Addictions or Substance Abuse
GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I specialize in working with addiction and substance use through a trauma-informed, nonjudgmental approach rooted in Compassionate Inquiry®. Rather than focusing solely on stopping behaviors, I help clients explore the emotional and nervous system roots of addiction—often shaped by childhood trauma, chronic stress, or unmet attachment needs. Clients seek my support when they are ready to understand their patterns with compassion, reduce shame, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves, their emotions, and their recovery process.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
The use of alcohol or other psychoactive substances can be problematic in varying ways and to varying degrees. If you are concerned about your own or a partner’s substance use, your feelings may be mixed, complicated, and intense, ranging from anger and fear to confusion, defiance, helplessness, and guilt. At PCT, we believe that positive change is possible. We are committed to coming alongside you and your partner and exploring the effect that substance use is having in each of your lives and what may motivate you or your loved one to change. We recognize that there are many paths to recovery, and will work with you to identify what changes are important to you personally, to monitor your progress, and to readjust strategies and goals as needed. Most of all, at PCT we promote hope and empowerment. You can do this; we will help.
