but a signal that something underneath needs attention.

My background includes foundational training in dual-diagnosis treatment, where substance use and mental health concerns are treated together. This experience informs my understanding of how anxiety, avoidance, and emotional distress can reinforce patterns of use.

In outpatient therapy, we look thoughtfully and non-judgmentally at the role substances play in your life and explore more sustainable ways of coping. This work is best suited for individuals who are stable and interested in gaining insight, building skills and making meaningful change.  Get personalized one-on-one sessions to explore your feelings, thoughts and behaviors in a safe and confidential environment.
