Specialties & focus areas
Recovery focus
Co-occurring
Evidence-based approaches
Cognitive behavioral therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Spots the thought-feeling-action loops that fuel urges, then rewires them with practical skills you take into the moment.
Contingency management/motivational incentives
Contingency Management. Evidence-based reinforcement approach: small, immediate, tangible rewards for verified abstinence and engagement. Strongest evidence base of any non-medication intervention for stimulant + gambling disorder.
Motivational interviewing
Motivational Interviewing. A collaborative conversation that strengthens your own reasons for change rather than arguing you into it.
Relapse prevention
Relapse Prevention. Identifies your specific high-risk situations, warning signs, and choice points. Then builds a written, rehearsed plan for each so the moment is not the first time you decide.
