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.

Treatment Center, NCC, PhD(c), CSAT-c, MS, MHA, PMP
I have worked as an addiction specialist, in a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings over the last 23 years. I've distilled that knowledge down to a core curriculum that I tailor to each client who see quick results, which can be boosted by their level of engagement. I do also work with partners and families involved.

Angelynn Lindor
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
With over a decade of experience in the addiction and recovery field, I bring a compassionate, evidence-based approach to supporting individuals on their path to healing. I understand addiction as a chronic brain disease that affects both behavior and emotional regulation—but I also recognize the deep emotional, spiritual, and relational layers that come with it. Through a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychoeducation, and spiritual insight (when welcomed), I help clients break through shame, build healthy coping strategies, and reconnect with purpose. Whether you're in early recovery, navigating relapse, or seeking support as a loved one, this space is grounded in hope, honesty, and healing.

Springfield is the largest city in western Massachusetts and one of the state's most economically challenged communities, with high rates of poverty, significant post-industrial decline, and a large Puerto Rican population that makes it one of the most culturally distinct cities in New England. Spanish-language therapy is essential, and the demand for bilingual practitioners who understand the specific experiences of Puerto Rican and broader Latino communities significantly shapes the local mental health landscape. Baystate Health operates behavioral health programs in the city, and several community mental health centers provide sliding-scale and publicly funded services for residents who cannot afford private therapy. Common therapy concerns include trauma, anxiety, depression, economic stress, and the complex intergenerational dynamics of a diaspora community that has been central to Springfield's identity for decades.
