Counseling for Addiction

If you continue to use substances or engage in problematic behavior despite negative consequences you may benefit from addictions  counseling services in Fairfax, Vienna, and Sterling, VA. The goal of this counseling is typically to first help you to safely stop the behavior. Sometimes treatments include medication assisted therapy (MAT) including anti-craving medication and/or Suboxone, provided by our Addiction Psychiatrists. Medications may be used along with traditional talk therapy using Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral strategies to help identify and understand the underlying cause of the behavior and to teach effective Relapse Prevention and coping skills to lower the likelihood of a recurrence of the behavior. 

The process begins with an assessment and diagnosis offered by a licensed psychotherapist who is also certified in Addictions, and so, is able to treat mental health and addiction issues concurrently. Our addiction counseling services in Fairfax, Vienna, and Sterling, VA are generally accepted for persons involved in the Criminal Justice System and ASAP. 

 We utilize both abstinence-based and risk reduction models and encourage engaging with community-based recovery support. Please take the first step today and call to schedule an evaluation to begin your path to a life worth living free of addictive behavior.
