Explore Counseling Options at Stay and Talk

A safe space to process life's challenges, whether it's grief/loss, anxiety, depression, or just needing someone to talk to. Focused on building a therapeutic alliance, not on diagnosis. 

Compassionate, personalized support for both substance addictions (drugs, alcohol) and process addictions (food, pornography, shopping, etc.). Wherever you are in your recovery journey, you're welcome here. 

Grief is not only about the death of a loved one; it can come from many different types of losses, such as losing a relationship, a pet, a job, your health, or even a sense of identity. Losses have a way of rippling through every aspect of life - mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. A loss can change how you see yourself, your relationships, and even the world around you. Grief is not a problem that can be "fixed," but rather it is a journey one will take, and it often feels lighter when you don't have to take this journey alone. 

Confidential, pressure-free assessment to help you understand your relationship with substances and/or process addictions and explore next steps - if and when you're ready. Whether the assessment is voluntary or court-ordered, you'll receive respectful, individualized support. I can also help connect you with treatment options, especially if you're in South Dakota. 

A structured cognitive behavioral approach to help you build insight, accountability, and long-term change. Especially effective for justice-involved individuals, or those in recovery.
