Addictions or Substance Abuse
Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
It's hard to admit when we have a problem. The truth is addiction isn't really about the substance, it's about what's going on beneath the surface. In therapy, I create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where we can discover what is really going on so we can face it, transcend it, and transform in the process.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., AMFT
As someone who has struggled with addiction, I deeply understand the feeling of needing to use or abuse substances in order to survive in this world. The shame we feel when we are in the quicksand of addiction stunts our growth and keeps us in the same place. The fact is, addiction tricks us into thinking we are mitigating pain when in reality it is producting more trauma within us. My goal is to create a safe environment for you to express all your feelings about your addiction with no shame or judgment so you can feel motivated to make change.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Adam Luke M.A. LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The truth is addiction does not discriminate. Addiction does not care how amazing or how hurtful your family of origin is. You cannot escape addiction by moving to a different zip code or sitting in a different church pew. Addiction is indifferent to your hopes or dreams.
But your story is not a story about hopelessness; YOUR story is a story about redemption. A story that starts with taking back the power in your life, repairing relationships, and prioritizing your own value. This therapy process is about choosing yourself over previous emotional wounds and trauma. A realization that regardless of your vice, your life is worth more, your influence is worth more, and your life HAS MORE to give.
The cold hard facts are simple. NO ONE wakes up one day and says, “I cannot wait to be addicted to ________.” However, every day someone wakes up and asks themselves, “How am I going to get past my fears, this pain, my lack of self-worth, my feelings of hopelessness?”
The quick answer to that question? We try to escape through distraction. We look for instant gratification, and then we pursue it. At first, it starts with a bump, a sniff, or sip. But before we know it, what began as an attempt at self-medicating ends up in self-destruction.
Let’s make today the day we STOP the hurt and START the journey to healing.
