Sharon Davern MSED, LMFT

I have extensive experience working with addictions and substance abuse. I do believe in a 12 step program so therapy with me will also require involvement in some other recovery program. This has a better chance of you remaining in recovery.

Be BOLD Psychology and Consulting
Psychologist, Ph.D
Substance use is often a coping tool for deep pain, trauma, or disconnection. We offer compassionate, non-shaming support for individuals and families affected by substance use and addiction.

Substance Abuse
Inner World Counseling Services PLLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
With seven years of specialized experience in substance use disorders, my approach treats substance use not as a standalone issue, but as a survival habit. Often, using a drink, a gummy, or a substance is a logical attempt to numb a racing mind, quiet a harsh inner critic, or cope with overwhelming trauma and anxiety. I help clients look beneath the behavior to heal the root pain they are trying to soothe. If you are using substances to manage emotional distress, we will work together to heal those underlying roots, untangle the survival loop, and build healthier, sustainable tools for true peace of mind

Daniel Johnson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPCC, NCC
I have had much success working to help those wanting to change their relationship with substances; though my approach is rather challenging and not what you will typically find. I push individuals to confront themselves and to take full responsibility for their choices and the consequences.

Substance Abuse
Peter Hoistad
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, LADC
The majority of my experience is working with dual diagnosis individuals at a treatment facility. I believe that mental health and substance use are interrelated and each plays off each other. I have experience working with individuals with all different mental health diagnosis and correlating the affects of what has happened in the past to what behaviors, feelings, and actions come from what an individual has experienced.

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.

Michelle Borowitz
Psychologist, PhD
I use a harm reduction philosophy and motivational interviewing strategies to help clients explore the role substance use is playing in their lives and how this differs from what they want out of life. We'll work together to determine a goal that fits your values, and come up with a plan that addresses the motivations underlying your use (eg, coping with emotions or stress, seeking pleasure/enjoyment, engaging socially). As you get closer to your goals, we'll anticipate possible future challenges so you feel confident navigating difficult situations without returning to old habits.

I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space to explore the root causes of addiction, develop healthier coping strategies, and build a life grounded in clarity, connection, and purpose.

Substance Abuse
Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Substance use can be a coping strategy that once felt adaptive—but over time, it may begin to erode your relationships, health, and sense of self. Whether you're navigating early recovery, relapse prevention, or long-standing patterns of use, I offer a structured, evidence-based approach tailored to your unique history and goals.
Drawing on over three decades of clinical experience, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients understand the function of their substance use, build sustainable coping strategies, and reconnect with their values. Treatment is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and grounded in scientific research—designed to support both behavioral change and emotional healing.
I work with high-functioning adults, healthcare professionals, and individuals facing complex life transitions. Whether you're seeking clarity, accountability, or long-term transformation, we’ll develop a personalized roadmap that honors your strengths and equips you with practical tools for change.

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.
