Substance Abuse
Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
Problematic addictive behaviors rarely develop in isolation. Often they become a way of coping with painful emotions, difficult experiences, or patterns that once served a protective purpose. Together, we'll approach those struggles with curiosity rather than shame, while exploring what the addictive behavior has been helping you manage. Therapy can help you develop healthier, more flexible ways of responding to life's challenges so that you can gain the freedom to choose the life you want rather than the one addiction has created.

Center for Authentic Life & Relationship, LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LMFT, CPCS, CSAT-S, CAADC, EMDR, CSTOP-Candidate
I am certified in Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counseling through the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Certification Board of Georgia. In addition to my clinical counseling experience, I founded a large ASAM Level 3.1 residential treatment program for alcohol and drug addiction, where I also developed the treatment curriculum and clinical program structure. My approach is informed by years of hands-on experience helping individuals understand substance use, build healthier coping strategies, strengthen recovery supports, and work toward lasting change. Whether you are questioning your relationship with alcohol or drugs, seeking recovery, or trying to maintain progress after treatment, I provide informed, compassionate, and practical support tailored to your needs.

Lisa Cleary
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
If you find yourself turning to alcohol, relationships, food, or other behaviors to cope, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. Many addictive patterns develop as a way to manage overwhelming emotions, stress, or unresolved experiences. In therapy, we focus on understanding what’s driving the urge rather than just trying to control it. Using approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and trauma-informed therapies, I help you build healthier ways to cope, reduce shame, and create lasting change so you can feel more in control of your choices and your life.
