Addictions or Substance Abuse
Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Healing from substance abuse and addiction is rarely, if ever achieved through efforts to shame others and oneself. Rather, it requires honesty and a readiness to understand these issues within the context of a person's life that lends itself to an approach of curiosity and kindness.

Kelly Baez
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Embarking on the journey towards sobriety is a courageous step, and you don't have to walk this path alone. As an experienced addiction counselor, I believe in providing compassionate support tailored to your unique needs and circumstances. Whether you're transitioning from an inpatient program, seeking to address trauma alongside intensive outpatient work, or striving to maintain long-term sobriety, counseling can be a valuable tool in your recovery journey.
In our sessions, we'll focus not just on abstaining from substances, but on understanding the underlying issues driving your addiction. Together, we'll explore healthier coping mechanisms and develop practical strategies to navigate life's challenges without relying on substances for relief. My approach is rooted in the belief that addiction is not a moral failing, but a complex issue that requires empathy, understanding, and a commitment to change.
Let's work together to uncover your inner strength, cultivate resilience, and build a life filled with purpose, fulfillment, and sobriety. Your journey to recovery starts here.

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.
