Therapist Overview
I am a dually licensed Clinical Social Worker and Substance Abuse Counselor with over twenty five years experience working with adults and adolescents in NY and NJ, specializing in Substance-Related Disorders. I possess an LCADC (New Jersey) and CASAC (New York) certification. I am also an approved Provider of Clinical Services for the Impaired Driving Offenders and NYS Drinking Driver Programs (DDP) providing screening, assessment, and treatment. I specialize in addiction, understand relapse prevention and the therapeutic process that addiction is more than merely using alcohol or drugs. In the therapeutic process I help substance abusing clients identify thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that create pain and problems that make self-medicating with alcohol and other drugs seem like a good choice. I am genuine, easy to talk to, using humor and understanding the therapeutic power of smiles and laughter to aid in the healing process. By understanding your readiness to change by being familiar with the stages of change and motivational interviewing I will explore where you are in terms of readiness to stop substance use and other maladaptive behaviors.
