Substance use counseling in Arvada, CO
SUBSTANCE USE SUPPORT FOR BEHAVIOR CHANGE
If you’re questioning your relationship with alcohol, marijuana or other substances, that’s often the first sign something needs attention.
You might be:
drinking or smoking more than you want to
using substances to cope with stress
trying to cut back but struggling
wondering if your habits are becoming a problem
I provide substance use and addiction counseling support in Colorado focused on helping you change patterns and build healthier ways of coping.
It’s not just about the behavior.
Substance use is often connected to:
stress and overwhelm
emotional avoidance
habit patterns
disconnection
If you only focus on stopping, without understanding the why, change can be hard to sustain. We’ll look at what’s actually happening and build a plan that works for you - whether that means cutting out, cutting back or changing patterns.
What we work on in substance use therapy
Understand your substance use patterns → Looking at when, where and how you use.
Identify triggers → Recognizing emotional and situational factors driving the behavior.
Address underlying emotion → Working with needs, fears and vulnerabilities that may be contributing to use.
Create behavior change → Developing realistic strategies to reduce or change use.
