GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I specialize in working with addiction and substance use through a trauma-informed, nonjudgmental approach rooted in Compassionate Inquiry®. Rather than focusing solely on stopping behaviors, I help clients explore the emotional and nervous system roots of addiction—often shaped by childhood trauma, chronic stress, or unmet attachment needs. Clients seek my support when they are ready to understand their patterns with compassion, reduce shame, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves, their emotions, and their recovery process.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Recently, I was contacted by a woman who said she wanted to deal with her binge drinking. When I asked her how often she binged, she said "pretty much every night". After further discussion, she said she would love to quit drinking altogether so we set that intention, though she thought it would be difficult. After one session, which occurred right before holiday season, she wrote back saying she had made it through Christmas and New Years without a drink and, in addition, had been able to make better decisions around a broader range of issues, because of the tools I had given her. In addition, I have worked with binge eating, smoking addiction, etc.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Healing from substance abuse and addiction is rarely, if ever achieved through efforts to shame others and oneself. Rather, it requires honesty and a readiness to understand these issues within the context of a person's life that lends itself to an approach of curiosity and kindness.

Lisa Cleary
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
If you find yourself turning to alcohol, relationships, food, or other behaviors to cope, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. Many addictive patterns develop as a way to manage overwhelming emotions, stress, or unresolved experiences. In therapy, we focus on understanding what’s driving the urge rather than just trying to control it. Using approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and trauma-informed therapies, I help you build healthier ways to cope, reduce shame, and create lasting change so you can feel more in control of your choices and your life.

Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Substance Abuse is the overindulgence or reliance on an addictive substance. It does not matter if the substance is legal or illegal, if it has addictive qualities, it can become addictive. Illicit drugs (e.g., cocaine and heroin), certain prescription drugs, alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine are all considered addictive substances.
The overuse of addictive drugs can lead to a Substance Use Disorder (SUD). When cravings are unmanageable, work and home-life suffer, and thoughts are consumed with plans to use, professional help should be considered.
Therapy can absolutely help with the psychological effects of addiction and recovery. Many therapy modalities are available to help individuals struggling with addiction move on to happier, healthier lives.

Mesa is one of the largest suburbs in the United States and part of the greater Phoenix metro, with a significant LDS (Latter-day Saint) community that shapes the social fabric and the therapy landscape — many residents seek therapists who can integrate faith values with evidence-based approaches to anxiety, relationship issues, and family dynamics. The city's car-dependent suburban sprawl and intense summer heat contribute to social isolation, and therapists here frequently address loneliness and the challenges of building genuine community in a dispersed environment. Banner Desert Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources, and many Mesa residents also access care through the broader Phoenix-metro therapy ecosystem. The city's large Latino and Mormon populations both drive demand for culturally specific therapeutic approaches.
