Is "Drug & Alcohol" Counseling Just For Those in active use? Nope!

At Mind The Gap, we understand that addiction doesn’t just affect the person using substances—it impacts families, relationships, and individuals in many profound ways. Our drug and alcohol counseling services are designed to support not only those in active use but also those whose lives have been deeply affected by substance abuse.

​

Who Can Benefit from Drug and Alcohol Counseling?

• Individuals in Active Use: If you’re currently struggling with substance use, our counseling services can help you address the root causes of your addiction, develop healthier coping strategies, and create a clear path to recovery. Through a combination of evidence-based therapies, we work collaboratively with you to help you regain control and move toward a life free from substance dependency.

• Adult Children of Addicts: Growing up in a home affected by addiction can leave lasting emotional and psychological scars. Whether your parent is still using substances or has been in recovery for years, the impact can shape your beliefs, relationships, and emotional well-being. Our counseling provides a safe space to process your feelings, break unhealthy patterns, and develop a more positive sense of self.

• Children in Families Affected by Substance Use: Children in households where addiction is present often experience confusion, fear, and neglect. Counseling can help children understand their emotions and build the skills to cope with the uncertainty and stress that addiction can bring. Our therapists work with both children and families to heal, strengthen relationships, and restore a sense of safety and trust.

• People Who Have Lost Loved Ones to Addiction: Losing a loved one to addiction can leave you with feelings of grief, guilt, anger, and confusion. Our services support you through the process of mourning, healing, and finding peace, helping you navigate the complex emotions tied to loss and addiction.

• Family Members of Those Actively Using: If you have a family member who is actively using substances, it can be heartbreaking and challenging. Our counseling provides guidance on how to set healthy boundaries, offer support without enabling, and take care of your own emotional health while navigating the ups and downs of having a loved one in active use.
