Substance Abuse
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
Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
You may feel stuck in patterns with alcohol or substances that are starting to affect your mood, relationships, or day-to-day life. Part of you may want things to change, while another part feels unsure where to start or how to follow through.
Our work focuses on understanding what’s driving the behavior and building practical ways to respond differently. You’ll develop tools to manage urges, handle stress more effectively, and make decisions that align with what you actually want for yourself.
The goal is steady, realistic progress so you can regain a sense of control, improve your functioning, and move toward a more stable and consistent way of living.

Substance Abuse
Dr. Lynne Logan
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Addiction problems play havoc in families, relationships and one's health. Often, depression, anxiety and PTSD are underlying problems in addiction. No one wakes up one morning saying to themselves, "I want to become an addict." Most addicted people would turn back the clock if they could. But there is hope. One day at a time, a person can change their life for the better -- and forever. I worked in the Addiction Medicine Dept at Kaiser and did a residency at Betty Ford.

Michelle Borowitz
Psychologist, PhD
I use a harm reduction philosophy and motivational interviewing strategies to help clients explore the role substance use is playing in their lives and how this differs from what they want out of life. We'll work together to determine a goal that fits your values, and come up with a plan that addresses the motivations underlying your use (eg, coping with emotions or stress, seeking pleasure/enjoyment, engaging socially). As you get closer to your goals, we'll anticipate possible future challenges so you feel confident navigating difficult situations without returning to old habits.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, MCAP, LMHC-QS
Addiction can feel isolating—but recovery doesn’t have to be a journey you take alone. Whether you're struggling with substance use, compulsive behaviors, or the impact of addiction on relationships, therapy can be a powerful step toward lasting change. I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space to explore the root causes of addiction, develop healthier coping strategies, and build a life grounded in clarity, connection, and purpose. Together, we’ll work at your pace to create a path to recovery that’s meaningful and sustainable.

Nashville's identity as the hub of the country music and entertainment industries creates distinct demand for therapists who understand performance anxiety, creative identity, and the psychological pressures of a career where public persona and private self are often difficult to separate. The city's explosive growth — driven by healthcare, technology, and tourism — has brought a large influx of transplants navigating social isolation and the challenge of building community in a fast-changing city. Vanderbilt University Medical Center and HCA Healthcare, one of the largest hospital systems in the country, provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a growing network of private practices. Nashville's strong faith community means many residents seek therapists who can integrate spiritual values with evidence-based treatment for anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.
