Addictions Therapy
From discovery to recovery, we provide individual therapy, couples counseling, & family therapy for substance misuse, abuse, & addictions.
Understanding Your Relationship to Substances
In a safe & collaborative environment, we seek to help you better understand your relationship to substance. Understanding that all behavior is reasonable & adaptive, we uncover how substances work for you while also challenging how they don’t work. We aim to allow emotional processing from events/emotions that have been numbed with substances. With deeper understanding & processing we will redefine your relationship with substances in a way that allows you freedom from negative consequences, healthier functioning and behavioral choices.
The Opposite of Addiction is Connection
We believe that the addictions field has made leaps & bounds in its understanding of how substances interplay with coping with emotions and connections. Attachment theory & our neurology show us that connection is essential in healthy coping & development.
