Drug & Alcohol Counselor, Bonnie , PhD, LCADC

When we understand what is happening in our brain, and how we can expect to heal, we see hope. Though addiction of any kind is painful, it is manageable; we can be free. By learning to identify the thoughts, feelings, and beliefs that may be holding us back, we can begin to let go of the bad, including trauma, and build in more good. If you are worried you may have a problem with alcohol, drugs, food addiction, gambling, or sexual imagery, or just want to break self-destructive habits and develop better ones, email me and we can schedule a phone call (free of charge) to talk about our work.

Having to be strong, tough, and on all the time can be draining. Compound all of that with having to do it while hiding your emotions can be doubly stressful. Black men are raised to be resilient and silent, to take what life throws at you without complaining “Just Man Up!”. Being raised to be strong was the message. Weakness is not to be shown or felt. Now when you’re upset or overwhelmed you have nowhere to turn for help.
