Substance Abuse

Substance Abuse Counseling Peachtree City GALet’s face it…substance abuse is tough to talk about.  After all, NOBODY WANTS TO BE AN ADDICT!  My job is to talk about those uncomfortable topics so you can become the best possible version of yourself.

In fact, the focus of my therapy practice is to work with men and women who are suffering from some sort of addiction.

  • Alcoholism
  • Cocaine Addiction
  • Methamphetamine Addiction
  • Heroin Addiction
  • Prescription Pill Addiction
  • Marijuana Addiction

I’ve worked with lots of folks who thought they could never get sober.  But I’ve had the great privilege of seeing people completely turn their lives around.  As long as you are still breathing, you can still likely get clean and sober.

Getting sober is hard…even under the best of circumstances.  Getting sober is almost impossible alone.

How Does It Work?

In some ways this is hard to answer because people are so different.  Every client is a unique individual with their own mix of strengths and challenges.  So every time I work with someone the process is literally designed for that person.

But, in general the process looks something like this…

  • We spend time getting to know each other
  • I try to get an understanding of who you are and where you have been
  • We talk about the dangers of using as well as the dangers of quitting (yes stopping without monitoring can sometimes be dangerous as well)
  • We will work together to determine whether my services are the best way for you to get sober
  • If we decide to work together we will meet regularly and talk about all sorts of topics including…
    • how addiction affects your brain
    • strategies for managing relapse
    • dealing with family and friends while you are getting sober
    • healing your mind, body and spirit
    • enjoying a sober lifestyle
    • any associated feelings of anxiety or depression that sometimes accompany recovery
