Substance Use Therapy
Substance use is a complex and stigmatized issue which often prevents people from seeking help.
Substance use varies widely from person to person, ranging from experimental or social use, to dependence or addiction and everything in between. It becomes problematic for people at different stages and for unique reasons, but the commonality is that it effects the brain and body in damaging ways.
Perhaps you have noticed you’ve given up previously adored hobbies and replaced them with time spent using.
Maybe you have heard from loved ones concerning stories about what you did while under the influence.
It might feel like your body is struggling to keep up and you’re not feeling as healthy as you used to be.
You might be wondering how and why you got here.
Regardless of your concern, substance use therapy starts with the identifying the whys. Using Motivational Interviewing, we explore:
​
-
Why you want to change
-
Why might you not be ready for change
-
Why you use
-
Why other coping feels like it’s not enough
-
And so much more
We then work toward finding healthy replacements, positive community support, and relapse prevention strategies. We will strive to get your power back in order to live a joyful, healthy, and fulfilling life.
It can be so hard to live with substance use and so scary to think of living without it, but you don’t have to do it alone.
