Addiction Therapy in osseo, mn and online in minnesota
Recovery begins when you understand what you’re trying to numb.
You find yourself…
Relying on alcohol, substances, or other habits (work, food, scrolling) to cope, even though you promised yourself you’d cut back or stop. Addiction isn’t about weakness; it’s about trying to soothe pain, numb stress, or feel in control. Over time, it can take over and leave you feeling stuck, ashamed, or alone.

Substance Use FAQs
-
Therapies that work with the nervous system and underlying trauma are the most effective. I use ART, somatic therapy, and IFS to help clients understand the function of their addictive patterns—whether it's numbing, coping, or managing emotional overload. Instead of focusing only on stopping the behavior, we heal the root so the urge loses its power. This is especially effective for high-functioning adults struggling with alcohol, cannabis, compulsive behaviors, or emotional addictions like people-pleasing.
-
You might have an addiction if you:
Use a substance or behavior to cope with stress, anxiety, or emotions
Have difficulty cutting back even if you want to
Hide or minimize your use
Feel shame or regret afterward
Experience cravings or rely on the behavior to function
Notice the behavior affecting your relationships, sleep, mood, or work
You do not need to meet a checklist of symptoms to benefit from addiction therapy.
-
ART helps by reprocessing the core memories, beliefs, and emotional pain fueling the addiction. Many clients experience fewer cravings, less shame, and a stronger sense of internal safety after 1–3 ART intensive sessions. It’s fast, gentle, and doesn’t require retelling every detail of your past.
