I have been practice since 1979. I am a Licensed Masters Social Worker. I am a Certified Advanced Addictions Counselor and certified in EMDR. I have a general practice, with specialties in treating Couples, Chemical Dependency Issues, Eating Disorders, other Addictions and Adult Sexual Abuse Survivors.
