Addictions or Substance Abuse
Rick Rodgers
Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW, CADC, CCTP, RYT 500
I know that substance abuse is deeply intertwined with the mind and our emotions. Sometimes it’s intertwined with trauma and much of the time grief. With evidence based therapies and meditation we can help to disconnect from those urges. Our goal is to find the underlying factors that are causing the substance use and help to resolve this. We also want to live a more fulfilling life, that is more consistent with our values.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Addiction is something which I have several years of experience treating. People are often surprised to learn that treatment for substance abuse is not at all what they thought it would be. Typically, those with severe addictions will require a lifetime goal of sobriety while those with more mild addictions may acquire the ability to practice “controlled use” of chemicals. We will do a careful assessment of your symptoms so that effective goals for treatment can be established.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have written a book Overcoming Your Addictions which shows you how to apply the principles of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and CBT to your self-defeating addictions. To overcome an addiction you first need to learn to accept yourself unconditionally with your addiction. Your self-defeating addictive behavior does not diminish your worth as a person. Putting yourself down will not help you overcome your addiction. Secondly, you need to learn to build your discomfort tolerance for urges, develop a healthy network of friends who will not lead you back to your addiction, and a vitally absorbing interest in life that makes your life meaningful.
