Dr. Joyce Wagner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW-R
I believe most people are addicted to “something”, however, some people’s addictive behaviors have more consequences than others. When working with individuals dealing with substance abuse or addiction I first try to teach various practical skills to limit the behaviors. I encourage individuals who are struggling with chemical addiction to be involved in AA or CR as appropriate. In counseling we also work to uncover any underlying issues that may be leading to the damaging behaviors.
