To help you manage addictive behaviors and dependence on any mood altering substances, we will start with reviewing the history of your addictive behavior and the impact it has on your relationships, health, employment, and functioning. Sometimes addictive substances or behaviors have served to mask underlying sources of pain, such as mood instability, anxiety, relationship stressors, or emptiness and loss of meaning. These underlying factors can be addressed in psychotherapy along with learning new resources for managing addictive behaviors, such as educational lectures, family therapy, 12 step groups, and/or referral to a medical doctor for medication that aids your overall recovery.

Are you wondering if your use of alcohol and/or other chemical substances is beginning to take control of your life? Chances are you started drinking or using so that you could cope with life, but now you're finding that it's getting harder and harder to cope. It can be overwhelming to think about quitting and staying quit. I can help you to assess your chemical use and decide what, if any, changes you need to make. I also offer an ear acupuncture treatment that lessens cravings and withdrawal symptoms while also helping to manage depression and anxiety.

Addictions can take many forms, but they all have one thing in common; addiction destroys relationships and creates intense loneliness. Most often, our addictions begin as a way to soothe our pain or turn down the “noise” in our minds. Soon, that short-lived relief is nowhere to be found and we become desperate for the next hit, high, drink, fling, etc. If you or your partner are struggling with an addiction and don’t know where to turn, you’re not alone. Call today and let’s start finding the way back.

In a relaxing and productive session, you will learn how to repattern and take charge of your mind and body. We no longer use labeling words like "addict" or "alcoholic" or "relapse" or "recovery". We don't view it as an incurable disease. We teach you the psycho-social-neuro perspective of addiction. We teach terms like living optimally and re-patterning. We view permanent behavior change as a byproduct of reaching deep levels of neural patterning that change your belief system. Genetics may influence some of us but the answers to heal and live well are the same for everyone no matter who your relatives were! Learn how to live optimally and call today.

Addictions range from alcohol and drugs to internet, money, gambling and many other challenges. Do you find yourself struggling to get back on your feet only to fall right back down on your face even harder than the last fall. You cannot do it alone. Willpower is helpful but it is not enough for many forms of addiction. It is time for you to admit that you need help and support to get to recovery.

I have co-run an addiction program serving people with alcohol and drug problems. I have often found that people are self medicating when they are using drugs, covering other problems such as anxiety or depression. In these cases both the addiction and underlying problems need to be addressed. I specialize in relapse prevention. Living one day at a time is what we all need to be doing.

We can provide supportive therapy to the recovery process, by identifying activity in the brain that have been affected by substance use (or that perhaps even caused it!), and then treating to fortify against relapse. For example, many of the superior recovery programs around the country provide alpha brainwave training, since this has proven effective at deterring recidivism; we use this extensively with the recovering population, to effect much greater outcomes. We will work collaboratively with your therapist, or provide the therapy ourselves, and encourage 12 step work, meetings (where beneficial), and brain rehabilitation, towards maximal chances of full recovery and success.
