Addiction comes to steal, kill and destroy. Addiction can render a person feeling powerless, lost and empty. The good news is there is help for addiction. The 12 steps in conjunction with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are an avenue that many people have found to escape the grip of addiction. Through counseling the individual will learn that there is help, how to access help and that they are not alone in struggle.

I provide clients with a thorough and sympathetic approach to addressing drug use difficulties in my capacity as an addictions counselor.

By providing convenience and anonymity through online therapy, I make getting treatment easy and pleasant. Working together, we create a future free from addiction that gives you the power to take back control of your life.

As a therapist who has worked with both teens and adults with substance use disorders and addiction for years, I can say I truly enjoy being a part of the healing that takes place in recovery. Addiction is still one of the most stigmatized mental health issues, and still somehow seen as a personal flaw more so than a brain process. Healing from addiction requires someone that has the experience to know when to empathize, and when to challenge and it takes a therapist with a ton of patience and compassion to be comfortable reaching into the darkest parts. Addiction is not your fault, but recovery becomes your responsibility and it helps to have an ally willing to go there with you.

Sobriety is very difficult to maintain but there is hope for the damage your addiction has caused in your life. You don't have to allow your addiction to take everything from you. If your addiction already has (just like so many others) then we can help you rebuild your life one step at a time. There is more to know about addiction than people think and there are very effective treatment options for it. Counseling is a great start.

In addiction counseling, my approach focuses on a holistic and client-centered perspective, emphasizing personal empowerment and long-term recovery. I believe in addressing addiction as a complex interplay of psychological, emotional, social, and spiritual factors. I work with clients to get to the root cause of their addiction, identity triggers, and develop strategies for change. Utilizing cognitive-behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices, I assist clients in developing self -awareness, building healthy skills, and cultivating ways to express the impact.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step programs, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brain in mind. That is, talking to the conscious brain while the primal brain is deciding things even before you are consciously aware? Well, that is the problem to solve in addiction. We have the solution utilizing a new cutting edge neuroscience-centered brain rebalancing system. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or call 877-606-6161.

In my approach to working with clients struggling with addiction, I implement a set of techniques aimed at creating a positive and supportive environment conducive to clients' success and resilience in the face of setbacks. Recognizing that the decision to seek addiction treatment is often challenging, I acknowledge the potential external pressures or societal stigma clients may face. Central to my approach is conveying to clients that their well-being is of utmost importance. By fostering an atmosphere where they feel safe discussing their vulnerabilities and hardships, I aim to empower them on their path to recovery.

Helping clients to identify what they are seeking from and or getting out of their addiction is one of the main goals in my practice. Once clients are able to identify this they can better understand the motivation behind continuing to use. The next step is to help clients to create a "new life" or version of themselves that allows for more balance and enjoyment.

I've never met anyone who started using a substance because they wanted to be unable to live without it. Substance abuse and addiction start as a strategy. The strategy may be different for everyone but it begins to be THE strategy. The coping skill for unwanted emotions, for difficult times in our lives and even the way we celebrate the good times. Learning to experience life without substance is often hard in the beginning. As you grow into your new life you will have the power of choice that you may not have known you had in your addiction.
