Addiction Therapists in The Colony, 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.

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.

I provide clients with a thorough and sympathetic approach to addressing drug use difficulties in my capacity as an addictions counselor. I offer individualized therapy regimens that take into account each person's particular needs, drawing on years of expertise. I assist clients in achieving long-lasting recovery by utilizing strategies that are supported by research and a welcoming, judgment-free atmosphere. 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.

Dependence on chemicals (such as alcohol or drugs) or behaviors (such as sex, gambling, spending, etc) can begin to limit our choices in life. When the line is crossed to dependency or addiction, there is a hopeless and frustrating feeling that will come over us. Please understand that there is a way through this and you do not have to continue to suffer. If your use of the drugs, alcohol or behavior is costing you, know that there is a solution and counseling will help you figure out a plan to address the issue.

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.
