Diane Hough, LMFT — Integrative Therapy for Relationships & Life Transitions
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Alcohol, substances, or other addictive patterns can sometimes become ways of coping with emotions, stress, loneliness, or experiences that feel difficult to manage. Therapy can provide a nonjudgmental place to understand what lies underneath these patterns and explore healthier, more sustainable ways of caring for yourself.

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.

Santa Rosa is the largest city in California's Sonoma County and the hub of the North Bay wine country region, and its mental health landscape has been profoundly shaped by the 2017 Tubbs Fire and subsequent wildfires, which destroyed thousands of homes and left lasting trauma for many residents. Wildfire-related PTSD, grief, climate anxiety, and the stress of community rebuilding remain ongoing therapy concerns alongside the broader mental health needs of a mid-sized California city. Sonoma County Behavioral Health provides public mental health services, while a well-developed private therapy sector serves professionals in the wine, healthcare, and tech industries. Many therapists in the Santa Rosa area have developed particular expertise in disaster trauma and environmental grief, reflecting the distinctive challenges of living in a region with elevated wildfire risk.
