addiction therapy
Substance abuse counseling in San Diego and throughout California
Are you aching to live a life you don’t have to escape from?
Maybe you’ve noticed that nightly glass of wine has started to become two or three, or perhaps you’re sick of waking up hungover and exhausted. Maybe it’s getting harder and harder to moderate, or your substance use is starting to look different than everybody else’s. Perhaps you’re feeling scared, out of control and ashamed that you can’t just ‘get it together’.
On top of that, the impact of your substance use is starting to trickle into other areas of your life:
You find it harder to manage social obligations or tasks without engaging in your substance of choice
Sometimes you hide how much you’re actually consuming from those in your life for fear of judgment or concern
You’ve tried to quit or cut back, but somehow keep ending up back at the same place, despite your hard-fought effort
addiction therapy can help
It may feel impossible now, but you can find freedom from the trap of addiction. You can gain back control of your life and feel good again. You can stop hiding in a pool of shame telling yourself you’re a failure. I can help you get there, without having to assign labels or lurk in dark rooms appealing to your higher power.
Addiction therapy can help you to:
Determine your own unique goals and path forward on your recovery journey (hint: it’s NOT one size fits all)
Explore the reasons your addiction was working so well for you in the past, and discover how to replace habitual patterns with more adaptive ones
Learn the tools that will help you break free of this cycle and start to enjoy life again
I’ll help you through this process, tailoring each step to your unique needs and circumstances. My approach to addiction therapy is person-centered, shame-free, and inclusive of all gender, race, sexual orientation, religious and cultural experiences.
it’s time to find a better way to live
I can help you get there.
