Relapse Prevention and Recovery are our focus with Substance Abuse. I work with Behavioral Addictions such as sex addiction, pornography, hoarding, and anger too. Recovery/relapse prevention for Substance addictions requires 9 months sobriety and three five day intensives. Other addictions are by arrangement. My modality of choice is Image Transformation Therapy and the EMDR Feeling State focused model. I find this model creates actual behavioral and motivational change, not just curbing desire and gutting it out.

Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
When you are struggling with addiction or substance abuse, it can feel like you are trapped in a cycle of shame, isolation, and unyielding cravings. I look at addiction through a compassionate, trauma-informed lens—recognizing that substance use often begins as a way to cope with deep emotional pain, unresolved trauma, or overwhelming stress. Together, we will work to heal the root of the issue using advanced brain-body therapies like EMDR and Brainspotting, alongside Internal Family Systems (IFS) to understand the parts of you driving these behaviors. Concurrently, I will arm you with practical CBT and DBT skills to manage intense urges, navigate triggers, and build daily emotional resilience. You don’t have to carry this burden alone; let's work together to break the cycle and build a fulfilling life rooted in genuine healing and lasting recovery.

Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Maybe you are working the 12-steps but keep relapsing. Or you find that meetings are not keeping you clean and sober. You know that something deep is driving you to drink or drug and you just can’t stop it. Your life has grown unmanageable, and you no longer have control over the decision to take a drink or do drugs though you desperately want to stop. You know that you need something more if you are ever going to have a clean and sober life.
Using guided meditation and hypnotherapy, we work together to understand the underlying patterns and trauma that lead you to drinking and drugging. I help you understand and heal what is underneath this destructive behavior. We tap into your own inner wisdom and intuition as a resource for healing and charting a clean and sober path forward for a more fulfilling and productive life.
Contact me to schedule a complimentary 15-minute information session to learn more about Depth Hypnosis counseling sessions and how we can get traction in your sobriety.
