Whether it is depression or anxiety from a life transition/event or past/present trauma, reaching out for support is essential. My motto is simple but true- Be heard. Feel better.

Are you a teen or young adult feeling exhausted from emotions such as anger, anxiety, or depression? Are substance-related issues or behavioral needs complicating social or family relationships? Are the pressures during this young adult transitional period simply causing you to feel overwhelmed and uncertain of your next steps? Are you feeling stuck around school and feeling misunderstood by others in your life? I can vividly recall the very human “stuckness” I experienced during that period in my own life. In fact, it's what inspired me to become a therapist who specializes in supporting teens and young adults as I do today.

I’m Amanda, and I help perfectionistic, depressed, and highly sensitive people identify their values and heal people pleasing tendencies in order to live a life of alignment. You're frustrated by doing everything you "should" be doing, and realizing those feelings of happiness you were told would come along with this chapter in your life are nowhere to be found. You've gone to school, established a career, perhaps even started a family. You're depleted, and wondering how you can feel so bad when you've done it all right. You might know how you could be happier, but fear of judgment from others keeps you stuck in monotony.

Alcohol Use Therapists

Are there specific medications for alcohol use?

There are oral medications approved to treat alcohol use disorder—such as disulfiram, acamprosate, and naltrexone, which also comes in an injectable form. These medications do help people reduce their drinking as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone helps reduce cravings, disulfiram can make a person feel sick when they drink, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.

How do alcohol recovery or rehabilitation programs work?

In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other patients in recovery; in outpatient programs,individuals live at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff can also include people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other tools for recovery.

How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?

Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.

How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for alcohol use reduce the amount of alcohol they intake. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.
