Addiction counseling.

Compulsions and substances promise relief and take far more than they give. Loosening their grip is possible, without shame, and at your pace.

What it is

Loosen the grip, restore the calm.

Addiction counseling at Heart Mind Method helps you ease the obsessions, cravings and compulsions that resist willpower alone, from checking habits to substance dependency.

We work with the patterns underneath the behavior, not just the behavior itself, so change reaches deeper and lasts longer. Clinical hypnotherapy can support this work where it fits.

In person in Downers Grove, Illinois, or by secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth anywhere in the state.
