Whether you're struggling with substance use, compulsive behaviors, or the impact of addiction on relationships, therapy can be a powerful step toward lasting change. 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.

Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Addiction casts a long shadow, affecting not just the individual but their loved ones, turning daily life into a cycle of dependency and despair. The grip of addiction tightens, isolating you from the life you once knew and the people you love. My addiction treatment services offer a beacon of hope, guiding you towards recovery with compassion, understanding, and a tailored path to reclaim your independence and well-being.

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.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals struggling with addictions and substance use concerns that impact relationships, emotional well-being, and daily functioning. Drawing on extensive clinical experience treating substance abuse, impulse control, and co-occurring mental health concerns across inpatient, outpatient, community mental health, and private practice settings, I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how addiction affects the brain, behavior, and nervous system.
I have worked closely with individuals experiencing addiction as well as their loved ones and families. I help clients understand their need to use and what drives urges, while also supporting families in understanding the nature of addiction and the complex process of rebuilding trust. Repairing relationships can be difficult and gradual, but through this work it is possible to find solid ground where accountability, understanding, and stability can begin to grow.
Addiction often develops as a way to regulate distress, numb emotional pain, or create a temporary sense of relief or control. Together, we explore the emotional and neurological patterns that sustain addictive cycles while building healthier ways to regulate stress and tolerate discomfort. My approach is compassionate, direct, and nonjudgmental, helping clients move toward greater stability, insight, and long-term change.

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.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Addiction is something which I have several years of experience treating. People are often surprised to learn that treatment for substance abuse is not at all what they thought it would be. Typically, those with severe addictions will require a lifetime goal of sobriety while those with more mild addictions may acquire the ability to practice “controlled use” of chemicals. We will do a careful assessment of your symptoms so that effective goals for treatment can be established.

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.

Joel Schmidt
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Qualified Supervisor
When appropriate, I take a harm-reduction approach to alcohol use—focusing on realistic, personalized strategies that meet you where you are. This might include exploring goals beyond strict abstinence, especially if traditional all-or-nothing models haven’t felt like the right fit. The emphasis is on making meaningful changes that support your well-being, not perfection.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Recently, I was contacted by a woman who said she wanted to deal with her binge drinking. When I asked her how often she binged, she said "pretty much every night". After further discussion, she said she would love to quit drinking altogether so we set that intention, though she thought it would be difficult. After one session, which occurred right before holiday season, she wrote back saying she had made it through Christmas and New Years without a drink and, in addition, had been able to make better decisions around a broader range of issues, because of the tools I had given her. In addition, I have worked with binge eating, smoking addiction, etc.
