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.

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

Substance Abuse
Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
As a specialist in Addictions and Substance Abuse, I have over 35 years clean and sober myself. I believe that even though there is brain involvement in addictive behaviours, addiction is primarily a choice that people make to not have to deal with the reality of their situations - and that the addict can make a different choice. Family members often don't understand the difference between ENABLING and HELPING when they try to support the addicts they love. When families can stop enabling their addict and start helping instead, the addict then has a better chance of recovery from addiction. When addiction is in a family, everyone is affected and everyone needs to heal.

Substance Abuse
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.

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.
