Substance Abuse
Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
Problematic addictive behaviors rarely develop in isolation. Often they become a way of coping with painful emotions, difficult experiences, or patterns that once served a protective purpose. Together, we'll approach those struggles with curiosity rather than shame, while exploring what the addictive behavior has been helping you manage. Therapy can help you develop healthier, more flexible ways of responding to life's challenges so that you can gain the freedom to choose the life you want rather than the one addiction has created.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Healing from substance abuse and addiction is rarely, if ever achieved through efforts to shame others and oneself. Rather, it requires honesty and a readiness to understand these issues within the context of a person's life that lends itself to an approach of curiosity and kindness.

Richmond is Virginia's state capital and a city confronting its identity as the former capital of the Confederacy — a historical weight that has made racial equity, community healing, and the legacy of slavery active and ongoing conversations in clinical, academic, and public life. The city's significant African American community, its rapidly growing Latino population, and a large university sector anchored by Virginia Commonwealth University collectively shape diverse and evolving therapy demand. VCU Health and Bon Secours Richmond Health System provide major institutional mental health resources, while VCU's extensive psychology, counseling, and social work programs supply significant clinical training to the community. Richmond's growing arts and creative economy, rapid gentrification of historically Black neighborhoods, and strong LGBTQ+ community each contribute distinct dimensions to its therapy culture.
