Struggling with Addictive behaviors doesn't make you an Addict, Wearing the Label does 

          Addiction is still highly misunderstood in some parts of the world and completely unknown in others. Regardless of what behavior one is struggling with (misuse of weed, alcohol, pills, pornography, masturbation, extramarital affairs, love addiction), it can bring anxiety, stress, depression, panic attacks, loss of enjoyment in everyday activities, and feelings of being stuck or lost in life. These addictive behaviors lead to strained relationships from miscommunication on how to help and receive help.

Drastic changes need to be made when working with addictive habits/behaviors. Whether you find yourself smoking weed every chance you get, drinking most days of the week (or significantly more than your friends when you go out), taking pills to cut the edge, or losing valuable time masturbating to pornography, you have the power to break free from these dangerous and negatively life altering habits. The addictive habit is the issues, NOT YOU. I can help separate you from the monster you feel you have become and regain a sense of control. I don’t judge or criticize you for trying to make your life easier by using these addictive substances, I am passionate about helping you find healthier alternatives.

              Regardless of how you got here or how long it’s been. Let go of what is holding you back from the life you deserve.  Addiction is a label that should never be worn. You are not an addict, you struggle with addiction and addictive behaviors. Allow me to walk with you as we explore what bonds you to your drug of choice and find other coping skills that bring long term change.  If there is anything holding you back from achieving the life you would like to live,  call or text me. Don’t let these impulsive behaviors keep you from being the man you are. Addiction can be completely debilitating and demoralizing. A deep desire to quit, but NO idea how to get there... What many don't understand is that addiction can occur to anyone, at any age, regardless of their background. Addictive behaviors don’t discriminate. Addiction also comes in many forms, extramarital affairs, alcohol, weed, pills, masturbation, pornography… Take the upper hand and contact me today. Don’t stand alone any longer.

My Approach

           Addictive habits to weed, alcohol, pills, extramarital affairs, or sexual behaviors are some of the most difficult behaviors to work with, but also some of the most rewarding when even the smallest achievements are made. With years of experience in working with addiction, I understand the struggles and barriers being faced day in and day out. Therefore, I strive to use a variety of approaches that fit your needs from person centered therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to Gestalt, and experiential therapy. 

          Life is meant to be enjoyed and you have what it takes to make it happen. Achieving a balanced life without the need to smoke weed, grab an IPA, take a pill or isolate while viewing pornography and masturbating allows you to utilize the talents you possess and lead to an exciting and fulfilling life. Let us explore what is occurring in your life that is preventing you from fully experiencing it.
