Rewrite Your Story. Real Support for Real Change.
Welcome
If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, or emotional burnout, feeling stuck in the same exhausting cycles can leave you completely drained. When your nervous system is running hot, we slow things down, make sense of what is really going on, and build a practical plan designed for your actual life.
With over 20 years in addiction and mental health—and my own personal journey through these same struggles—I know firsthand how vital a truly non-judgmental space is. You will find no shame, guilt, or rigid expectations here. Just honest conversation, genuine understanding, and steady guidance to help you move forward.
How We Work Together:
• Real lived experience, grounded in two decades of clinical work and personal understanding.
• A private, zero-judgment space—free of shame or guilt.
• Practical next steps to help you gain control, heal, and rebuild.

WHAT WE WORK ON
Most people don’t walk in with just one isolated issue. It is usually a compounding cycle: stress escalates, sleep drops off, thoughts get darker, emotions spike, and coping mechanisms become unhelpful. My goal is to help you break down that cycle and rebuild—step by step.
Primary Focus Areas:
Addiction & Relapse Prevention: Substance use, behavioral patterns, and long-term recovery support.
Anxiety & Panic: Chronic worry, social anxiety, and nervous system overload.
Trauma & PTSD: Unresolved past experiences and emotional triggers.
ADHD & Executive Functioning: Time management, focus, organization, and burnout.
Depression & Burnout: Low energy, loss of motivation, and emotional exhaustion.
Emotional Regulation: Managing intense mood swings, anger, and feeling overwhelmed.
Life Transitions: Stress management through major career, relationship, or personal changes.
HOW I WORK
Therapy should be practical, grounded, and tailored specifically to you. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, sessions integrate proven, evidence-based methods depending on what you need most:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) & DBT-Informed Skills: To reframe unhelpful thought patterns and build real-time coping tools.
Motivational Interviewing: To help you find clarity and personal motivation for lasting change.
Trauma-Informed Modalities (EMDR & Somatic Tapping): To process underlying distress and soothe an overactive nervous system.
Every session is focused on three simple questions: What is happening? Why is it happening? What can you do next?
Therapy shouldn’t only happen for 50 minutes once a week. Real life happens in the space between counseling sessions—when stress spikes, cravings hit, or old patterns start acting up.
To bridge that gap, I personally custom-built actually iCAN—a completely free coaching and support companion designed to keep you connected to your progress, give you real-time exercises, and offer structured guidance right when you need it most.
What You Get in the App:
Direct Client Messaging: Message me directly through the app between sessions to check in, share a quick update, or post an insight while it is fresh on your mind.
24/7 AI Coach Support: Chat with the actually iCAN AI Coach whenever you need immediate reflection, a quick grounding technique, or a perspective check in the moment.
Targeted Skill Exercises & Workbooks: Access interactive tools, guided programs, and exercises built specifically for anxiety, trauma, ADHD, depression, and relapse prevention.
Private Journaling & Sharing: Keep a secure journal for yourself, or choose specific entries to share directly with me to discuss during our next session.
Progress & Habit Tracking: Keep tabs on your daily routines, sleep quality, physical activity, and long-term recovery goals so you can visually see your progress over time.
Note: Professional counseling remains the foundation of our work. actually iCAN is designed as a practical coaching companion for the space between sessions—it is not a replacement for medical care or emergency crisis services.
Workbooks, Writings & Practical Tools
Some people need more than a conversation to sit with between sessions. I’ve gathered practical recovery tools, guided workbooks, and selected writings — including my Memoir 2 Bits.
