Top addiction therapists in 33476: Pahokee, 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.
