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
Talia Chanoff
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I offer substance use support grounded in a person-centered approach that honors your autonomy, dignity, and lived experience as primary and fundamental to treatment. Maybe you are working towards harm reduction and shifting your relationship to substances, or maybe you are hoping to become or remain abstinent. Either way, rather than focusing on labels, our work centers on curiosity, compassion, and understanding your relationship with substances within the broader context of your life. Together, we explore what feels supportive, sustainable, and aligned with your values, creating space for change that is rooted in care rather than shame.

Substance Abuse
Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Addiction does not occur in a vacuum. It is often the visible manifestation of a deeper wound, unmet attachment need, unresolved trauma, or emotional pain that has not found another place to go. What begins as an attempt to find relief, connection, control, or escape can gradually become a source of profound suffering in its own right. Meaningful recovery requires accountability for the consequences of addiction while also understanding the function it has served. Treating the behavior without addressing what lives beneath it may interrupt the cycle temporarily, but lasting change requires helping the person develop safer ways to regulate pain, tolerate emotion, experience connection, and build a life they no longer need to escape.
