Specializing in KAP for people struggling with substance misuse
The word “treatment”, especially in the context of addiction, can sound like punishment. The idea of “recovery” can feel like a threat to what allows you to cope, may have helped you survive, and could even be a part of what makes you feel alive. Recovery does not require a desire to change. Therapy with me can help prepare for change. We’ll start by building a therapeutic relationship based on trust. We then build your intrinsic reward system so that you are moving towards something, not away from it. You will (re)discover your voice, learn to tolerate strong emotions, and build on your existing strengths so that you can answer the question: “Why am I doing this?”.
