Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals struggling with addiction, substance abuse, compulsive behaviors, internet addiction, and gaming addiction. He works with clients seeking deeper healing from the emotional pain, trauma, stress, and unhealthy patterns that often contribute to addictive behaviors and difficulty breaking destructive cycles. His goal is to help clients restore emotional balance, improve functioning, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful and lasting change.
Many individuals struggling with addiction feel stuck in patterns of shame, isolation, emotional overwhelm, anxiety, depression, or self-destructive coping behaviors. Addiction is often connected to unresolved trauma, difficult life experiences, emotional pain, attachment wounds, or chronic stress. This is one reason why simply being told to “stop” is rarely effective. Lasting recovery requires understanding and healing the underlying issues driving the behavior.
Brad takes a holistic and personalized approach to addiction counseling, recognizing that healing involves the mind, body, emotions, relationships, and sense of purpose. Therapy is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to each client’s individual needs, goals, and experiences. Clients are provided with a safe, non-judgmental environment where they can openly explore past trauma, triggers, unhealthy coping patterns, emotional struggles, and the deeper causes of addiction.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-focused counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and evidence-based therapeutic approaches to support recovery and long-term healing. Therapy focuses on helping clients process unresolved trauma, reduce compulsive behaviors, build self-awareness, strengthen emotional resilience, and develop healthier coping skills and relationships.
Brad believes recovery is about more than simply stopping a behavior or substance use. The goal is to help clients reconnect with themselves, restore hope and self-worth, improve emotional well-being, and create a healthier and more fulfilling life without relying on substances or addictive behaviors to cope or feel better about themselves.
Healing and recovery are possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond addiction, regain control of their lives, strengthen relationships, and redefine who they are today.
Virtual counseling and online trauma-focused therapy sessions are available, providing confidential and convenient access to professional addiction and trauma therapy from the comfort of home.

Kelli Tahaney
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
My primary focus in graduate school both clinically and in research was on addictive behaviors. I took a multidisciplinary approach in treating addiction, typically working on teams with medical providers/prescribers, social workers, and nurses. I take a harm reduction approach to treating addiction and can provide additional referrals to prescribers and/or support groups when needed/desired. In my experience, addiction tends to co-occur with other mental health diagnoses (most often, trauma) and I take this knowledge into my clinical practice to provide well rounded treatment for individuals with alcohol or substance misuse.

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.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
The use of alcohol or other psychoactive substances can be problematic in varying ways and to varying degrees. If you are concerned about your own or a partner’s substance use, your feelings may be mixed, complicated, and intense, ranging from anger and fear to confusion, defiance, helplessness, and guilt. At PCT, we believe that positive change is possible. We are committed to coming alongside you and your partner and exploring the effect that substance use is having in each of your lives and what may motivate you or your loved one to change. We recognize that there are many paths to recovery, and will work with you to identify what changes are important to you personally, to monitor your progress, and to readjust strategies and goals as needed. Most of all, at PCT we promote hope and empowerment. You can do this; we will help.

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.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals struggling with addictions and substance use concerns that impact relationships, emotional well-being, and daily functioning. Drawing on extensive clinical experience treating substance abuse, impulse control, and co-occurring mental health concerns across inpatient, outpatient, community mental health, and private practice settings, I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how addiction affects the brain, behavior, and nervous system.
I have worked closely with individuals experiencing addiction as well as their loved ones and families. I help clients understand their need to use and what drives urges, while also supporting families in understanding the nature of addiction and the complex process of rebuilding trust. Repairing relationships can be difficult and gradual, but through this work it is possible to find solid ground where accountability, understanding, and stability can begin to grow.
Addiction often develops as a way to regulate distress, numb emotional pain, or create a temporary sense of relief or control. Together, we explore the emotional and neurological patterns that sustain addictive cycles while building healthier ways to regulate stress and tolerate discomfort. My approach is compassionate, direct, and nonjudgmental, helping clients move toward greater stability, insight, and long-term change.

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.

Dr. Ruth Viehoff
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP
Alcohol and marijuana use can often be related to suppressing or avoiding negative emotion. While this works in the short-term, it doesn't address our tendency to avoid or fix the emotional problems we're having. Through therapy, we will work to increase your tolerance to negative emotional states and replace alcohol and marijuana use with healthier coping strategies.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Marc Feinberg
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, CBC
"When the Son sets you free you will be free indeed". Addiction isn’t a sign of weakness — it’s a cry for healing. Behind every destructive habit lies a story of pain, shame, and unmet need. Recovery begins when you stop running from your truth and start facing it with love. Freedom isn’t found in fighting harder — it’s found in forgiving deeper, believing again, and rebuilding from within. You are not your past, your cravings, or your mistakes. You are the courage to begin again. Healing is possible — and your comeback story is waiting to be written.

Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Maybe you are working the 12-steps but keep relapsing. Or you find that meetings are not keeping you clean and sober. You know that something deep is driving you to drink or drug and you just can’t stop it. Your life has grown unmanageable, and you no longer have control over the decision to take a drink or do drugs though you desperately want to stop. You know that you need something more if you are ever going to have a clean and sober life.
Using guided meditation and hypnotherapy, we work together to understand the underlying patterns and trauma that lead you to drinking and drugging. I help you understand and heal what is underneath this destructive behavior. We tap into your own inner wisdom and intuition as a resource for healing and charting a clean and sober path forward for a more fulfilling and productive life.
