Medication Management
Specialties & focus areas
Recovery focus
Evidence-based approaches
Group therapy
Group Therapy. A small facilitated circle where people working on similar struggles practice naming what is hard, hearing themselves in others, and learning skills together. The room is the medicine.
Trauma-informed care
Trauma-Informed Care. Approaches addiction as something layered on top of unprocessed trauma, not in isolation. Pacing matters more than confrontation.
SMART recovery
SMART Recovery. Self-management and recovery training built on cognitive science. A secular alternative or complement to twelve-step work.
Art therapy
Art Therapy. Uses visual art-making as a structured way to access feelings that words have not yet caught up with. Often runs alongside talk therapy, not in place of it.
