Elizabeth's work with addictions center around the role of dopamine in the addiction cycle as well as brain adaptations (compensation and withdrawal).

I offer counseling services to individuals with addictions and substance abuse problems, and to those who love them. Whether alcohol, drugs, gambling, sex, or another variety, addiction usually begins as an effort to self-medicate. The person feels relief after partaking, so the desire to use the method again becomes stronger until it becomes an addiction. I individualize plans to tailor to your needs and offer evidence-based solutions to help you regain control of your life. In addition, I am a U.S. Department of Transporation Services Substance Abuse Professional which means that I work with commercial transportation workers who have tested positive for a substance while on the job. Call today to talk about your needs.

I have worked with addictions for most of my career. Whether this is for you or a loved one, I would love the opportunity to help you. If you are early in your sobriety I will help guide you through this experience and keep you focused on what is safest and healthiest for you. If you have some sobriety under your belt, I will help you maintain your new healthy lifestyle to keep you on track. I am excited to help you take care of yourself.
