Kelley Boole
Therapist, LSW
Recovery is rarely a straight line, and shame is its loudest companion. Drawing on direct experience facilitating intensive outpatient (IOP) groups for substance use, Kelley will meet you wherever your at, whether just curious about cutting back, newly sober, deep in long-term recovery, or supporting a loved one. Using Motivational Interviewing, CBT, and DBT skills, she'll help you build coping tools, address co-occurring anxiety or depression, and protect the progress you've fought for.

Amy L Gould
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S, NCC, CCMHC
Breaking free from addiction can be genuinely freeing — and it's work worth doing with support. Whether you're fully committed to change or still wondering whether you need help, building your motivation is part of what we'll do together. Addiction is often a way of escaping other pain, so our work looks beyond the substance itself to what it's been protecting you from. Along the way, a relapse prevention plan becomes an important part of a lasting recovery.

Substance Abuse
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.

Kelli Tahaney
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
My primary focus in graduate school both clinically and in research was on addictive behaviors. I took a multidisciplinary approach in treating addiction, typically working on teams with medical providers/prescribers, social workers, and nurses. I take a harm reduction approach to treating addiction and can provide additional referrals to prescribers and/or support groups when needed/desired. In my experience, addiction tends to co-occur with other mental health diagnoses (most often, trauma) and I take this knowledge into my clinical practice to provide well rounded treatment for individuals with alcohol or substance misuse.
