Riesa Minakan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have spent most of my 17 years of treatment in substance abuse. Recently, I have run intensive outpatient programs and offer strong skills in substance abuse and providing support for sobriety. The work is really re-learning a new way of living that is far superior to any drug or alcohol.

Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Addiction casts a long shadow, affecting not just the individual but their loved ones, turning daily life into a cycle of dependency and despair. The grip of addiction tightens, isolating you from the life you once knew and the people you love. My addiction treatment services offer a beacon of hope, guiding you towards recovery with compassion, understanding, and a tailored path to reclaim your independence and well-being.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have written a book Overcoming Your Addictions which shows you how to apply the principles of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and CBT to your self-defeating addictions. To overcome an addiction you first need to learn to accept yourself unconditionally with your addiction. Your self-defeating addictive behavior does not diminish your worth as a person. Putting yourself down will not help you overcome your addiction. Secondly, you need to learn to build your discomfort tolerance for urges, develop a healthy network of friends who will not lead you back to your addiction, and a vitally absorbing interest in life that makes your life meaningful.
