Substance Abuse
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.

Margaret Shouse
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Fighting addiction is one of the hardest things to go through. Due to always having my sessions being specific to my clients needs I can adapt an abstinence only approach or a harm reduction approach. Beating addiction does not have one linear way of success. I am here to meet you where you are at in this moment, and to work together to figure out what the best path forward is for you.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.

Substance Abuse
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.

Substance Abuse
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.
