Individual Addiction Treatment

Are you struggling with addiction but rehab isn’t right for you? I will create a personalized plan to help you achieve freedom from addiction.

I offer individual treatment programs because most of us don’t open up about our issues in groups. In order to get free from addiction you must deal with the underlying issues.

By focusing on your story, your issues, and your life, we make great progress without spending hours in groups several nights a week which takes you away from your life’s commitments. Dive in and learn how to be freed from the prison of addiction with an individualized plan just for you.

You will get the same education on addiction that other treatment programs provide such as:
  • The disease of addiction
  • Neurobiology of addiction
  • 12-step program modalities & Biblical Recovery
  • Identifying and dealing with triggers
  • Relapse prevention
And much more such as:
  • Emotion Intelligence
  • Communication skills
  • Boundaries
  • Creating a joy-filled life in recovery
  • Handling stress
  • Healing from past wounds
  • Dealing with shame and guilt
  • Repairing hurt in the family
  • Handling mistrust and pain of the past while also moving forward.
  • Road to Recovery Addiction treatment

    If other treatment programs haven’t worked & you really want to get well, I encourage you to try my program.

    My Work with Family Members

    Addiction hurts the alcoholic/addict AND their families. That’s why I also work with the family members.

    Loved-ones often feel confused about what actually helps and what hurts when dealing with their addicted family member. You deserve guidance and wisdom too! This is an extremely challenging journey and your hurt, anger and fear are real. Get answers to your questions, guidance on what to do in varying situations, learn how to deal with all your feelings, and get resources to help you through this.

    This is not just a job for me. I’m not a big institution where you are simply a number. I care deeply about people getting free from the prison of addiction. I care about families being restored and children having both parents in their lives.

    My communication style is direct yet loving–I speak truth in love. I want you to be free from addiction which means facing things that have held you back from living the life you want. I will address issues I see directly with you and focus on solutions. I am all in for those who really want to get well. Your addiction didn’t happen overnight so it’s not going to go away overnight.

    I am also a Christ follower and include Biblical recovery in my program because the 12 steps originated in the Bible. I am not here to push my faith on you or demand anything from you. Your journey is your journey. However, if you are vehemently opposed to Christianity, I am likely not a good choice for you.

    Take it from me, the worst day in sobriety is far better than your best day drinking.

    I do not accept insurance. Your information will never be included on any medical record that follows you throughout life. I have experienced the negative side of having addiction on my medical record. I have been denied life insurance and then charged excessively simply because my medical record shows my addiction.

    You can get help without sharing your information with anyone.

    Partial Scholarships:  Stepping Ahead Ltd is a non-profit 501c3 serving those desiring freedom from addiction. Many people are not able to get the one-on-one help they need because of finances so donors make it possible for those who qualify to get partial assistance. Limited funds are available because they are based on donations. Full scholarships are not available.

    I am doing in-person meetings but video or phone meetings are also available.
