Treating addiction is both a professional and a personal passion of mine. I've been in recovery for my own addictions for more than 23 years. Helping others find relief from the relentless problem of addiction is perhaps the most meaningful aspect of my work. I embrace a combination of psychotherapy, emotional healing and group support to really attack the addiction from all sides.

Gui Mansilla
Registered Psychotherapist, Lawyer (Arg) M.Div (USA) Reg. Psychotherapist (CA) Coach (Ca)
My journey with addiction is deeply personal, having been marked by the impact of my father's functional addiction from a young age. Despite the challenges it posed to our family, his struggles provided a unique perspective on the insidious nature of this illness—one that systematically dismantles lives, relationships, self-esteem, and even financial well-being.
While some may find it surprising, I consider it a fortune to have experienced the profound effects of addiction within my family. This experience became a catalyst for my healing and understanding of this intricate and complex illness. Today, as a specialized therapist and coach in addiction, I draw upon my personal journey to not only care for myself but also guide countless others through their path to recovery.
Working with addiction is powerful because, behind the façade of this illness, attempting to soothe deep-seated pain, there is always a remarkable human being waiting to actualize their full potential. I view addiction as an illness that, with proper care, can transform into a blessing, unleashing newfound superpowers. Those who have survived the grip of addiction, embarked on a healing journey and acquired wisdom and tools can become agents of positive change in the world.
Witnessing individuals transition from the depths of addiction to a purposeful and passionate life is akin to witnessing a superpower in action. The trauma, pain, and neglect that fueled the addiction often become the driving force behind a life dedicated to health, well-being, and positive impact.
Approaching this work requires delicacy and depth. The individual undertaking the healing journey needs perseverance, a thorough understanding, and decisive action to transform the dark tunnel of addiction into a sea of light. It would be my utmost honour to guide you through this challenging and isolating experience, helping you emerge into a world of your own creation—a world filled with choices that fulfill your life and enrich the lives of those around you.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Substance use is often less about the substance itself and more about what it helps manage or avoid. I work with individuals to understand the underlying emotional patterns, stressors, and relational dynamics connected to use. Together, we focus on building awareness, increasing tolerance for difficult internal states, and developing more sustainable ways of coping and relating.

Oliver Drakeford
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CGP
Here's a rewritten blurb incorporating "addiction therapy," "Los Angeles," and "West Hollywood":
"As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist providing addiction therapy in Los Angeles and West Hollywood for over a decade, I specialize in helping individuals transform their relationship with substances and addictive behaviors. My approach to addiction therapy recognizes that substance use often masks deeper emotional challenges—from unresolved trauma to feelings of powerlessness—and I work with clients to uncover these underlying triggers. Located in the heart of West Hollywood on Santa Monica Boulevard, I offer both in-person and online addiction therapy sessions throughout Los Angeles, combining psychoanalytic insights with evidence-based approaches like DBT, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing. Having served as Clinical Director of a Residential Treatment Center, I bring comprehensive expertise to support clients at any stage of recovery, from those questioning their substance use to individuals maintaining long-term sobriety. My West Hollywood practice provides a compassionate, non-judgmental space where Los Angeles residents can explore their unique recovery journey, develop healthier coping strategies, and reclaim control over their lives

Ryan Muldoon
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Addiction doesn't need to take over your life. If you're ready to heal, you can do it, and I can help if you'd like. If you're NOT ready to heal, I get it, and I'll still be on your side. My own experiences with addiction and recovery have equipped me with more tools to help than my master’s degree ever could. I'm ready when you are.

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., AMFT
As an individual in long-term recovery, I intimately understand the challenges of getting and staying sober from alcohol and other substances. Loss of friends and your social circle, persistent feelings of isolation, and finding new means of coping with difficult situations/emotions/stress are just a few of the issues I tackle with clients in recovery. I am uniquely equipped to help both newly sober individuals as well as those in long-term recovery.

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.

Whole Wellness Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
At Whole Wellness Therapy, our team is devoted to supporting individuals who may be struggling with any form of substance use- whether it be precautionary in recognizing the frequency of a client's use being more than typical, or more severe where a clients use is impacting multiple aspects of their life. Our team takes a compassionate approach to truly understanding a clients relationship with their addictive behaviors, and explores the root of the issue before implimenting solutions. Our Therapists recognize the nature of addiction as something that is often a short term fix to a long term problem. Due to this, we understand it is essential to get to know a person at their core, to understand how to begin healing what's at the core, instead of simply taking away the "short term fix" that has been being used in the meantime. Together, we will come to an understanding and implement more effective solutions.

Is your addiction a symptom of some deeper pain, or the sole obstacle to a life otherwise pleasantly lived? Using harm reduction informed, evidence based cognitive, narrative, and motivational approaches, we can identify and map out your relationship with your substance use/abuse/misuse, or behavior, the role it plays in maintaining the status quo, and what it would look like to remove it entirely.

Dr. Lynne Logan
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Addiction problems play havoc in families, relationships and one's health. Often, depression, anxiety and PTSD are underlying problems in addiction. No one wakes up one morning saying to themselves, "I want to become an addict." Most addicted people would turn back the clock if they could. But there is hope. One day at a time, a person can change their life for the better -- and forever. I worked in the Addiction Medicine Dept at Kaiser and did a residency at Betty Ford.
