Huntington Beach, California therapist: Tanya Desloover, marriage and family therapist
Addictions or Substance Abuse

Tanya Desloover

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CADCII
My background of 20 years spent as therapist and Clinical Director of a southern CA program, and in private practice, treating clients and their families with substance use disorders, has informed my practice to help others address, not only that issue, but the underlying disorders that accompany substance use (codependency, anxiety, depression, transitions). I admire your courage to face your fears, and offer a nonjudgmental, secure holding place to heal. As an EMDR therapist, my perspective is helping clients get past their limiting beliefs, negative thoughts and feelings about themselves that contribute to ongoing use of substances to manage stressors. We will work together to support you becoming empowered to courageously face your challenges.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Jonathan Kruger Therapy, marriage and family therapist
Addictions or Substance Abuse

Jonathan Kruger Therapy

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Addiction of any nature is a profoundly challenging constellation of behaviors to understand, address, and ultimately replace with healthier choices. Addiction is further complicated by the strong likelihood that co-occurring conditions will accompany the addictive behavior: anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges often go hand in hand with compulsive behavior. As a result, grasping the full breadth of the patient’s behavior and background is vital to treatment, but that is just one piece of a holistic approach. Fundamentally, addiction treatment must address the fact that at the heart of compulsive behavior lies a sense of self. The truth is, at some level we are all wounded or, indeed, fractured. The challenge for those suffering addictive behaviors is that the wounds are so profound that the only way to find relief is to engage in maladaptive behaviors. In fact, the truly nefarious aspect of addiction is that while it is rooted in a fractured sense of self, the addictive behavior itself blocks the patient’s ability to empower and re-structure their internal narrative. Addiction is not only the crutch that soothes the fractured self, it is also the barrier that prevents a new self-empowerment to emerge. This creates a vicious cycle, and the common emotional aspects of addiction then dominate the addict’s self-narrative: guilt, shame, hopelessness and despair. The essence of overcoming addiction, and the core of my treatment philosophy, is the desire and ultimately the decision to live your life in a new and different way. This decision is extraordinarily difficult and requires a comprehensive set of tools to sustain it over a lifetime. The good news is that the scientific underpinning of addiction treatment is making extraordinary progress. My practice for addiction seeks to understand and suggest new therapeutic options, and to pair those with a deep exploration to the source of your maladaptive behaviors and the experiences that fractured your original sense of self. My goal is to create a safe, trusting and healing environment to explore these core issues and to re-create a new self-narrative, replacing addictive behaviors with new coping mechanisms and actions. Ultimately, my goal is to re-assemble the fractured self, leading to a newly empowered individual with the skillset to begin a completely new, nourishing, and rewarding life.
