Top addiction therapists in 33438: Canal Point, FL.

I approach each client suffering from addiction as a unique individual with distinct life experiences that have contributed to the development of their addiction. Successful treatment of addiction requires an individualized approach to effectively address these causes and treat them adequately. In addition, substance dependence needs to be assessed and treated in a holistic manner taking into account biological, psychological, social, and developmental facets of an individuals life.

I treat compulsive thinking and behavior (addictions) of most any type. This may include but not be limited to drugs, food, cigarettes, sex, sex/love or ritualistic behaviors beyond one's ability to manage or control. My approach is both in-depth with a goal of insight and understanding and solution-focused. Please call for a consultation to discuss your particular presenting problem(s) so we can address why this has happened to you and what to do about it.

If you are suffering with drug addiction, there are ways to be free. No one needs to let an addiction ruin their life. Your addiction is just one tiny part of who you are. It doesn't define you.

I worked in adolescent and adult PHP/IOP/OP rehabilitation centers for individuals diagnosed with a substance use disorder, and/or a co-occurring diagnosis such as depression, anxiety, eating disorder, trauma or other mental health issues. I used various proven therapy techniques to help my clients learn new coping behaviors, learn how to stop impulsive behaviors, and recognize how their thinking influenced their behavior.

In private practice I continue to work with clients who are in recovery, or seeking therapy to

I believe that the notion of "addictive personalities" is nonsense. There are important differences between drug addiction and so-called internet addiction, for example. I know that addictions arise for many reasons, and that we may never understand most of those reasons. Happily, people can and do overcome addictions without having to understand all of its mysterious causes. 12-step programs are popular, but I reject the idea that we must surrender control of our behavior to a higher power in order to solve these problems. Building solutions for addictions is not very different from building solutions to other problems. We need only use our existing strengths in ways that make sense.
