Substance Use Therapists in Saint Petersburg, FL

Despite everyday difficulties such as feeling alone, family and school conflict, grief, stress, anxiety, or depression, children and adolescents deserve to live a life filled with meaning, purpose, and happiness. Together, through a client-centered approach, we will work to identify what issues they want to work on and bring about a positive life change.

You are feeling trapped. Stuck in a seemingly endless loop of unwanted thoughts, fears, or painful memories. You feel like the only way to get relief is to avoid what hurts or do something…anything to quiet the thoughts. Your symptoms have made your life smaller and smaller until you don't even recognize who you are or who you were meant to be. You only see your symptoms. OCD, anxiety, depression, substance use , and/or trauma make you feel like you are on an island alone.

I am currently offering teletherapy. I work with individuals, couples, and families to help identify goals, create a plan, and help access the client's own strengths to find solutions. If your relationship is in pain, you and all family members may feel the impact. Whether you wish to learn how to increase a positive connection or repair a serious tear in that relationship, I will create a safe environment for you to resolve your differences, look at underlying causes of difficulties, and learn healthier and less reactive ways of relating to one another.

Want to feel better, more in control, and enjoy life again? Struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, overwhelmed by daily life? Drinking too much or battling other addictions? I am here to help. I am an empathetic, highly trained counselor with 12 years of experience. Therapy gives you a safe place to explore your thoughts and behaviors with a trained, non-judgment professional. I help you learn strategies so you can better deal with your challenges, set goals, and gain new perspectives to lead you to a happier, more fulfilling and productive life. Tried therapy before? Not with me! I help you get results!

If you're struggling with sadness, anger, addiction, or purpose; therapy can be a safe place to share and explore your current challenges. I will help support and guide you in the therapeutic process to foster your healing and growth. Having a confidential & non-judgmental space to share is essential in the counseling process & my top priority.

Are you struggling with relationships? Are you experiencing the many ways substance use can create pain, whether for you or someone you love? Are you living with a mental health condition that requires support? Identifying limiting beliefs and unhelpful behaviors is an essential step to living an emotionally stable life, whatever difficult crossroads you may be experiencing. Often, emotional recovery begins with healing long-buried childhood trauma. My goal in therapy with you is to be your guide on this healing journey. You don't have to do it alone. And I believe relief can sometimes happen as early as the first session.

I have over 25 yrs experience working with individuals facing mental health and substance use concerns. I strive to provide an open safe space with no judgement to discuss thoughts, feelings and behaviors with the intention of creating opportunities for change. These changes may be practiced and adjusted as needed to find a solution that fits the unique person that is you. If one is trying to make a change and has a slip aka "blip in the radar of life". We do not start all over, we look at what was learned with curiosity and start again where we are in the process. This is a shame and blame free zone. We are all works in progress.

Hi! I'm so happy you're considering beginning therapy! I strongly believe that each therapist is a little different and its important to choose the best fit for you. Here is a little bit about me: I have worked with primarily adults and adolescents in residential facilities living with substance use disorders and other co-occurring disorders. I also have experience working with families, couples, and individuals living with mood disorders, self-harming behavior, anxiety, anger, identity/sexuality development, body image, relationship issues, self-esteem, trauma, personality disorders, and grief.

Has your teen been struggling lately? Does it feel like you don't recognize who your teen is becoming? Or are you a young adult stressed out about what you're "supposed" to be doing, and what's next? Maybe it's that you just need someone to help you take that deep breath and sort out all of it. Whether it is from recent events, or those in the past that have impacted you, you do not have to be alone in this journey. If you are noticing more bad days than good, or that those bad days are becoming really bad, I want to help you navigate through these moments.

I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment that allows for individuals to grow and heal. I have experience working with individuals struggling with substance use , eating disorders, self-esteem, anger, anxiety, and depression. I have a great understanding that individuals and their experiences are unique and each requires a different approach.

My clients often struggle with anxiety and feeling overwhelmed by how their alcohol or drug abuse has gotten out of control. Family & friends don't understand why they can't just stop. By working together many times this problem can be solved & quickly turned around and it doesn’t always mean going to 12 step meetings. Clients who work with me show quick positive results. No hangovers, feeling sick or feeling ashamed of the night before. Can you imagine waking up & feeling happy to start the day? That can totally be you.

Finding balance in this unpredictable world can sometimes seem unachievable. Together, we can find a balance that best fits you. Our fast-pace and demanding society makes limited time for personal issues or difficult life events, causing a detriment to our mental health and wellbeing. With an integrated approach, we can target your health from all angles including mind, body, and spirit. My goal for therapy is teaching you the skills needed to find your balance so you can flourish in your daily life. Whatever your journey, I will help you implement knowledge and tools to overcome barriers of the past, present, and future.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or discouraged? Perhaps the causes of these feelings are everyday stressors or pressures of major life events that have happened to you.

I collaborate with individuals to help you navigate through different challenges, such as interpersonal relationship issues, life transitions, substance use , anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. Together we will find a way to manage your stress, heal, and improve the quality of your life! “Healing is the end of conflict with yourself”- Stephanie Gailing
