The Practice Frame

High performance often masks unsustainable coping. When demanding careers, executive pressure, and reputation collide with substance use or addictive patterns, rigid templates and one-size-fits-all recovery programs rarely work.

You don’t need off-the-shelf workbooks or passive venting. You need an intellectually honest, confidential space to unpack complex pressures, address underlying drivers, and build lasting stability without jeopardizing your professional standing.

My approach is responsive, conversational, and tailored to the reality of your life. Whether you are navigating early sobriety, course-correcting after a setback, or untangling the burnout driving compulsive behavior, we focus on genuine self-awareness, pragmatic insight, and sustained traction.

Clinical Approach & Distinction

• Clinical Substance, No Scripts: As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I draw on proven frameworks—including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), psychodynamic insight, and trauma-responsive principles—without forcing you into rigid manuals or repetitive worksheets.

• Lived Perspective: Over 28 years of personal long-term recovery. This brings direct, unvarnished insight, zero clinical condescension, and a grounded understanding of the actual demands of sustained change.

• Targeting the Real Drivers: We move past surface-level symptoms to examine what’s fueling the pattern—chronic stress, professional isolation, perfectionism, and identity—aligning your choices with who you actually intend to be.

• Uncompromising Discretion: Secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth designed around the demanding schedules of corporate executives, legal and healthcare professionals, and entrepreneurs.
