Drug & Alcohol Counseling
Deciding to begin treatment for a substance use issue is a big, commendable step. Recognizing you would like to make a change is where it all begins. The right support can make all the difference as you begin your journey. It is more convenient than ever to begin counseling, right from the comfort of your own home.
Through counseling, you can explore some of the reasons why you use substances to cope as well as learning more about how addiction affects the brain, along with gaining essential skills to use on your recovery journey.

Outpatient substance use counseling is ideal for folks who have mild-moderate substance use disorders or who have just completed an intensive outpatient program (IOP) or partial hospitalization program (PHP).
Continuing care is important when completing any intensive program, as many will benefit from continued support to help maintain gains made in treatment.
Guided Roots Counseling uses a secure HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform to conduct sessions. You must have a phone / tablet / computer with a working microphone and camera along with a decent internet connection and a private location for virtual sessions.
