Dr. Clinton W. Smith
Hypnotherapist, PsyD, CH, NLP
The nature of addiction is both physical and psychological. When you combine psychological and hypno therapeutic strategies and techniques most addictions will be eliminated without long term therapy. Moreover, hypnotherapy addresses the the habit or addiction at the subconscious level where the problem is locked from conscious control. When therapeutic suggestions and NLP techniques are utilized the addiction can be extinguished without withdrawal and excess struggle. See testimonials on HypnosisbyDoctors.com

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I have over 25 years’ experience of living within 12-step recovery, including recovery from addiction to drugs, alcohol, and sex and love. This lived experience informs my clinical work, particularly with clients who are new to recovery, returning to it, or seeking additional therapeutic depth alongside an established recovery programme.
I understand the complexities of recovery beyond abstinence, including identity, relationships, shame, and long-standing patterns of self-protection. I bring this understanding together with my professional training in Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering a thoughtful and grounded therapeutic approach that respects both structure and complexity.

Susana Scotti, Journey Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PhD
I am a Licensed Psychologist specializing in treating addiction, with a strong background in inpatient and outpatient recovery settings. Together, we understand how mental health challenges and addiction are often interconnected, with substance use frequently serving as a way to cope with emotional pain. Many people find recovery difficult when underlying mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD and ADHD remain untreated. I work with you to address those issues and strengthen sobriety skills. I support individuals seeking outpatient services to establish or maintain a healthier relationship to substances and those transitioning from residential treatment or intensive outpatient programs. Whether your goal is abstinence or harm reduction, I provide evidence-based support to help you gain and maintain recovery, prevent relapse, and build a meaningful life in sobriety. I work with you to understand the patterns driving substance use and to change behaviors that no longer serve you.

Online in Queens, NY (Online Only)
Queens is one of the most ethnically diverse urban areas in the world — home to speakers of over 160 languages — and its therapy community reflects this range, with multilingual and multicultural practitioners a practical necessity rather than a specialty. The borough's large South Asian, Chinese, Korean, Colombian, and Guyanese communities create consistent demand for therapists who can navigate bicultural identity, immigration stress, and family systems shaped by values from outside mainstream Western culture. Elmhurst Hospital Center and Queens Hospital Center serve the borough's institutional mental health needs, while a growing network of private practitioners operates across Forest Hills, Flushing, Jamaica, and Astoria. Telehealth has significantly expanded access to culturally matched care for clients across the borough.
