Samuel N Hollander
Drug & Alcohol Counselor, MEd, LADC
I have been practicing psychotherapy for almost 40 years; While I am a licensed addiction counselor, I have also dealt extensively with all of the issues mentioned on this page. I believe therapy to be an art form, inasmuch as each person, couple or family has their own singular story, and their own needs; My job is to employ the best approach for that individual or family. I utilize metaphor and humor as tools to help re-frame a perspective or shed light on a troublesome concept, often helping clients look at a particular difficulty in a new way.
Being an LADC, or licensed addiction counselor makes me especially qualified to deal with all aspects of addiction, from treating the individual who suffers from addiction, as well as family members or others who are effected by it. I have performed many interventions as well.
Another specialty of mine is working with adolescents. Admittedly, they are a challenging population, but I have enjoyed working with them over many years. I maintain that adolescents are like Ferraris (0-60 in 3 seconds) but without brakes; I work to help teens develop them.
