Team

I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over fifteen years of progressive experience in the behavioral health field. 

My clinical experience includes providing individual, couple, and family therapy across multiple levels of care, including detoxification, residential treatment, PHP, IOP, outpatient services, and private practice. I

 have a particular focus on adult individual therapy and supporting clients navigating substance use, mental health concerns, trauma, relationships, and significant life transitions.

My clinical approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). 

I strive to provide compassionate, culturally responsive, and clinically appropriate care while helping clients develop practical coping skills, increase insight, strengthen emotional regulation, and work toward sustainable recovery and meaningful change.

In addition to direct clinical care, I have extensive experience with clinical supervision, treatment planning, clinical documentation, and multidisciplinary collaboration. I have supervised associates and trainees, developed clinical curriculum, and provided psycho-educational programming within behavioral health settings. 

I am committed to supporting both client outcomes and clinician development through thoughtful, ethical, and evidence-based practice.

I’m a Behavioral Health Technician working in detox, where I have the privilege of supporting individuals as they begin their journey toward recovery. As someone in recovery myself, I understand the challenges of addiction and the courage it takes to seek change. I truly love helping others and being a source of hope and encouragement. My own journey has taught me that change is possible and that recovery can lead to a meaningful, fulfilling life

My name is Sutton, I’ve battled addiction most my young life, but after many treatment centers, outpatient program, 12 step studies, sponsorship, and therapy. I’m happy and grateful to say I have 6 years of sobriety. 

I've learned a lot of life lesson along the way, but through treatment and the recovery family I wouldn’t have all the beautiful things in my life that I do today. I

’m a proud farther of three, with a beautiful supportive partner on my arm. I love to be active and anything outdoors. Im a huge sports fan, especially NFL football. Im the head coach for my two older sons and their flag football team. I live by the ocean and love going on my time off. If I'm not at the ocean, I’ll be trying to set ups dates to go spend in the mountains. Any physical activity I'm game for! I also have a passion for helping others. Especially in their crucial time of need. Working in the addiction recovery field feels like a second home to me. I know in my heart I was meant to be in this field, Helping others battle the same addicting vicious cycle I once carried. 

My goal is to be there for others, to listen, to give feedback from my past experiences, but also laugh and enjoy life to fullest!”
