I assist clients dealing with addiction and the related co-occurring issues (anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD/ADD, stress, bipolar, schizo-affective, schizophrenic, etc.). All of my clients have experienced some type of trauma, PTSD, childhood emotional neglect, intergenerational family issues, spiritual emergency / psychosis, etc., and addiction has been the result. Clients who have been impacted are in my estimation actually highly sensitive people and highly spiritual people. I now offer an 11-Session Emotional Integration Training program that teaches you to manage your emotions in a skillful way putting the tools in your hands.
The substance (or addiction) is never the problem, it's a symptom of the problem. The cause is ALWAYS a Core Issue. We'll explore your story, find out what happened, and teach you how to re-imagine your life in this new context focused on your strengths using a Collaborative Conversational Method. Our Emotional Integration Training Course is also available.
I will teach you Practical Applications of Spiritual Care and Science. You will understand what is happening at a neuro-biological level and learn my Cognitive-Emotional Understanding approach to integrate your experiences at an emotional level. Changing thinking is not enough, the underlying emotion/belief has to change FIRST.
