Substance Abuse
Russell Beebe
Life Coach, Counselor, LCMHC, CSAT,
Our recovery coaching program supports men struggling with addictive behaviors, including compulsive sexual behavior and related dependency patterns. While many addiction models focus primarily on substances, we work specifically with behavioral addictions that follow similar neurological and psychological reinforcement cycles. This structured coaching approach emphasizes accountability, clear boundaries, and practical recovery tools designed to interrupt compulsive patterns and build long-term stability.

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.

Substance Abuse
Michelle Borowitz
Psychologist, PhD
I use a harm reduction philosophy and motivational interviewing strategies to help clients explore the role substance use is playing in their lives and how this differs from what they want out of life. We'll work together to determine a goal that fits your values, and come up with a plan that addresses the motivations underlying your use (eg, coping with emotions or stress, seeking pleasure/enjoyment, engaging socially). As you get closer to your goals, we'll anticipate possible future challenges so you feel confident navigating difficult situations without returning to old habits.
