Addiction Therapists in Russell, MA.

In walking alongside individuals who have struggled with addiction, I utilize emotionally focused therapy, schema therapy, and internal family systems which helps to understand, become aware of, heal traumas at the root of addiction, and create healthy habits of coping in the process. Stepping into a lifestyle of recovery and sobriety takes a lot of courage, strength, support and humility. I look forward to walking along side you in the process.

I began my career in the treatment of alcohol and drug addiction, and believe that addictions primarily express difficulties people have in tolerating strong emotions. This is a fundamental issue, and the use of substances often masks it and instead becomes the primary focus of living. I will help you to explore how your "love affair" with your substance of choice brings you anxiety relief in the short term and defeats your interest and ability to grow and develop in the long term. We will also discuss the value of 12 step programs.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step programs, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brain in mind. That is, talking to the conscious brain while the primal brain is deciding things even before you are consciously aware? Well, that is the problem to solve in addiction. We have the solution utilizing a new cutting edge neuroscience-centered brain rebalancing system. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or call 877-606-6161.
