Recovery-Oriented Harm Reduction Psychotherapy
Recovery-Oriented Harm Reduction (ROHR) Psychotherapy is a compassionate, client-centered approach that recognizes addiction as an illness of impaired control - not a lifestyle choice. It also acknowledges that substance use exists on a spectrum, and that not everyone who struggles with alcohol or other drugs has an addiction or needs “recovery.” For those with addiction, however, recovery is the ideal outcome, and ROHR holds hope that it is always possible. Services are never contingent on abstinence, motivation, or recovery status; instead, they emphasize dignity, voluntary engagement, and respect for client choice. Harm reduction strategies - like education, safety planning, and incremental change - are used as supports and stepping stones, not endpoints.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy is a collaborative approach that helps people explore how past experiences, unconscious patterns, and relationships shape their present struggles. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, it seeks to understand the deeper roots of distress - such as unresolved conflicts, unhelpful coping strategies, or patterns of relating that no longer serve. By fostering a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship, psychodynamic therapy creates space for greater self-awareness, emotional insight, and healthier ways of engaging with others. The process is not about quick fixes, but about meaningful, lasting change that strengthens resilience, enriches relationships, and improves overall wellbeing. Over time, this work can open the door to greater freedom, authenticity, and a more satisfying life.

Community Integration
Community Integration is a holistic approach that helps individuals actively participate in and contribute to their communities. It involves transitioning from isolated settings to wellness-enhancing environments, fostering social connections, and promoting independent living skills. This process includes accessing community resources, building relationships, and pursuing educational and vocational opportunities. In my previous work as a Certified Recovery Support Peer Specialist (RSPS), elements of the peer support ethos inform my Community Integration Services.

Examples of Community Integration include, but are not limited to, grocery shopping, exercising, volunteering, seeking employment, attending support groups, and building healthy habits with activities of daily living (ADLs.)
