Substance Abuse
Shannon Kossick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCADC
Addictive patterns are often the nervous system's most creative attempt at relief. As an LCADC, I bring both clinical training and genuine compassion to this work. Together we look beneath the behavior to understand what's driving it, process the underlying pain with EMDR and IFS, and build a steadier, more sustainable way forward. Shame is never part of the approach.

Substance Abuse
Michael Andrew Brennan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I take a grounded, non-shaming approach to addiction and substance use. Rather than relying on labels or one-size-fits-all explanations, we’ll explore what’s driving the pattern and what you want your relationship with substances to become. This work supports real change over time—whether your goal is moderation or abstinence.

Substance Abuse
Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals struggling with addictions and substance use concerns that impact relationships, emotional well-being, and daily functioning. Drawing on extensive clinical experience treating substance abuse, impulse control, and co-occurring mental health concerns across inpatient, outpatient, community mental health, and private practice settings, I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how addiction affects the brain, behavior, and nervous system.
I have worked closely with individuals experiencing addiction as well as their loved ones and families. I help clients understand their need to use and what drives urges, while also supporting families in understanding the nature of addiction and the complex process of rebuilding trust. Repairing relationships can be difficult and gradual, but through this work it is possible to find solid ground where accountability, understanding, and stability can begin to grow.
Addiction often develops as a way to regulate distress, numb emotional pain, or create a temporary sense of relief or control. Together, we explore the emotional and neurological patterns that sustain addictive cycles while building healthier ways to regulate stress and tolerate discomfort. My approach is compassionate, direct, and nonjudgmental, helping clients move toward greater stability, insight, and long-term change.

Substance Abuse
Paul W Anderson, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed counseling psychologist, Licensed Addictions counselor, PsyPact
Substance abuse addiction is a disease that affects not only the user but his or her family members. Abstinence does not solve the problem. Instead, I can help you and your family develop a new lifestyle that does require the use of mood-altering substances. Please read my book “Bulletproof Recovery” to know more about how my approach can help you achieve peace of mind and serenity.
