Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
If it is likely trauma based, we integrate TIST, IFS, DBR, NVC, Polyvagal and Attachment Theory, Brainspotting, Havening, SSP, ... within the context of supporting parts enacting eating disorders, sex and intimacy disorders, substance or process addictions, or/and other compulsive and withdrawal type behaviors. We offer collaborative support for folks in 12 and 16 Step Programs and other peer groups. We may integrate a functional and/or integrative health approach for deficiencies or genetic adaptations that may be at the root. If it is moral injury, privilege ennui and/or control based, we would also address that along with the coping behavior. Please feel free to ask if you have other questions.

Substance Abuse
Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with substance use or addictive patterns that are affecting their relationships, mental health, or sense of self. This may include concerns related to alcohol, drugs, or compulsive behaviors that feel difficult to control. My approach is supportive and non judgmental, with a focus on understanding what the behavior is doing for you, rather than simply trying to eliminate it.
Together, we look at the emotional, relational, and situational factors that contribute to addiction, as well as the impact these patterns have on trust, intimacy, and communication. I help clients develop healthier coping strategies, increase accountability, and create realistic plans for change that fit their lives. For couples, this often includes working through betrayal, rebuilding trust, and establishing clearer boundaries and expectations.
I also integrate trauma informed care, mindfulness, and motivation based strategies to support long term recovery and emotional stability. Whether you are early in the process of change or returning to therapy after setbacks, I offer a space where progress can happen without shame, pressure, or judgment.

Daniel Slavin
Marriage and Family Therapist
I work with substance use in a non-judgmental and respectful way, helping clients understand what role substances play in their emotional life and relationships. Rather than focusing only on stopping behavior, we explore underlying stress, pain, or unmet needs and develop healthier ways of coping, connecting, and caring for oneself.

Roderic Burks - Integrative Mental Health
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, MS HSc, MA, LMHC, LPC
I treat addictions and substance use through a trauma-informed, parts-based approach. We explore the underlying patterns and emotional pain driving the behavior, rather than just focusing on the substance itself. Together, we build healthier coping strategies and reconnect with your sense of self and meaning.
