Joan E. Flynn
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, L.,C.,S.,W.
People who struggle with addiction often require significant support and education as to how to avoid relapse. I am familiar with 12 step programs and philosophies as well as rational recovery programs. Addiction is a disease with a set of symptoms that can be identified and treated. I believe that people with addiction can go on to live substance free and productive lives.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Addiction is something which I have several years of experience treating. People are often surprised to learn that treatment for substance abuse is not at all what they thought it would be. Typically, those with severe addictions will require a lifetime goal of sobriety while those with more mild addictions may acquire the ability to practice “controlled use” of chemicals. We will do a careful assessment of your symptoms so that effective goals for treatment can be established.

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.
