Addiction Treatment & Recovery

With over two decades of experience my complementary treatment is broadly-based on a cognitive behavioral approach to the care of substance use, dependency and addiction. Through Grouped psychotherapy we get to the root of psychological and behavioral dysfunctions; using the latest scientific research into counseling techniques, psychotherapy technology, herbology, nutrition, exercise science, and alternative medicine techniques and technologies to better understand and treat addiction and related disorders. The research is unequivocal that Twelve Step and abstinence-only approaches are not the best way to address addition.
