Substance Abuse Counseling

Like alcohol use, drug abuse, whether it's narcotics, stimulants, hypnotics, stimulants or hallucinogenics, can easily lead the substance abuser into stressful and unmanageable life situations, causing damaged family relationships, unsustained personal relationships with partners or friends, financial problems, and serious health risks.Treatment for drug addiction can only take place when one's recovery experience is a fully dedicated one; at the same time, rehab centers provide healthier alternatives to address the original issues that initially led to substance abuse. 

At Extrordinary Counseling, I:

• Help you understand what is driving you to misuse drugs
• Work with you to resolve these underlying issues
• Help you understand the broader picture of addictive processes as they play out in your life
• Give you the tools to live a happy and fulfilling life without the need for drugs

Drug use is not confined to isolated scenes or subcultures. Drug use is prevalent and pervasive and cuts across social, gender and age lines. Anyone can be affected by such problematic use.

In addition to treating the actual addiction in terms of the habit, the routine, the ritual, or the automatic response, I also work with our clients to teach them how to identify and cope with these issues beneath the surface.

At Extrordinary Counseling, I also:

• Help you understand what is driving you to use alcohol
• Work with you to resolve these underlying issues
• Build you up and empower you with a sense that not only are your issues manageable, but that alcohol is not a necessary or even a helpful solution
• Give you the tools to live a happy and fulfilling life without alcohol and its devastating effects.
