Top addiction therapists in 73118: Oklahoma City, OK.

When working with folks who struggle with impulsive or "addictive" behavior, oftentimes the focus isn't on the behavior itself, but the role the behavior plays in the person's life. Exploring unmet needs, maladaptive coping mechanisms, escapism, excessive self-soothing and more normally come to the surface. Often through processing these feelings, emotions, and desires the focus of therapy shifts to the managing of the persons functioning and preferred way of living in the world.

I started out 38 years ago working mainly with addictions. One of my highest success levels is in addictions. Of-course, addiction comes in many styles and forms, but they have a lot in common. Many addictions are a poor attempt to cover up something one is wanting to run or hide from. It does not take long to find that out by just listening to you. Then we go to work resolving that hang-up. I have learned the power of listening, it, in and of itself is a great healer.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step progams, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brian 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
