Addiction Therapists in Texas City, TX.

My approach to helping individuals or families with addiction encompasses trying to understand the benefit of the addiction in this person's life. How has the addiction provided some need that is not being fulfilled elsewhere within the family? We would explore the role of the addiction, transition into sobriety, and then work on recovery from the addiction and what that new normal resembles.

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.

Through personalized treatment plans, clients will benefit from a holistic approach that addresses physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of addiction. My goal is to empower clients to identify triggers, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and build a strong foundation for lasting recovery. Together, we will create a safe and supportive environment where clients can work towards sobriety, healing, and a renewed sense of purpose, ultimately leading to a life free from the constraints of addiction.

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.

In Addictions Counseling and Treatment, clients will benefit from my compassionate and evidence-based approach that addresses the physical, psychological, and emotional aspects of addiction. I create a non-judgmental and safe space where clients can openly discuss their struggles and motivations. Together, we work on identifying the root causes of addiction, whether they are related to trauma, mental health issues, or environmental factors. Through a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and relapse prevention strategies, I help clients develop coping skills, build resilience, and cultivate a strong support network. My goal is to empower clients.

Often times people engage in addictive behaviors as a way to avoid some type of emotion or trauma. Insight into these emotions will be explored. Healthy ways of coping will be discussed along with relaxation training. I will also teach about the relationship between thoughts, feelings and actions. Triggers of the addiction and ways to avoid this triggers will ablso be explored.

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.
