Here is where Recovery is possible. It isn't easy. With help and a desire to change, people do recover from addictions. :)

If you are having difficulties with an addiction or feel that your alcohol or drug use is getting out of control, please contact us and schedule an appointment for an assessment with a certified counselor. We can work with you to determine the necessary steps for your recovery.

Take a gradual approach to recovery. Rather than expecting change to happen quickly, look for support and knowledge to successfully recover.

How do you begin recovery? Start thinking about the 3 risk factors for dependency:

1. Biological - Nature and nurture are responsible for one's development of an addiction.
2. Psychological - take care of other illnesses such as depression that perpetuate the cycle of addiction.
3. Social - seek an environment and friends that are conducive to sobriety.

Also, recognize that tolerance accompanies addictions. It is defined as an increase in the use of the substance or repetition of the behavior to obtain the same effect.
