Addictions or 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.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Elaine Skoulas
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Substance use can slowly become something that no longer feels like a choice. What may have started as relief, escape, or a way to cope can turn into a pattern that is difficult to shift, even when you know it is no longer serving you. I work with individuals who are questioning their relationship with alcohol or substances, in early recovery, or feeling caught between wanting change and not knowing how to begin. My training with the California Association for Drug and Alcohol Educators (CAADE) and years of experience in addiction treatment allow me to approach this work with honesty, compassion, and respect for the complexity of recovery.

Addictions or 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.
