Substance use can feel isolating, but recovery doesn’t have to be. Whether you’re just beginning to explore sobriety or have years of recovery behind you, therapy can be a powerful ally on your path to healing.

At Anchor Health, we offer compassionate, judgment-free support for people navigating addiction and recovery. Our approach is rooted in understanding, not shame.

Understanding Substance Use as a Mental Health Issue

Addiction is often intertwined with trauma, anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges. That’s why we see substance use through a trauma-informed lens—acknowledging the deeper emotional pain that may be driving the behavior.

Therapy helps uncover and address these root causes. It’s not about labeling or blaming, but about creating space for healing, growth, and self-compassion.

How Therapy Supports Recovery at Every Stage

Whether you’re considering sobriety, newly in recovery, or working to maintain long-term wellness, therapy can provide:

  • A safe place to process emotions and setbacks
  • Tools for managing triggers and cravings
  • Support for repairing relationships
  • Guidance on building a fulfilling life in recovery

We work with individuals who are navigating recovery independently or alongside 12-step programs, outpatient treatment, or medication-assisted recovery.

What Makes Anchor Health’s Approach Different

At Anchor Health, we tailor therapy to your unique journey. Our clinicians are experienced in working with substance use and bring a client-centered, nonjudgmental approach to every session.

We focus on building trust and connection, helping you feel safe to share and grow. Our therapists may draw on modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), or mindfulness-based approaches to support recovery goals.
