01 · WHAT WE HELP WITH
Substance and Behavioral Addictions
Addiction isn’t a character flaw. It is a pattern the brain learns: something brings relief or reward, and over time it takes more of it, and more of your life, to get the same effect. Counseling looks at what that pattern is doing for you and helps you meet those needs another way.
People come in for help with drinking that has crept up, prescription or recreational drug use, smoking and vaping, gambling and sports betting, gaming, pornography, and compulsive spending, as well as the anxiety, depression, or past trauma that often sits underneath.
02 · IS IT TIME?
Signs Addiction Counseling Could Help
- You’ve tried to cut back or stop and keep ending up in the same place
- You need more of it to get the same feeling, or you feel restless and irritable without it
- It’s causing problems at work, with money, or with the people you love
- You hide how much or how often, or feel ashamed afterward
- It has become your main way to cope with stress, pain, or difficult memories
- Someone you care about has asked you to get help, or you’re worried about a loved one
You don’t have to hit “rock bottom” first. The earlier you reach out, the more options you have.
03 · OUR APPROACH
How Addiction Counseling Works
Understanding the “why.” We look at the triggers, emotions, and situations that drive the habit, and at what it has been helping you avoid or manage.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT helps you catch the thoughts that lead to using and build practical skills for cravings, stress, and high-risk moments.
Clinical hypnotherapy. Jaye is a Certified Master Clinical Hypnotherapist. Hypnotherapy can help reduce cravings, calm the stress response, and strengthen the part of you that wants change. It is always used alongside counseling. Read more in Hypnotherapy and Addiction Recovery.
Relapse prevention. Together you’ll build a plan for warning signs, tough days, and what to do if you slip, so a setback doesn’t turn into starting over.
04 · YOU’RE NOT THE ONLY ONE AFFECTED
Support for Families and Partners
Addiction affects everyone close to it. Partners and parents often carry worry, anger, and exhaustion, and may slip into patterns of covering for or rescuing their loved one. Counseling can help you set healthy boundaries, communicate without constant conflict, and take care of yourself, whether or not your loved one is ready for help. Family therapy and couples therapy are also available.
05 · SAFETY FIRST
When You Need Medical Care, Too
Stopping alcohol, benzodiazepines, or opioids suddenly can be medically dangerous. If you drink heavily or use daily, please talk with your doctor about safe detox before you quit. Outpatient counseling works best alongside medical care when it’s needed, and if you need a higher level of care, such as detox or an intensive program, Jaye will help you find the right referral.
