Substance Abuse
Charles I. Flores, Vital Puma Integral Recovery
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LAADC-S, MAC, CCMHC
For 30 years, I have assisted people with a variety of addictions, from the exogenous abuse of drugs and alcohol to the ones that stem from the chemicals already inside the brain, such as sex and love addiction, abandonment patterns, sexual compulsions, gambling, internet, and workaholism. I am a Board-Certified Addiction Specialist, well versed in both abstinence and harm reduction strategies. Unlike most addiction professionals, I am also psychotherapist who also treats the anxiety, depression, and other psychological issues that often manifest after being uncovered through recovery.

Nicole Bermensolo
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., AMFT
As an individual in long-term recovery, I intimately understand the challenges of getting and staying sober from alcohol and other substances. Loss of friends and your social circle, persistent feelings of isolation, and finding new means of coping with difficult situations/emotions/stress are just a few of the issues I tackle with clients in recovery. I am uniquely equipped to help both newly sober individuals as well as those in long-term recovery.

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
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.

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.
