Substance Use Therapists in Methuen, MA

Hello, I am a multi-cultural licensed mental health counselor as well as a certified trauma specialist (CTS) since 2013. In my 20 years of experience, I have worked in a variety of agency settings, including; outpatient, inpatient, in home family therapy, adventure therapy, substance use treatment in IOP, adult community based treatment and dementia facilities. Life is ever changing, and at times we need non -judgmental guidance. With the right support system and a focus on your strengths, anything is possible. Let me help you get there. In my free time, I can be found camping, singing, dancing and enjoying arts and crafts.​

Life can come with a lot of curveballs some that we can handle others can be more difficult. Life can start to become a rollercoaster that never ends. Having that one person you can speak to about life without judgement can help alleviate some of those curveballs. As a pre-licensed professional my purpose is to meet others where they are and help them discover themselves without feeling restricted. While helping them heal from their past. I am trained in numerous forms of therapy, including motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and person-centered therapy.

I pride myself for being an LGBTQIA+ affirming Licensed Mental Health Clinician and am apart of the community myself. I have a strong passion for helping others heal and discover their resilience from a person-centered, strengths-based perspective. While my primary focus is building a genuine connection and individualizing my approach to each person’s specific needs, I use a variety of interventions in session all from a trauma-informed perspective. My goal is to create a space for clients to be vulnerable in while challenging them to achieve identified goals

Are you seeking a compassionate guide to navigate the complexities of life's challenges? As a master's level licensed clinician, specializing in Substance Use/Addiction, Grief and Loss, Trauma, Relationship Issues/Communication, Anxiety, and Stress Management, I am dedicated to empowering individuals on their path to wellness.

I am a substance abuse and mental health counselor, who genuinely enjoys working with people. I believe almost all people who suffer with an addiction have an underlying mental health issue, trauma, depression, anxiety and low self esteem. I understand that addiction renders you powerless and in many cases extreme embarrassment. Mental health issues can be equally disabling and embarrassing. I can help you, no shame, embarrassment, just understanding and guidance as you move along your path of recovery. In some cases medication may be recommended and I work with three established Nurse Practitioners who accept referrals.

We all go through transitions. Sometimes they seem as easy as exhaling after holding your breath. Then there are the times when it can be painful, overwhelming, and lonely. Whether you’re going to the next level of education, starting a career, or changing jobs, it can make life feel scary and uncertain (kind of like deciding to explore an eternal abyss). That’s where I come in. I’m here to help you cross whatever proverbial bridge you have in front you. Since 2015, I've worked with folks from 12 to 60 going through some changes using an eclectic but meaningful combination of theories and inventions.

I am competent in working with different cultural perspectives and views. Some of my clients see me for coaching on goal setting, problem solving, relationship issues, motivation, business or career questions. I work extensively with addiction, including alcohol, drug, shopping, gambling, and smoking cessation. Other clients see me for Depression, Anxiety, and family issues. In addition, I work with clients to change core beliefs formed in childhood to help them live happier lives. I counsel couples to teach them how to be respectful yet effective with one another, resolve issues express feelings, and make different choices.

Hello! I'm Jodie. Although I have specialized in working with children and adolescents, I also work with adults who have experienced trauma or struggle with other stressors. Past roles include senior leadership positions for nonprofits in the state of Massachusetts. This included working closely with DCF, DMH, and DJJ in order to support children and families. One single approach is not suitable for everyone, so I take an integrative approach to therapy. I am trained in Trauma-Focused CBT, ACT, Forensic Social Work, and Brief Therapy. I am also a master's Level Expert for CPCS. Public defenders can hire me as a consultant on cases.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 13 years of experience in the field. I work with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, and life changes. It is my belief that sometimes just having an objective person to talk to is all a person needs to realize his or her potential, inner conflicts and increase self esteem. As a first generation American to immigrant parents, I also work with multicultural issues that young adults often face. My specialties include but are not limited to opioid dependence, dual diagnosis, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Please email me at nsondhi@partners-in-therapy.net.

We use 10 acres of land on a farm we revived to give hope toward the pursuit of happiness and wholeness. Growth does not happen in an office; it happens while gardening, trimming hooves, picking eggs, shearing sheep, and chopping wood. We use the land to help you stretch your eyes. Maybe your search is around coping skills or developing interior athletics or just getting active again. Whatever it may be, we will support and guide you in finding wellness. We are prepared to confidentially, professionally, and in an nontraditional manner take some steps in addressing your mental health difficulties. Come join us on this journey.

Many people who come to see me have frequently had disappointing experiences with therapists in the past "We just didn't click" or "all they did was nod their heads and didn't say much". When you run out of ways to make change and don't know how to do it, the last thing you need to feel in therapy is alone. Change takes energy, action, hard work and sometimes the support and guidance of someone to help you make it!

I have had a private therapy practice in Andover and Westford, Ma. for nearly 30 years. During this time, I have worked with those struggling with a variety of concerns including relationships, parenting, identity, work and careers, depression, anxiety, trauma, school and education, gender, and cultures. Generally, the individuals, couples, and families with whom I work come to my office in some sort of pain or discomfort as they move back and forth between their real and ideal lives.The conversations we have shed light on what is happening and to try to help reduce feelings of pain and distress.

Finding the right "fit" for therapy is one of the most important tasks for a client. Therapy that is grounded in a positive therapeutic relationship works. I strive to help build this type of relationship with clients.

When you improve your relationship with yourself and your relationships with others, you are “on the path” to a happier, healthier life. I’d like to help you along that path. Together, we can explore a range of approaches: whatever works. But – so you know where I’m coming from – in the end, it’s always about relationships. I’d like to meet you.

If you want something you have never had in this life, you have to be willing to do something you have never done. You deserve to live a life full of peace, love, and happiness. You are important. Your feelings matter, your voice matters, your story matters, and your life matters. You have the power to seize your happiness, you just have to look within to find it. Many times it is our negative perspective that hinders us from living the life that we deserve. If we could change that perspective, turn it into a positive one, we can regain control of our lives.
