Substance Abuse
Dr. Cara Bussell, PhD, LLC
Psychologist
Struggling with substance use can feel isolating, but meaningful change is possible. I work with adults who are questioning their relationship with alcohol or other substances, whether they are seeking full recovery or exploring harm reduction. My approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and rooted in evidence-based practices including motivational interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and psychoeducation. I help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with what matters most to them. If you're ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.

Jamie Suarez
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-MHSP, CSAT & AF-EMDR (Informed)
Addictions are perhaps the most debilitating problem one can have. With the right treatment one can regain a sense of dominion over their life & choices. The escape of addiction is no longer controlling one's life. A new freedom is experienced. That is the hope I offer when treating addictions.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I specialize in working with addiction and substance use through a trauma-informed, nonjudgmental approach rooted in Compassionate Inquiry®. Rather than focusing solely on stopping behaviors, I help clients explore the emotional and nervous system roots of addiction—often shaped by childhood trauma, chronic stress, or unmet attachment needs. Clients seek my support when they are ready to understand their patterns with compassion, reduce shame, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves, their emotions, and their recovery process.

Rowe Counseling Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals who have suffered from both substance and behavioral addictions. I have extensive knowledge of working with those you use buprenorphine to manage opioid addictions, and understand how mental role plays a role in a person's use. Therefore, I treat the individual as a whole, not just their addiction.

Substance Abuse
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Addiction is something which I have several years of experience treating. People are often surprised to learn that treatment for substance abuse is not at all what they thought it would be. Typically, those with severe addictions will require a lifetime goal of sobriety while those with more mild addictions may acquire the ability to practice “controlled use” of chemicals. We will do a careful assessment of your symptoms so that effective goals for treatment can be established.
