Many people feel like depression, anxiety, and substance use are things that we should be able to control. Like it’s a light switch that we can just flip on and off. This is not the case for most of us. When you have a mental health or substance abuse problem it is not that easy to just feel better. Sometimes life is overwhelming and we can’t manage it on our own. You are in the right place if you are exhausted from having tried over and over again to be happy, but continue to fall short. It is time to reach out for help. You deserve it!

Therapy for Substance Abuse, Anxiety, Trauma, and More.

Counseling is a very effective way to treat mental health and substance abuse problems. Some benefits you will get from therapy with me include:

  • Exploration of values, meaning, and purpose
  • Growth and change towards a more fulfilling life
  • Feeling less overwhelmed by learning healthy ways to cope with lifes' challenges
  • Insight into “who you are” and how past relationships impact you in the present
  • Identification of unhealthy patterns and how to change them
  • Reduction of the emotional and physical impact of traumatic experiences
  • Improvement in symptoms of depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and other mental health issues
  • Learning how to live life without or with less dependence on drugs and alcohol
  • Learning how to achieve long-term recovery from drugs and alcohol

I am the right therapist for you if:

  • You want to reduce or stop using alcohol or drugs
  • You are in recovery from a substance use disorder
  • You are experiencing anxiety that you are not able to control
  • You have been suffering from depression that just will not go away
  • You would like to use EMDR to treat PTSD or current symptoms of a traumatic experience
  • You need to get counseling by telehealth/online so that you don’t have to leave your home

Meet Your Therapist Megan Stanton

Through my own personal journey with substance use and mental health, I have learned how important it is to have support. After struggling for too long, I sought out professional help. My therapist helped me to see things that I wasn’t able to see in myself. I consistently showed up and put in the work. That process completely changed my life. I learned how to have control over my life and choose what it would look like. From then on, therapy became a regular, necessary part of my self-care. The transformation I have gone through inspires me to help others. Everyone deserves compassion and the opportunity to heal.
