I have over five years of experience working with clients in various stages of substance abuse recovery. My approach includes personalized treatment plans, group therapy, and individual counseling sessions. I have successfully helped clients achieve sobriety and maintain it through relapse prevention strategies and ongoing support.

I approach resistant clients with empathy and patience, understanding that resistance often stems from fear or past negative experiences. I use active listening and open-ended questions to build trust and encourage self-expression. By creating a safe and non-judgmental environment, I help clients feel comfortable and more open to change.

My approach to creating treatment plans is client-centered and evidence-based. I conduct thorough assessments to understand the client's history, triggers, and goals. Based on this information, I develop a customized plan that includes therapy, medication management if needed, and community resources. I regularly review and adjust the plan to ensure it meets the client's evolving needs.

I regularly attend workshops, webinars, and conferences focused on substance abuse treatment. I also subscribe to professional journals and participate in continuing education courses to stay informed about the latest research and best practices. This helps me provide the most effective and up-to-date care to my clients.

I strictly adhere to HIPAA regulations and ethical guidelines to ensure client confidentiality. I discuss confidentiality agreements with clients during the intake process and address any concerns they may have. I also maintain clear boundaries and avoid any conflicts of interest to uphold the highest ethical standards in my practice.
