Addiction Therapy

Steve Harper (He)

LPC, MCOUN, MED

A deeper connection to ourselves can reduce our need for immediate gratification. Dialectical Therapy compares the margins in between our thoughts and feelings. Gaining new awareness helps us work through challenges by allowing us to consider our experiences more accurately. Increasing awareness to our own experience has everything to do with how we relate to ourselves and others.

Ryan Kopyar

Professional Counselor Associate

Professional Counselor Associate and LMHCA

I have worked through my own addiction issues, and it was through my own healing that I learned so much about the root causes of addiction. I don’t focus on treating the “what” and instead focus on the “why?” You can't change the fruit until you change the root. Helping people truly overcome addiction means truly getting to the root cause of the problem and making a change there.

Motivational Interviewing is a tool used in addiction therapy which helps to address ambivalence in a person's quest to reduce substance use. There is a part of you that knows you need to cut down usage...yet you also need that substance as a security blanket or a coping strategy. Motivational interviewing helps us to address this. I am comfortable working with clients with both abstinence and moderation management/harm reduction models.

Beverley Duke-Young (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

B.S, M.S.

Many people are caught up in some destructive patterns that can be very difficult to change. Understanding other options to intervene on our habits that have us rather than us having them is necessary to being able to act in our own best interest. Learn with me what it takes! Attachment issues play a huge role in why we become so addicted and attempt to control what we have no real control over.

Rhys Pasimio (He/Him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

My addiction therapy is a combination of Internal Family Systems, Somatic, Narrative, ACT, and mindfulness approaches that emphasize daily practices to sustain the sober way of life. The goal of addictions therapy is for a person's whole life to be transformed, and all their relationships to be healed. This takes time, diligence, and community.

Christine Finucane (She/her/hers)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, SUDP, LICSW, SEP

I believe there are many approaches to healing addiction. The disease model is one of the most prevalent models for understanding addiction. There are helpful components of this model such as issues of control centered around the object of addiction and the thinking that accompanies this. Addiction can also be a response to unprocessed trauma. Developing a mindful approach to treating addiction allows for a different relationship with it. Change is possible when we learn to live in the present.
