Alcohol or drug use is a silent killer of energy, happiness, and peace of mind.
Only one more beer. Only one more pill. Only one more joint or dab. This time is the last time!
Yet, here you are again. Feeling guilt. Feeling shame. Unsure of what to do or how to proceed.
Relationships with friends and family are affected. Work or school is suffering.
You know you can quit, but at the same time, don’t know if you can quit.
At this point you’re tired of only feeling “normal” after you’ve had a couple beers, a few pills, or a few hits. Being completely sober feels terrible. Wondering if you could stop, why other people “don’t need it,” and “what’s wrong with me?”
How Therapy Helps
Individual substance abuse therapy with me is an experience of getting yourself “unstuck” from patterns of alcohol and drug use that are no longer satisfying and are getting in the way of living and loving your life.
The process of therapy is about collaborating to examine your current thoughts and behaviors to identify the underlying reasons for your alcohol and drug use.
In all instances of alcohol and drug use, we find that the individual is using the substances for a specific purpose. Often this purpose is to alleviate certain emotions, feelings, thoughts, or to escape from their current situation.
Let’s take the time to uncover the reasons for your alcohol and drug use!
