Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
As a specialist in Addictions and Substance Abuse, I have over 35 years clean and sober myself. I believe that even though there is brain involvement in addictive behaviours, addiction is primarily a choice that people make to not have to deal with the reality of their situations - and that the addict can make a different choice. Family members often don't understand the difference between ENABLING and HELPING when they try to support the addicts they love. When families can stop enabling their addict and start helping instead, the addict then has a better chance of recovery from addiction. When addiction is in a family, everyone is affected and everyone needs to heal.

Christopher Cannon
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, CAS, SEP
Addiction often starts as a way to cope with pain that felt unbearable. I know this firsthand from my own recovery, and I hold a Colorado Certified Addiction Specialist credential. Together we look at what alcohol, drugs, or compulsive behaviors have been doing for you, and use somatic and relational work to help your nervous system find steadier ways to feel okay. Whether your goal is abstinence or harm reduction, I’ll meet you where you are.
