Finding the Right Addictions/Recovery Therapist

Whether you are wondering if you drink, use a substance, or gamble at a "problem" level (or maybe someone else is on you about it), it is important to explore this issue with a trained and supportive therapist with expertise in these areas. Look for someone who will not judge you, but who will listen to the concerns YOU have. Ask questions: How many years of experience do you have in  treating substance use?; What is your specific training? You deserve the best help.
