When you’re in a battle with addiction, you feel like you have no control of your emotions or your urges to use the desired substance.

Whether it’s drinking, food, drugs, sex, gambling, the internet or anything else, many people struggle to moderate their behavior.

We are here to support you every step of the way.

Symptoms of Addiction: Am I Addicted?

People can experience addiction in different ways, but there are some common symptoms that addicts report:

  • Powerlessness. You feel beat and broken. You’ve tried and tried to give it up but you can’t.
  • Dishonesty. You’ve started to lie to people about your addiction, denying it, or saying that you’re doing something else when you’re really indulging in the substance of choice.
  • Disinterest in important areas of life. Your home life is suffering. Your relationships are suffering. But you don’t really care anymore.

These factors are classic signs of a problem with an addiction. If you see yourself dealing with one or more of these, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Someone who understands

★★★★★
In these tense and uncertain times, it’s really helpful to be able to talk to someone who I know shares similar experiences, can understand where I’m coming from, and can help me understand how to do the best I can to improve myself in my circumstances. Tia is a great listener with a gentle, calming demeanor. She knows how to laugh and how to really listen. She’s really helped me through some tough times and encouraged me throughout. Don’t know what I’d do without her!

Sandy has been very helpful

★★★★★
As first-generation immigrants we have a touch time raising kids in US. Being caught between two different cultures, our teenager daughter intuitively rejects parents' culture and is often unrespectful toward parents and her sibling. But we as parents have no relatives in US for counseling. Talking to Sandra has been very helpful as she instructed us how to communicate with our confused teenager, how to guide her through the difficult time. Thank you, Sandy!
