Licensed Addiction & Substance Use Therapist
Helping individuals and families recover from drug and alcohol addiction, behavioural addictions and mental health challenges.
I am a licensed addiction and substance use therapist specializing in drug and alcohol addiction, behavioural addictions, co-occurring mental health disorders, cigarette cessation, and relapse prevention.
I work with individuals and families seeking professional support throughout the recovery process while providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental therapeutic environment.
I provide specialized relapse prevention planning for individuals transitioning from inpatient treatment into outpatient recovery programs.
I also offer structured support through:
Intensive Outpatient Treatment (IOP) — minimum of 4 hours of treatment per week.
Standard Outpatient Treatment — minimum of 2 hours of treatment per week for individuals struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.
My goal is to help clients understand the underlying causes of addiction, develop healthier coping strategies, strengthen emotional resilience, and build a sustainable path toward long-term recovery and mental wellness.
