I have been specializing in addiction counseling for over a decade and use different treatment modalities to assist people in moving into their truest selves, lives without addiction, whole and balanced. Addiction is a word that makes people move into denial very easily. There is more addiction in our society than most are willing or ready to deal with. There are common addictions that society sees very clearly such as alcohol and drug dependencies and then there are the others such as gambling , shopping and food that are the behavioral addictions that we see. The addictions that many are unaware of are the sensation addictions and those are addictions such as love, work, control, obsessive thinking and even suffering, just to name a few. Addiction is something that one does that causes some kind of negative consequence to their life and that can be as covert as complaining and obsessing over not getting enough attention from your partner. Addiction is about internal energy and the imbalance of that energy, energy work is part of what I assist people with to get beneath the addictive tendencies and see what is being avoided with addiction.
