Substance Use & Compulsive Behaviors
Understanding the Function Behind the Habit
Compulsive behaviors—whether involving alcohol, substances, gambling, intimacy, or shopping—rarely exist in a vacuum. Rather than viewing addiction as a simple failure of willpower, I view these behaviors as understandable, albeit counterproductive, attempts to find relief, manage high-pressure stress, or avoid underlying pain.
My approach begins with a simple question: What are you attempting to accomplish through this behavior? By understanding the specific emotional, psychological, or physiological function the addiction serves in your life, we can work together to build healthier, sustainable ways to fulfill those needs without compromising your health, relationships, or career.
Client-Centered Autonomy: Abstinence & Harm Reduction
I reject rigid, one-size-fits-all mandates. While some of my clients choose complete abstinence, others prefer to explore controlled use, risk reduction, or moderate management strategies.
My role is not to impose a predetermined goal upon you, but to empower you to continually evaluate the real-world consequences of your choices. Together, we evaluate what is truly serving your well-being, helping you align your actions with the life and relationships you ideally want to build.
Integrative & Evidence-Based Recovery Pathways
Recovery is a personal journey, and no single framework fits every individual. I am adept at integrating a wide spectrum of evidence-based recovery models to fit your personal philosophy and lifestyle:
Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention (MBRP): Cultivating real-time awareness to navigate cravings and break automatic stress responses.
Trauma-Informed Addiction Care: Addressing the root emotional injuries and nervous system dysregulation underlying compulsive habits.
SMART Recovery & Rational Recovery: Utilizing cognitive-behavioral tools and rational self-analysis to build self-efficacy and impulse control.
Harm Reduction & Moderate Management: Practical, strategic approaches designed to minimize harm and restore personal control.
12-Step Support & Mutual-Aid Integration: For clients who find value in 12-step or community support frameworks, I offer informed, comfortable guidance to integrate those steps into our work.
Whether you are seeking to regain control, recalibrate your relationship with a behavior, or enter full recovery, our work offers a confidential, highly supportive environment free from shame or dogma.

Dr. Lynne Logan
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Addiction problems play havoc in families, relationships and one's health. Often, depression, anxiety and PTSD are underlying problems in addiction. No one wakes up one morning saying to themselves, "I want to become an addict." Most addicted people would turn back the clock if they could. But there is hope. One day at a time, a person can change their life for the better -- and forever. I worked in the Addiction Medicine Dept at Kaiser and did a residency at Betty Ford.

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.
