Working with clients, and their families, as they navigate the difficult journey of recovery has been my life's work.

My journey began at Monte Nido Residential Treatment Center in 2000.  I was lucky to find this "mountain nest" where I would stay for 18 years.   I was blessed to work and learn from Carolyn Costin and the wise women who both worked and were healed there.  I was encouraged  to be a person first, and therapist second, and that is how I practice today.  My experience at Monte Nido allowed me to be creative and I love collaborating with my clients on new and different approaches to recovery.  Let's eat a meal, let's explore your passions, let's go to Trader Joes to explore food preferences vs fears.   I believe that honesty along with a loyal support network of professionals, family, friends, and mentors, is a combination that when used effectively can bring about tremedous peace, and healing.  I would love to be a part of that network of healing for you, or find someone who would be a good fit.  

I believe that a full RECOVERED life is not only possible, but  achievable for everyone.  

BEst,

Anna
