Substance Use Therapists in Melbourne, FL
I have been a therapist for over 30 years and have worked extensively in addiction and mental health. Clients have differing expectations from counseling. Throughout my years as a counselor, I have heard some clients say that they have had counseling in the past but it did not help them. At other times, clients start counseling but then decide it is not the right time for them. Counseling takes commitment on the part of the client and an honest appraisal of what is working and not working in their lives. Counseling is a difficult process but one that yields wonderful, lifetime dividends.

Life can be difficult, unfair, and unpredictable. Sometimes we find ourselves feeling lost, overwhelmed, anxious or having difficulty facing life transitions. Everyone needs a little support once in a while. You do not have to face your challenges alone. Together, we can find a way to make new meaning of your life; change behaviors that leave you feeling disconnected, lost or alone; and focus on your personal strengths and goals. I will work alongside you to help you understand yourself better and learn new ways of thinking about your life and yourself.

My philosophy is that you are already whole - creative, intuitive and bright! There is nothing broken, perhaps just fuzzy, or frustrating. Have you tried traditional therapy and been dissatisfied by the lack of results? Agreed! However, there is rich territory inside of you to explore. You may have people in your life you admire - even adore. Their best qualities are already inside of you, waiting to emerge. Our work together will produce results for you quickly -out of emotional pain and moving forward with hope. I have been a coach and therapist for a long time and there is little I have not experienced. There is hope.

You may have come to find me because the conflicts in your life are increasing and with it comes the pressure and added stress that we all know serves only to break us down over time or to keep us stuck in a rut. Is it the challenges of your relationship, the challenges of parenting a difficult child, are you trying to navigate the role of single parenting or stymied over a relationship that is not growing, lacking intimacy or trying to survive infidelity. Every role comes with it's own challenge, and every problem has within it the opportunity for growth.

Christians often struggle with depression, anxiety, addictions or other issues. These struggles can led you to feel as if you are defective or damaged beyond God's ability to repair. This couldn't be further from the truth. Nothing is impossible with God, and even our deepest wounds and behaviors that fill us with shame and guilt are not beyond reach for his healing. Often, Christians struggle to find a counselor who shares their world view and can understand their beliefs and needs. Sometimes, you can become discouraged by others around you who are trying to help, but don't have the training to help you obtain needed healing.
