You recognize that something needs to change.
Maybe you’ve started drinking more than you used to, or maybe someone you trust has mentioned noticing a difference in you or how much you’re using.
You may or may not know what caused the change, but you’re now ready to find a new way. But that does not mean you have to completely stop.
People use substances for different reasons.
Yet, sometimes, the use changes over time. For example, you may find yourself drinking more when you’re feeling lonely, because you’re struggling to sleep, or because life has become overly stressful.
Unfortunately, substance use can create problems you don’t want. It can cause conflict with your partner, distance from those you care about, tension at work or job loss, and involvement with the legal system.
And it can be hard to evaluate the situation and find a solution on your own.
That’s where I can help.
I provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore your current substance use, consider what you want to do differently, and find solutions so you can achieve the balance you want.
I don’t believe substance use therapy starts with a discussion about abstinence.
Instead, we start with a conversation that helps you:
I use a flexible, compassionate, harm reduction therapy approach that lets me tailor sessions to your specific needs.
We will work together to help you create the life you want and change your relationship with drinking. So you can regain the balance you want.
Additionally, I create a safe, judgment-free space, so you can comfortably share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences while gaining insights about your substance use.
