Addiction Therapists in Landrum, SC.

I am a Licensed clinical addiction specialist. This is a license that requires years of education, experience and supervision in the field of addiction. I also am qualified to work with dual diagnosed clients, such as depression, PTSD and addiction. I refer clients out for group outpatient work while I provide individuals with specialized addiction counseling that reduces relapse by treating the trauma and anxiety while teaching skills to regulate emotions and relax into body sensations through mindfulness.

Therapy can be a great tool to support men and women in overcoming chemical (substances) and process (behavioral) addictions and regaining control of a healthy lifestyle. I have supported clients in working through addictions including alcoholism, drug abuse, compulsive pornography use, and compulsive cell phone and gaming use. I will discuss a plan to help you identify the emotional components of your addictive cycle, increase social support and accountability, develop new habits that support refraining from using, and having a clear long term plan for freedom. Call or email me today and we will discuss your needs and the support I can provide.

Dr. Mary Cumming specializes in addiction therapy using an integrated Christian counseling approach grounded in scripture alongside CBT, family systems, and object-relations therapy. She addresses substance, behavioral, and process addictions with compassion, focusing on underlying trauma, shame, and family patterns. clients benefit from personalized tools for sobriety, relapse prevention, identity renewal in Christ, and restored relationships, experiencing freedom, hope, and practical strategies to break cycles and embrace wholeness.

Overcoming addiction is a long and often discouraging process. In my past experience with addiction counseling, I've seen inspiring successes and disappointing relapses. If you are reading this and have a history with addiction, I am sure you know on a personal level what I am talking about. You also know that ultimately it is up to you to overcome your addiction. So, it would be reasonable for you to ask, "how could you help?" I can offer accountability, strategies and structure, but mostly I can believe in you. There is no place so low that you cannot come back from it, and I don't believe in lost causes.

Clients will benefit from an understanding of the addiction process--how it starts, how it develops, and the end result of addition. Addictions are learned behavior and can range from drugs and alcohol to eating disorders, pornography and sexual addictions. Biblical principles will be used to help clients gain the tools needed to reverse the addiction process.
