Substance Abuse Counseling

Overuse can turn into abuse.

Alcohol is controlling you instead of you controlling how much you drink.

Perhaps your over-the-counter drug use is becoming a habit, or you may be abusing illegal or prescription drugs.

Smoking has become a habit that you can’t break, or you may constantly drink coffee – even the bad, stale kind of coffee.

Whatever the substance, abuse affects your health, mental state, relationships with others, and performance at work.

Don’t let substance abuse rule your life.

We offer approaches for successfully treating substance abuse, addiction, and addictive behaviors.

While working with us, you won’t be judged, lectured to, or shamed.

You will receive understanding and support, and most of all, answers and a plan that can help you overcome your substance abuse.

Erin helps find the plan that fits your needs.

Erin, a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor (LADAC), is a gifted therapist with a genuinely positive attitude and compassion for people.

She begins the process with an evaluation technique called motivational interviewing to develop an individualized treatment approach to address each client’s symptoms and issues.

The process identifies the true motivations for recovery and focuses on strengths. It often includes 12-step recovery and sponsorship.

The client needs to develop a sense of empowerment and control. Erin has a natural talent for facilitating this process.

Stan’s approach using EMDR and ACT therapy

Stan also has a long history of working with clients with substance abuse issues. His approach includes principles of 12-step recovery, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and EMDR. Stan also relies on his own long-time experience in recovery to relate to and support clients.

Typically, there are underlying issues with depression, anxiety, or trauma that need treatment. The process involves developing a network of support and establishing a recovery plan that often includes 12-step recovery in some form and sponsorship.

This approach is an organic process that proceeds in a supportive, healthy way that prevents the process from becoming overwhelming.

Discover life without your substance abuse.
