MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Addictions can overtake your life, but addictions are not who you really are in life. Overcoming addictions through hypnotherapy involves addressing the subconscious mind, where habits and behaviors are deeply rooted. As a Certified Hypnotherapist, I guide clients into a state of deep relaxation, making them more receptive to positive suggestions and changes. During hypnotherapy sessions, we work together to identify the underlying triggers and emotional factors contributing to the addiction.

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.

Life Coach, Counselor, LCMHC, CSAT,
Our recovery coaching program supports men struggling with addictive behaviors, including compulsive sexual behavior and related dependency patterns. While many addiction models focus primarily on substances, we work specifically with behavioral addictions that follow similar neurological and psychological reinforcement cycles. This structured coaching approach emphasizes accountability, clear boundaries, and practical recovery tools designed to interrupt compulsive patterns and build long-term stability.

Amy L Gould
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S, NCC, CCMHC
Breaking addiction and substance abuse can be freeing and working with a counselor on this process and having a relapse prevention plan in place is an important and crucial part of an overall plan. Whether you are fully committed or wondering if you need some help, building your commitment and motivation to change will be an important part of our work together.

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

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.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.
