PTSD & Trauma
Do you have difficulty recovering after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event? The condition may last months or years, with triggers that can bring back memories of the trauma accompanied by intense emotional and physical reactions. Symptoms may include nightmares or unwanted memories of the trauma, avoidance of situations that bring back memories of the trauma, heightened reactions, anxiety, or depressed mood.
Depression & Mood Disorder
Do you constantly feel sadness and loss of interest, which stops you from doing normal daily activities? These are symptoms of depression. A mood disorder is a type of mental health condition where there is a disconnect between actual life circumstances and the person’s state of mind or feeling.

Substance Abuse Counseling
Substance abuse counseling helps individuals overcome addiction by providing emotional support and equipping them with coping skills to manage triggers and build a foundation for recovery. A counselor helps clients address the underlying mental health or social problems often linked to substance use, guiding them toward a balanced life through various therapeutic techniques, supportive groups, and potentially medication, with the goal to foster lasting sobriety and improved well-being.
Relapse Preventation
Relapse prevention counseling is a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) approach designed to help people maintain positive changes and prevent relapses, particularly in substance use disorders and other behavioral changes. It involves identifying personal triggers (internal or external factors that might lead to relapse), developing healthy coping skills to manage high-risk situations, and building self-awareness to better regulate emotions and behaviors. The goal is to empower individuals with the skills and confidence to navigate challenges, thereby reducing the risk of falling back into old habits and supporting long-term recovery.
