My style is warm and supportive, but I won't shy away from offering constructive feedback if you are open to it. My areas of expertise include helping people recover from alcohol/substance use issues, trauma, family of origin issues, spiritual abuse and religious trauma/deconstruction, grief, anxiety, relationship issues, ADHD management, and stages of life transitions.

Fairport, New York therapist: A Better High,LLC, drug and alcohol counselor
MI

A Better High,LLC

Drug and Alcohol Counselor, C.A.R.C.
If possible I ALWAYS prefer to be able to meet in person. Sometimes you can lose some of the warmth meeting online, however, I’ve learned over the years that that’s simply not always possible for every person and so it can be really convenient to be able to meet remotely. I schedule sessions to last between forty-five minutes and an hour, typically.
