Addictions or Substance Abuse
Louise Perry
Therapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
With 24 years of recovery from addiction—including drugs, alcohol, and sex and love addiction—I bring a deep, personal understanding of what it means to navigate the challenges of healing and growth. My own journey has been profoundly shaped by the 12-step approach, and this experience underpins the empathy and authenticity I bring to my work as a psychotherapist.
I understand what it’s like to face inner struggles, to confront difficult truths, and to find resilience in the process of recovery. These experiences not only inform my professional practice but also inspire my unwavering commitment to supporting others. Whether you’re grappling with addiction, exploring relationships, or seeking clarity about yourself, I aim to offer a safe, compassionate space for your journey.
I combine this lived experience with my professional training in Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients explore, express, and overcome life’s challenges. Warm-hearted, unshockable, and trustworthy, I am here to walk alongside you as you uncover new possibilities for growth and self-discovery.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Eric van der Voort
Psychologist, PsyD, CST, CSWT
Thinking about changing your drinking or substance use can feel daunting or overwhelming. After all, drinking and using do offer some benefits, such as experiencing pleasure, feeling more social, or perhaps even enhancing your sexual experiences. On the flip side, many people also experience numerous downsides, side effects, or unwanted repercussions when they use. Taking inventory of what you have at stake can be helpful in making a decision about whether or not to change. Those reasons can be especially helpful in moments of distress or temptation.
Exploring what might be underneath your drinking or substance use is crucial. Sometimes painful experiences from your past propel you to find a quick solution to the pain. Alcohol and drugs can be effective at numbing pain, but you may be left with unresolved grief, trauma, anger, shame, or guilt. Treatment requires an integrative approach that addresses both the substance use and your emotional pain.
If you have decided that you’d like to change your drinking or substance use, therapy can help you accomplish your goal. There is no “one size fits all” treatment approach when it comes to treating addiction or substance misuse, so let’s work together to determine what will best help you live the life you want. Give me a call me today to get help reaching your substance use treatment goals.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Alethea Gard'ner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Addictions have a way of starting out as a coping skill or as a fun pastime that can then turn into a new problematic issue negatively impacting not only your life, but those that love you as well. Looking at substances in a new way and developing new positive coping skills to deal with situations can be life changing.

Mary Knoblock
Hypnotherapist, Licensed RTT Practitioner, Clinical Hypnotist, Duke Certified Health Coach, Spiritual Counselor
With the use of RTT and other tools like emotion code and health coaching and hypnosis, I find that clients respond favorably and find their addiction lesson in and their coping skills increasing to deal with addictions/substance abuse etc.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Tanya Desloover
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CADCII
My background of 20 years spent as therapist and Clinical Director of a southern CA program, and in private practice, treating clients and their families with substance use disorders, has informed my practice to help others address, not only that issue, but the underlying disorders that accompany substance use (codependency, anxiety, depression, transitions). I admire your courage to face your fears, and offer a nonjudgmental, secure holding place to heal. As an EMDR therapist, my perspective is helping clients get past their limiting beliefs, negative thoughts and feelings about themselves that contribute to ongoing use of substances to manage stressors. We will work together to support you becoming empowered to courageously face your challenges.
