Breaking Free from Addiction's Grip

Addiction isn't just a habit - it's an avoidance of your present reality. It promises escape but delivers imprisonment. Whether substance-based, sexual, or behavioral, addiction disconnects you from your authentic experience, creating a cycle of temporary relief and deepening suffering.

A Direct Path to Freedom

Gestalt Therapy for Addiction

Instead of just managing symptoms, we work with what's actually happening right now:

  • Face your present reality without flinching
  • Discover what you're really avoiding
  • Build authentic awareness of your patterns
  • Develop real contact with yourself and others
  • Transform avoidance into conscious choice

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT complements our Gestalt work by helping you:

  • Accept what is while working toward change
  • Clarify and commit to your core values
  • Take action even when it's uncomfortable
  • Build psychological flexibility

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

IFS helps us understand and heal the parts of you that:

  • Turn to addiction for relief
  • Try to protect you from pain
  • Hold trauma and need healing
  • Can become allies in recovery

The Truth About Recovery

Real change requires:

  • Courage to face what is, not what should be
  • Willingness to feel uncomfortable
  • Commitment to showing up fully
  • Engagement with the present moment
  • Support from a skilled guide
