CRIMINAL PROBATION COUNSELING
ADDICTION
if you are in need of an assessment for court I can provide this service. I can also be a referral for treatment while on probation. This service is available for adults and teens.
My goal when working with clients is for them to change their relationship with substances. Addiction will alter the mind, body and spirit. Understanding how addiction impacts these areas is essential to getting better.
RELATIONSHIP COUNSELING
Substance use and abuse has direct impacts on all of our relationships (spouse, parent, co-workers, other family members). It is important to meet with family and understand that addiction is a family disease.
STRESS & TRAUMA
Many clients use substances to self medicate stress and trauma in their lives. Working through and acknowledging this is beneficial in the recovery process. Learning to work through anxiety and develop coping skills is part of the work.
PARENTING DIFFICULTIES
Teen years are challenging enough without adding mood altering substances into their life. I am a firm believer that parents need to be part of the treatment when I work with teens. I like to meet with parent and teen together and get an idea of what is going on.
ANGRY OUTBURSTS
Anger is part of recovery. Clients over time develop a relationship with substances. When this is taken away a natural reaction is anger. When clients are using mood altering substances moods are impacted. It is not uncommon to see and experience anger. This is part of recovery and can be healthy if exhibited in a healthy safe manner.
FAMILY THERAPY
Substance use impacts the whole family. I help work with codependency issues with families as well as how to live with a substance user and develop healthy skills.
ANXIETY
Many clients use substances to help with anxiety as well as clients experiencing anxiety when stopping substances. Learning coping mechanisms and how to respond to these feelings is available in counseling.
