Addiction Therapists in Lake Clarke Shores, FL.

I honor the power of choice in recovery. I don't believe that clients have to hit "rock bottom" before they benefit from treatment. Recognizing that individuals are ready for treatment at many different stages, I can meet them wherever they are and help them develop the motivational tools to achieve lasting recovery. We will develop a program that will meet your individual physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs. I am committed to finding therapies that will most effectively guide you to recovery. The first step is YOU!

If you are preoccupied with an activity or a substance from alcohol to illegal drugs, prescription medication, tobacco, caffeine, or even sex, gambling, shopping or eating; if you "need" a drink or a drug or you can't imagine entirely giving up a behavior or a substance, there is a solution. The first step is admitting that you have a problem and getting professional help. I have a 30 + year background in addictions and Twelve Step recovery. I can help you decide if you need help and the best way to get it. Together we can open the door to recovery. I also provide therapy “tune-ups” and support for those already in recovery. Call me now for a confidential, no obligation consultation.

Whether you are struggling with food addictions or drug/alcohol addictions, I believe that all addictions have a similar root. Together, we can get to the roots of your addictions, helping you to better understand why you do what you do. Through greater self understanding coupled with concrete coping skills and relapse prevention plans, I can help you to live a more free life.

Anyone who has suffered with an addiction or lived with someone with an addiction knows the powerful foothold it can have. Addiction ruins families, careers, relationships, self-esteem, and self-confidence. Individuals are left wondering what happened and how it got that far. The good news is that it is never too late. You can be taught to recognize and avoid triggers, choose alternative behaviors, and get back the life you once had.

I worked in adolescent and adult PHP/IOP/OP rehabilitation centers for individuals diagnosed with a substance use disorder, and/or a co-occurring diagnosis such as depression, anxiety, eating disorder, trauma or other mental health issues. I used various proven therapy techniques to help my clients learn new coping behaviors, learn how to stop impulsive behaviors, and recognize how their thinking influenced their behavior. I provided family counseling to help mend the broken relationships. I work with clients who are following the 12 Steps, The Matrix Model or another type of approach to recovery. In private practice I continue to work with clients who are in recovery, or seeking therapy to

I've worked in the field of addiction for over 30 years. I was among the first Certified Addictions Counselors in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and for 5 years I was Directior of Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs for Fairfax County Virginia. I've had a full time private practice as a counselor and psychotherapist for over 20 years. I specialize in working with all types of addictions - chemical, behavioral, sex/love, and gambling. A primary focus for my practice is men's issues complicated by addictions, and relationship problems with an addiction focus. This type of counseling, & support group involvement, is highly effective in helping people to recover and to prevent relapse.

Counseling is an essential part of drug abuse treatment for many people. Cognitive behavioral therapy, family counseling, and other therapy approaches can help people recovering from addiction stay clean. Therapy can also treat the other mental health conditions that often contribute to prescription drug abuse. While any counseling therapy for drug abuse treatment is better than none, group therapy is generally preferred over individual therapy. Individual therapy can be helpful in the case of a dual diagnosis: coexisting depression, bipolar disorder, or other significant mental health condition that requires treatment in its own right, separate from addiction.

I believe that the notion of "addictive personalities" is nonsense. There are important differences between drug addiction and so-called internet addiction, for example. I know that addictions arise for many reasons, and that we may never understand most of those reasons. Happily, people can and do overcome addictions without having to understand all of its mysterious causes. 12-step programs are popular, but I reject the idea that we must surrender control of our behavior to a higher power in order to solve these problems. Building solutions for addictions is not very different from building solutions to other problems. We need only use our existing strengths in ways that make sense.

With extensive experience in Addictions Counseling (now called Substance Use Disorder), I utilize evidence based methods (CBT, ERP, Solution-Focused Therapy and 12 Step self-help) so each individual can examine what "has been working" for them and "what has not been working" for them. Let's keep what works and stop what does not work! Subsequently we discuss "where they are now" and then develop goals for "where they want to be" including "how to get there." We can also utilize music as a therapeutic tool to facilitate the recovery process.
