My life's purpose is to assist individuals on the path to overcoming chemical and behavioral addictions, along with their contributing co-occurring disorders. With twenty-five years of hands-on experience, I've laid the groundwork for my practice by learning from my clients' experiences to understand what truly makes a difference. This, combined with evidence-based knowledge and insights from my own journey of treatment and recovery, forms the cornerstone of my approach. Fear is often the first emotion experienced by individuals and their families when dealing with addiction. Much of this fear stems from the unknown. Providing accurate education and understanding about addictive disorders, the underlying issues, and the path to recovery can diminish this fear. It will not only benefit you and your loved ones but also initiate a journey towards lifelong recovery. Through my experience in this field, I've come to realize that everyone has the potential for healing. However, it's important to acknowledge that the journey is not effortless. It requires dedication, bravery, and sincerity. Setbacks often stem from insufficient evaluation and/or knowledge about the recovery process. This is why it's crucial for us to work together, continuously seeking greater understanding and developing stronger recovery and relapse prevention skills based on the lessons learned from setbacks. We are committed to persevering and never giving up. For scheduling an introductory meeting, visit the link: https://serenus.clientsecure.me/. Thank you for your trust in me.
