Are You Or A Loved One Struggling With Substance Use Or Addiction?

  • Do you feel like substance abuse is impacting school or work, impacting relationships, and holding you back from a life you are worthy of?
  • Have you tried to stop or even just cut down on using substances but have so far been unsuccessful long term?

Struggling with substance abuse can feel overwhelming, but true healing is possible with the right support, tools, and when the true root causes of addiction are addressed once and for all. Quantum’s holistic substance use counseling offers a full spectrum, integrative approach that recognizes that substance abuse is at its essence a response to unresolved trauma, emotional pain, and disconnection from self and others. Our highly experienced team of substance abuse therapists are here to support you with what may currently feel like an insurmountable obstacle to your peace and happiness. 

Substance Abuse Counseling is Not “One Size Fits All”

One of the world’s leading experts in trauma and addiction, Dr. Gabor Maté, teaches that substance use is not a conscious choice or a moral failing, but rather an attempt to cope with unprocessed trauma and what is often years of emotional suffering. Our approach to holistic substance abuse therapy focuses on uncovering the underlying internal forces driving the urges to relieve emotional pain through the use of substances and replacing them with new, more sustainable tools to change your relationship with alcohol or other drugs.

The Quantum team is highly adept at educating each client with the latest and most exciting scientific research about the brain and body, and how this relates to underlying mental health, trauma, and substance-related needs. Combining this science-driven approach with the most effective coping strategies makes for a powerful gameplan in helping you get your life back on track to where you want it. 

We understand that your relationship to substance abuse or addiction is totally unique, which is why our holistic approach to addiction therapy is anything but “one size fits all.” Our diverse team of substance use counselors will work with you to create a treatment plan that is individually and uniquely tailored to match your specific strengths and needs.

Your Substance Use Situation Is Not Hopeless

There is no shame in struggling with substance use or addiction, whether it’s regarding cannabis, alcohol, prescription medication, or other drugs. Our team is experienced in working with folks who simply want to cut down on social drug or alcohol use, clients with years of full blown addiction and recovery, and everything in between. You deserve support and relief and our team is devoted to providing the substance abuse treatment that will help get you there and more importantly, feel that the change is lasting and long term. 

At Quantum, our substance abuse counselors offer compassionate, judgment-free support to help you understand the root causes of your addiction. We also incorporate your family or romantic partner in this courageous work if that is something that interests you based on your unique strengths and needs. Through our individually tailored, evidence-based approach, we will elicit your inner wisdom as the expert of your own life in helping you to remember who you are underneath the guilt and shame that so many folks struggling with substance use or addiction experience.

The vast majority of our Quantum clients, approximately 75% in fact, report that past attempts at more traditional exclusively talk therapy have not been successful. It’s easy to fall into shame and self-blame, but what if you simply need a more modern, holistic approach to meet your needs and address the underlying reasons for your substance use?

    Approximately 75% Of Clients Haven’t Found Therapy Helpful Elsewhere

    Many people seeking treatment for substance abuse find that traditional talk therapy alone does not sufficiently address the deeper psychological and physiological factors that contribute to substance abuse and addiction. Our approach integrates a whole host of modalities which target the body and mind to create a more impactful and sustainable recovery journey. For clients who resonate with spiritual principles, we also offer a uniquely tailored approach that can meet your spiritual needs as a welcomed addition to our work together.

    Our team of experienced substance abuse therapists and addiction counselors utilize a variety of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) to identify and change harmful thought patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to improve emotional regulation and stress management, and Somatic Therapy to address dysregulation in the body’s autonomic nervous system. Breathwork, mindfulness, and meditation practices may also be offered to also target the nervous system and promote emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Finally, we incorporate existential counseling strategies to help identify greater purpose and meaning, which we find is an essential pillar in supporting true long term recovery. 

    Trauma-Informed Substance Abuse And Addiction Treatment

    Quantum’s approach is deeply integrative, addressing the root causes of addiction through a trauma-informed and somatic lens as suggested by the latest scientific research. We believe that addiction is not just a behavioral problem but a symptom of unresolved emotional pain and trauma. True healing requires reconnecting with one’s body, emotions, and repairing the damage that substance abuse can cause at home, work, or school. Our experienced drug and alcohol counselors will work closely with you to expand your awareness of the underlying root causes of your addiction and support you in rebuilding the life you once had before alcohol or other drugs took over.
