Embrace Psychotherapy, LCSW, PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support individuals navigating addiction by offering recovery-oriented, harm-reduction-informed services rooted in empathy, respect, and choice. My mission is to help clients reduce harm, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with their values while building sustainable change at their own pace. Recovery is not one-size-fits-all, and I am committed to meeting people where they are—without shame or judgment.

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.

Syracuse is an upstate New York city with significant economic challenges driven by decades of post-industrial decline, alongside a major university in Syracuse University that creates a substantial and distinct student population with its own set of mental health needs. The city has a high poverty rate and a majority-minority population in many neighborhoods, and access to mental health care is unevenly distributed across the economic spectrum. Crouse Hospital and Upstate University Hospital both offer behavioral health services, and community mental health centers provide publicly funded care for those without private insurance. Common therapy concerns include depression, anxiety, trauma, and economic stress for the permanent population, alongside the academic pressure, social adjustment, and young adult mental health challenges that Syracuse University's counseling center addresses for enrolled students.
