You don't have to keep fighting this alone

I’ve been where you are
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Pasadena, California — and I've been in recovery from gambling, drug, and alcohol addiction for over twenty years.
I don't see you as a diagnosis or a case file. I see you as a full person with a family, a history, and a future worth fighting for. My job is to work alongside you, help you understand what's driving your behavior, and build the practical tools to change it.
Ready to take the first step?
The first call is free — no commitment, no pressure. Just a conversation about where you are and how I might be able to help.
