I am a CADDE Certified Addictions Specialist who has been working in the field of Addiction since 1996. Over the years, I have been privileged to work with Women and their children, women overcoming so many devastating and traumatic issues, as well as Men who actively are seeking assistance to overcome their pasts , their traumas and paiin as well as their Addictions. Side by side with addiction,
process addictions , consequently I have worked with people who are learning to cope/deal with Co-Occurring Disorders. I have found that within this fascinating field, I have the amazing opportunity to see true miracles come to life!! There is such an extraordinary reward in watching a person realize thier dreams and become everything they ever hoped to be...Addiction is agony, But, this is the truth, there is Hope. I have extensive personal and professional knowledge about addictions, codependency, adult children of alcoholic issues. I work using a four-dimensional model, addressing the bio, psych, social and spiritual aspects of wellness. I have learned to meet the client where they are at, and helping them establish and meet their own goals. I definately think out of the box and am willing to attempt what some may consider unconventional to meet the purpose. Because everyone is unique with his or her own story. Substance abuse is a life-long disease that affects a person’s mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. Recovery from addiction involves a commitment to abstinence as well as learning about and working through the underlying issues that led one to addiction. Challenging the patterns of coping what may seem like un-surmountable pain is easier when you find someone who believes everyone is a miracle waiting to happen. I work with a team of Licenced Professional, who are hardworking and trulycare about our client's. We treat the whole person, treat core not symptoms, and work with many insurance companies.
