Substance Abuse
David Sudyka
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
Struggling with substance use can feel isolating, especially when it starts to affect your relationships, work, or sense of control. You might feel stuck between wanting change and not knowing how to get there. Therapy focuses on helping you understand the patterns behind your use, identify triggers, and build healthier ways to cope. The goal is to support you in making changes that feel realistic and sustainable, whether that means reducing use, maintaining sobriety, or gaining clarity about what you want moving forward.

Substance Abuse
Dr. Mitch Keil, PsyD
Psychologist, Keil Psych Group
I don’t think the most important question in addiction treatment is simply, “Why the addiction?” I’m much more interested in, “Why the pain?”
Addiction is often an attempt to escape, soothe, or manage feelings that have become too difficult to hold alone. Alcohol, drugs, or other compulsive behaviors may provide temporary relief, but over time that relief comes at an enormous cost. Shame, secrecy, isolation, and damaged relationships begin to take over.
My approach to addiction and substance abuse therapy goes deeper than simply trying to stop the behavior. We work to understand what the addiction has been doing for you—what feelings it helps you avoid, where those feelings came from, and why this particular way of coping became necessary. Often that work brings us into trauma, attachment, relationships, and painful experiences that were never fully processed.
I work psychodynamically while also supporting the practical realities of recovery. Therapy can work alongside AA, SMART Recovery, 12-step programs, detox, or other forms of addiction treatment. Sobriety is important, but recovery is about more than removing a substance. It’s about reconnecting with yourself, your relationships, and a life you no longer need to escape from.
The opposite of addiction is connection.

Substance Abuse
Sexual Recovery Coach
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, CST, CADC-III, CTA-CC
Whatever your drug of choice is, the notion of giving it up and living without it can seem impossible. As an internationally certified addiction counselor (ICAdC), I help addicted individuals create new resources, patterns and habits as they achieve a level of sobriety and begin navigating life sober. Stopping the behavior is the first step. The second phase is crucial; identifying what purpose the addiction serves, what were the contributing factors. Once there is a higher level of awareness, new methods of self-soothing and emotional regulation can be developed. Addiction is a prison; recovery is an escape from that prison.
