“Nothing is brighter or more gratifying than to see a family restored and their loved one come back to life.  This is what a life worth living is all about.”

Welcome! Let’s get to work.

My mission is to help others make new, healthy choices, to help them grow emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

If you are struggling because of alcohol, drugs, depression, anxiety, poor relationships, grief, work, and/or personal conflict then you are in the right place, because those are my specialties.

I work with individuals and groups in my private practice via telehealth, which many have found not only convenient but surprisingly warm.

I am ready to help you start, continue, or even find your journey.

Family Recovery Made Simple

A workbook for finding clarity in the storm of addiction and alcoholism

After years of working with family members who face the horrors of substance use disorder, I realized they try desperately to make sense out of the puzzling language of recovery when they reach out to well-meaning support groups, friends, and even clinicians. When they hear the words “denial,” “enabling,” or “controlling,” they often shut down. Then the most valuable resource for helping an addict or alcoholic is lost, the family.

My goal is to introduce a counterintuitive approach to help you and your loved one with addiction/ alcoholism. You will learn new definitions, concepts, and most of all, workable principles. Family Recovery Made Simple is about discovering compassion and kindness for your loved one and, just as importantly, for you.
