Substance abuse often starts as a way to cope—with stress, trauma, difficult emotions, or pain. But over time, what once felt like relief can begin to create more problems: in relationships, at work, and in your sense of self. You might feel stuck in a cycle you didn’t mean to be in, unsure how to break free.
Substance use isn’t a moral failing—it’s a response to something deeper. And with support, change is absolutely possible.
Signs of a Substance Use Problem:
- Using alcohol or drugs to manage stress, emotions, or boredom
- Feeling out of control with how much or how often you use
- Struggling with work, school, or relationships due to use
- Feeling guilty, ashamed, or secretive about your use
- Trying to cut back but not being able to
- Needing more of the substance to get the same effect
How We Help
We help you get to the root of what’s driving your substance use—whether that’s trauma, anxiety, depression, or life stress—and work with you to develop healthier ways to cope. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), you’ll learn how to recognize patterns, challenge negative thoughts, and build practical tools to handle cravings and triggers.
We also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you reconnect with your values—those deeper parts of yourself that may have been buried by addiction. ACT supports you in moving toward a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling, even when uncomfortable thoughts or urges show up.
You don’t have to do this alone. Recovery is about progress, not perfection—and we’re here to walk beside you each step of the way.
