Substance Abuse
Susana Scotti, Journey Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PhD
I am a Licensed Psychologist specializing in treating addiction, with a strong background in inpatient and outpatient recovery settings. Together, we understand how mental health challenges and addiction are often interconnected, with substance use frequently serving as a way to cope with emotional pain. Many people find recovery difficult when underlying mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD and ADHD remain untreated. I work with you to address those issues and strengthen sobriety skills. I support individuals seeking outpatient services to establish or maintain a healthier relationship to substances and those transitioning from residential treatment or intensive outpatient programs. Whether your goal is abstinence or harm reduction, I provide evidence-based support to help you gain and maintain recovery, prevent relapse, and build a meaningful life in sobriety. I work with you to understand the patterns driving substance use and to change behaviors that no longer serve you.

Substance Abuse
Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Maybe you are working the 12-steps but keep relapsing. Or you find that meetings are not keeping you clean and sober. You know that something deep is driving you to drink or drug and you just can’t stop it. Your life has grown unmanageable, and you no longer have control over the decision to take a drink or do drugs though you desperately want to stop. You know that you need something more if you are ever going to have a clean and sober life.
Using guided meditation and hypnotherapy, we work together to understand the underlying patterns and trauma that lead you to drinking and drugging. I help you understand and heal what is underneath this destructive behavior. We tap into your own inner wisdom and intuition as a resource for healing and charting a clean and sober path forward for a more fulfilling and productive life.
Contact me to schedule a complimentary 15-minute information session to learn more about Depth Hypnosis counseling sessions and how we can get traction in your sobriety.

Substance Abuse
Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Understanding your triggers to relapse is the best tool for staying clean and sober. A few counseling sessions digging into the triggers can save you a lot of grief as you begin to grasp why it's hard to stay clean. I have a solid understanding of 12-step treatment and recommend it for ongoing support, helping you find identity, purpose and direction. If you need help getting clean/sober for the first time, I can walk you through that process too.

Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor
Therapist, PhD
I offer psychotherapy, usually in conjunction with 12-step or other addiction-specific group -participation. Conducting research and publishing in the field, I help people struggling with substance abuse overcome those long-standing pathogenic beliefs getting in their way. As clients achieve a clean and sober life, free of the chemical prison of addiction, an optimistic future opens up before them. I follow my clients as they overcome the challenges ahead and support their efforts as they redesign their lives while learning to use methods useful in relapse prevention.
