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.

I am uniquely equipped to help both newly sober individuals as well as those in long-term recovery.

New York City, New York therapist: Susana Scotti, Journey Psychotherapy, psychologist
Addictions or 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.

San Francisco, California therapist: Talia Chanoff, marriage and family therapist
Addictions or 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.

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.

Dr. Lynn E. O'Connor
