Who I Treat

I treat you, with respect and warm consideration. I hold your words with the highest esteem, knowing how vulnerable one can be, once words are spoken. I hear in your stories the undertones of suffering and discontent and work in connection with you to unveil a path towards healing. Whether looking for peace and serenity, or seeking concrete change and solutions to specific difficulties, my job is to help you see more clearly the direction to help you reach these goals.

I treat you, if you are in a relationship with a loved one struggling with addiction, whether a parent, child, partner or dear friend. Sometimes we don’t know how to help or wonder if what we are doing might be contributing to their struggles. Sometimes we don’t know where to turn or what to do as we feel so entangled and effected by their actions and choices. Much of my work is with the person who loves the person struggling with addiction or excessive alcohol use. My role is not to convince you that “tough love” is the only way or that you “must leave” the relationship, rather my job is to help you figure out what will be the best way for you navigate this very difficult relationship and find a way to manage yourself within that relationship.
