ADDICTION COUNSELING
As your
addiction counselor I will
draw from
my extensive experience
working in
highly effective treatment programs to
help you in creating a
plan of action
that will work.
As an experienced
professional addiction counselor I can
be a
valuable source of guidance,
understanding, and support for you
during this initial and challenging
transition phase.
Whether you
are struggling with alcohol abuse or
dependence, substance abuse or
dependence, or other addictions such as
problem gambling, internet pornography
addiction, sex and love addiction I will
help you develop and implement
a
program that will work.
This program
will be
individually tailored to your
needs and I will
help you stay on
track and
avoid the many ways you
can easily be derailed so you can
finally get the results and recovery
that will change your life.
Having an
experienced professional in
your corner, who is
highly
trained
with
extensive experience
as an addiction counselor, is important
when your life is at risk. I can assist
you in working through your fears and
addiction treatment, uncertainties and
doubts and
move you more quickly
toward results. It is very
satisfying to me helping people move
from a life of great pain and
hopelessness to
a life that is richer
and fuller than they ever thought
possible.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
The
initial session,
when I
first meet with you is typically a
ninety-minute appointment. This time
will allow us to have
a good
start
as there
is a lot of information that needs
to be known to me. Scheduling
ninety-minutes together allows you
to share about your issues more
fully so we can understand them
better. This will help us to
begin
developing a plan of action that
will result in you realizing the
recovery that has eluded you to this
point.
During our time together, I will
give you assignments to follow up
on.
You will
learn about addiction, where it
lives and why it has defeated you up
to this point.
Some of the things you can expect
from me during our time together
includes:
·
Coaching
you
specifically about what works and
what does not work.
·
Teaching
you
relapse
prevention skills, behaviors and
attitudes that work to help get the
recovery that has eluded you to this
point.
·
Educating you on what an effective
program of recovery is and what does
it mean to be working a program? I
will show you what working a program
looks like and I
will help
you stay on track.
·
You will learn why addiction is less
about the drugs and alcohol than the
reasons you are taking them.
·
After you become stabilized as a
result of following a plan of action
that works we can begin to look at
the issues that are driving your
addiction and deal with them in a
way so that
you can
at last obtain a lasting and quality
recovery.
If you are
ready to learn and follow a
comprehensive plan that will result
in you getting your life back
and
out of the bondage of addiction or
alcohol abuse or dependency and want
to get the life you never thought
was possible, then
