Mill Valley, California therapist: Chris Doorley, marriage and family therapist
Addictions or Substance Abuse

Chris Doorley

Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA
I specialize in abstinence approaches to substance use, and can work with individuals both interested in 12-step programs as well as alternatives to 12-step. Treating addictions of any kind— alcohol, marijuana, tobacco, ecigarettes/ vaping, etc.— is a multi-modal approach providing supporting the body, the mind, the emotions, and the whole spirit of the person. The simplest way to start dealing with habits and addictions is by dealing with cravings. From there, we build capacity through healthy practices.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Elaine Skoulas, marriage and family therapist
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.

San Francisco, California therapist: California Center for Change, psychologist
Addictions or Substance Abuse

California Center for Change

Psychologist, PhD
Addiction is not a moral failing or a lack of willpower. It is a complex response to pain, stress, and unmet needs that over time takes on a life of its own. Whether you are struggling with alcohol, drugs, or other compulsive behaviors, we help you understand the full picture of your use, what started it, what sustains it, and what has made it so hard to stop. Our approach is compassionate, evidence-based, and tailored to your goals. We don't believe there is one right path to recovery and we will work with you to find the best one for you.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Heidi Hartston, psychologist
Addictions or Substance Abuse

Heidi Hartston

Psychologist, PhD
I have many years of experience in treating addictions, and frequently co-occurring issues including relationship distress, family conflict, anxiety and depression, job stress and burnout, past trauma, grief and life transitions. Addictions are very difficult to overcome on your own. I can help you successfully manage addictions to alcohol and substance use, and also non-substance related behavioral-addictions including screen addiction, gaming, shopping addiction and emotional eating. Watch my talk on shopping addiction, from a training for treatment providers at the Alta Mira recovery program here: https://youtu.be/eyPcHartGvU?si=3DX_HMl1bMPWl1wJ I work online with adult individuals, older teens, or couples. And I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that are most effective in freeing you from sabotaging habits, old patterns and helping you to reclaim the balanced, happy life you deserve.

San Francisco, California therapist: Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor, therapist
Addictions or Substance Abuse

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.
