Substance Abuse

What if? Why? You're not like those people.


You convince yourself that using only on weekends won't hurt you.  


Why can she enjoy a glass of wine while you can't?


You're not one of those destitute addicts on the streets.


Perhaps you've concealed your addiction until now – you may even be "high functioning." But you can't shake that persistent sense of weariness, disgust, and frustration. The constant awareness that life could offer so much more.


Guilt and shame for actions you can't even remember.  


The specter of divorce? A prison sentence? Maybe even death?


Has your doctor warned you that your days are numbered unless you stop?


So, what will finally push you to acknowledge your addiction and seek help?


And from whom?


While there are countless therapists skilled in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, and various mental health issues, tackling addiction demands careful consideration.


There are fragile elements – trust, motivation, empathy, support, absolute acceptance – that must be finely balanced for success.  


Quitting – and staying quit.


I pledge to leverage all my personal, ethical, and clinical expertise in addiction treatment to assist you.


As someone in recovery myself, I understand what it takes to quit, and I'll collaborate with you to develop a plan for lasting recovery.


From there, I can guide you toward crafting a fulfilling life free from substances, even if you're unsure what that entails.


I provide individual, group, and family therapy to support you through every phase of change and recovery.  


Are you ready?

Out of Control


Alcohol, cocaine, opiates, prescription meds, marijuana...

Prolonged substance abuse dulls your spirit, triggers legal or professional consequences, and erodes your health, family ties, and relationships.


You once believed you had control over your drinking or drug use, that you could quit whenever you chose.


Then one day, reality hits. You wake up to find your life shattered, spiraling entirely out of control.


But even that initial realization often doesn't drive people into treatment.

Quitting for good? Changing your entire life? Seems daunting. Unnecessary, even.


So, like anyone facing a significant loss, you resort to denial, bargaining, and anger.


You rail against the injustice of it all.
