We are all addicted to something: drugs, alcohol, food, negative thinking, anger, shopping, etc. It all comes from the same place. We don't want to feel painful feelings. We want to numb out. But if you are an addict you know you are in pain already. Feelings those painful feeling frees you from the need to numb out. 12 Step programs don't work for everyone. I have helped many people overcome their addictions. I will help you find self acceptance and love so that you can overcome your addiction with compassion. It's a journey well worth taking.
Taji Huang, Ph.D.
My name is Dr. Taji Huang and I have dedicated the past 12 years of my career to the field of mental health in a very broad range of mental health settings. I have had the priviledge of working closely with children, adolescents and adults in individual, couples, family and group settings. One of the tools that I use is psychotherapy, which involves regular face-to-face meetings with the psychologist. Sessions typically last between 45-50 minutes, one or more times per week; depending on the case. In this confidential and safe setting, clients have the opportunity to explore personal issues with someone who has unique listening skills.

Whether alcohol, drugs, sex, or gambling, addictions can destroy one's life. And there is no quick fix. But recovery is possible with appropriate treatment. I have been working with addicts for several decades. I have learned that addictions are a complex of psychological, biological, and sociological issues. As such, a three pronged approach is necessary. Each of these areas must be addressed. Most addicts have not learned to manage stress and deal with emotional pain. Hence, they have found their addiction of choice to be soothing, at least for the moment. They are self-medicating through their addiction. Healing through psychotherapy and self-help programs is possible.

The transition to young adulthood can be an intense time where teens may become overwhelmed by new feelings. Self-medication through drugs or alcohol is often an attempt by teens and young adults to regulate or avoid uncomfortable feelings.
Since individuals who are at high risk of becoming addicted often feel emotionally disconnected from the people in their life, my work focuses on helping teens create more meaningful connections with their family. I also work with young adults who have completed rehab and are interested in finishing the emotional growth process that got derailed while they were using drugs as a teenager.
Richard Oelberger, PhD
We can all learn to be more aware. Greater awareness allows our consciousness to grow, and we become active participants in life. We become present-orientated human beings, placing the focus on how to make changes in the current moment.
Our work together will focus on meaningful and positive goals that enhance your sense of purpose. Relationships, the positive interactions between yourself and others will grow.Addictions serve as substitutions of energy from a depleting source. Therapy focuses on dealing with cravings and the lack felt beneath the addiction which leads to cravings and filling the lack with drugs and alohol. Therapy will address these lacks and help replace them.
Cindy Kludt, M.A., LMFT
I work with people (and their family members) who have an addiction issue, who are also in a 12-step recovery program. I support the recovery process and add additional support by teaching how habits, beliefs ,and self-esteem were conditioned and how you continue to re-condition the negative patterns. I then help you to learn how to repetitively re-condition your negative patterns into more useful and workable positive patterns through your conscious awareness and actions. This works hand in hand with the 12-step recovery programs and is a no blame and no shame approach.

Addiction is an external means to regulate internal psycho and physiological states of arousal. Psychotherapy along with neurofeedback training can help you become aware of those internal states of arousal, and control them. Using the same technology that professional athletes and NASA are using, you can learning to control your physiological states of arousal, even under significant stress.

Need a therapist who specializes in addictions? One who knows about the mixed feelings of both wanting to continue in the addiction and also wanting to change? Sometimes the part of you who wants to stay addicted will be the most powerful, the most present, ...and that's okay. Other times you will so desparately want to climb out of the hole of addiction... and that's okay too. Thomas Schmierer, M.A., can help you observe what it is like to be in both places at the same time using a technique called a "cognitive interweave." This technique is one of the latest methods for resolving this conflict and moving you towards freedom from your addiction. Contact Thomas today!

I work with many individuals who have either identified themselves as having addiction problems or are still in denial that they have problems with addiction....either to substances or to certain destructive activities. Either way, I work with them so that they have a realistic understanding of the destructive consequences of their actions as well as an empathic awareness of the underlying self-destructive attitudes or beliefs (or life experiences) that may have led to their addictions. Addicts need support to deal with their addictions. There is no one way to get this support, but it is vital that addicts know that they they do need support...group support and psychotherapeutic support.

I have had considerable experience treating addiction, and I believe that those who rely on substances or alcohol for self-medication are treating old wounds and unresolved trauma. I use the motivational model to be sure the client is serious about quitting or at least moderating his/her behavior. Next, I employ psychodynamic therapy to uncover and unravel the causes of their distress. Finally, I use cognitive-behavioral techniques to help the client change their destructive behaviors. During this process, I encourage reading and attending 12-step meetings for group support.
Carl H. Shubs, Ph.D.
Are you abusing, addicted, or not sure? Are you concerned about substances (alcohol, pot, cocaine, meth), behaviors (sex, porn, computers, gambling, spending, cutting), or both? Together, we can see if these issues are really a problem for you.
If you’re having problems in these areas, we can sort it out and deal with it. Some people benefit from 12-step programs, and others don’t want them. I can work either way. Together, we’ll see what triggers you, how you deal with them, what works, what doesn’t, what situations affect your using and not using, and how this ties in with your earlier life. We’ll see what helps you to cope, where that works and doesn’t, and what other options might be.
Craig Clark, Ph.D.
Dr. Clark offers serves for some of the most common addictions: alcohol, gambling, theft, and sexual addictions (including internet addiction, infedelity, seeking prostitutes, and other sexual compulsions such as public exhibitionism and voyeurism). Unfortunately, most people avoid seeking help until they run into trouble with the law and risk loosing their marriage and/or employment. Don't wait that long to ask for help.

Men who struggle with sexual addiction are from all walks of life. Over a period of time their behaviors lead them to feeling isolated and alienated from their families, spouses, friends and colleagues. When they are ready to break free there is help for the man who truly wants to begin the recovery process. My approach involves gaining insight into one's behaviors, identifying the triggers that set them off, getting them connected to healthy relationships, and developing a battle plan that is comprehensive enough to sustain ongoing recovery.

When your life has been taken over by drugs, alcohol, food, sex, shopping, gambling, or spending hours on the computer, the world can seem like a helpless place.

Are you stuck in addictive behavior that is isolating you from the people you love? Are you numbing yourself with drugs or alcohol to calm your anxiety? There is a way out of the self destructive cycle, but you have to ask for help first. You can be free of substance abuse and find the courage to heal. Together we can find the light at the end of the tunnel!
Gary S Fisher, Psy.D., CDAC
For over 30 years I have worked with individuals, couples, and families suffering from all different addictions, both behavioral and chemical. Although I value and support involvement in 12 Step groups, in order to have a recovery based support system, I also work with individuals who do not wish to participate in those groups. My work with those suffering from addiction is to help address the dis-ease and disconnection that all addicts experience and to help them to connect to their authentic selves. When the realignment of self takes place, the individual is able to find their own truths to make healthier decisions and take positive actions out of that authentic place.
Milagros Saxon, Ph.D
The cycle of addiction can be draining and can lead to feelings of hopelessness for a better future. I have extensive training and experience working with individuals with many types of addictions (substances, love, sex, etc) or addictive behaviors. Together, we can break the cycle of addiction so that you can lead a fulfilled life without your addictions.

Most of us have had personal experience with addictions. Either we have experienced addictions ourselves or we have witnessed its devastating affects on others in our lives. I incorporate several techniques into managing and treating addictions. Clients are expected to reach out to group services (AA, NA, CA, etc.) & medical services within in the community in order to treat the addiction from a "whole" or holistic approach. I believe that addictions simply are not the "problem", but are mainly a symptom to something deeper inside you. It will take much work to get to the source of the pain, fear, anxiety, & anger that leads to the addiction, but results are undeniable & fulfilling.
