I understand how hard it can be to overcome mental health and substance abuse issues. I have dedicated my life to helping others in the same way that I was helped through the therapy process. As a young adult, I was introduced to my first therapist and immediately knew that therapy could help me. To this day, some of the most influential people in my life have been my therapists. I still rely on these same therapists that supported me through my difficult times.
