Substance Abuse
Lauren Green
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LPC
Prior to working in private practice, I co-ran an intensive outpatient program for individuals with alcohol use disorder. I have worked in community mental health, partial hospitalization, withdrawal management and inpatient rehab and have a long history of working with people experiencing addictions. My approach is less "old school/tough love" and more compassion and building skills to create a life in recovery.

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.

Substance Abuse
Dr. Jeffrey Spodak
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have a long history of working with addiction and substance abuse with both highly successful professionals and people who have lost everything from addiction. I believe in both abstinence and harm reduction approaches and will work hard to "meet you where you're at."

Substance Abuse
HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
I wrote my dissertation on "Reducing Denial In Addictions: An Alternative Integrated Group Approach." I have found that there are many alternatives to 12 step work around addictions or substance abuse. The most important piece I have taken away from 12 step and my 35 years of personal growth experience is one must surrender and let go to their Higher Power, whatever and/or who that is. In my 25 years of practice, the people that have struggled the most are people that do not want to give up control and/or do not have a higher power. I have many ways to teach letting go and surrendering if substances are making ones life unmanageable. If ones life revolves around alcohol or other substances, ones life has become unmanageable and ones higher power becomes the substance(s). It becomes way too much when one is trying to handle life's challenges all by themselves, regardless of what they may be.
