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.

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.

Insight Therapeutic and Wellness Solutions, PLLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCS, NCC, ACS
More often than not, drug addictions start with an experimental use of a drug in social situations. And for some people, the drug use becomes more frequent. As time passes, a person may feel the need to use more of a drug to get their desired high, and soon a person may need the drug to simply feel “good.”
We will address the symptoms of your addiction and the related areas of impaired functioning, and together we’ll structure the time and content of your ongoing recovery.
We believe that there are many paths to successful recovery that will work with your goals and desires, and ensure you can make the life changes you want to make. Please contact us today so we can schedule an appointment. We have staff who are specially trained in substance use disorders

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.

Life Coach, Counselor, LCMHC, CSAT,
Our recovery coaching program supports men struggling with addictive behaviors, including compulsive sexual behavior and related dependency patterns.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Substance use doesn’t happen in a vacuum—and it’s rarely as simple as “just stop.” For many people, it’s tied to stress, trauma, burnout, identity, and the pressure of navigating environments that don’t always feel safe, affirming, or aligned. Culture plays a role too—whether that’s family expectations, community norms around alcohol or substances, stigma about getting help, or the ways substance use is normalized, hidden, or policed differently across communities.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t stay at the surface. We actively work with you to map out your patterns, understand your triggers, and identify what your substance use is helping you manage or avoid. From there, we build something more sustainable—whether that’s harm reduction, boundaries, alternative coping strategies, or a clearer path toward recovery. We’ll also name and unpack the cultural and systemic factors shaping your experience, so you’re not carrying that context alone. This is collaborative, honest work focused on helping you move toward the kind of relationship with substances—and with yourself—that actually feels aligned.

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.
