Addiction Therapists in Sanger, TX.

Addiction is a mental health condition and I treat addiction by a multi-pronged process predominately from a Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) model. I help my clients understand the reasons they use a substance or engage in an addictive behavior, teach them skills regulate their emotions and tolerance distress that might otherwise lead them to engage in their addiction, and address any underlying issues that contribute to their addiction. I also help clients with with concerns about their substance use or compulsive behavior to avoid developing addictions.

Overcoming addiction can seem like an impossible goal. You are not alone. Together, we can work through the issues that are holding you back. I use a strengths based approach, utilizing mindfulness, meditation, CBT and EMDR and I believe that through compassion and a judgment-free safe space, we can make your recovery a way of life. Your journey is safe with me.

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.

Addictions can be a debilitating force, robbing people of freedom and contributing to negative behaviors that bring feelings of guilt and shame. Although I do not work with clients who suffer from substance use disorders, I offer services to help people find solutions for addictions to other issues, such as video games, pornography, gambling, technology, and other "process addictions". Addictions are a way to change how one feels quickly. In order to be successfully, one must find the root cause and develop a plan to cope with the addictive compulsions.

When there is sex/porn addiction or infidelity standard 1-hour-a-week therapy sometimes is not enough, and inpatient therapy away for 30-60 days is too much.

If you are serious about stopping the acting out, stopping the lying, and getting healthy this might be an option for you.
