Substance use counseling at Awaken Counseling offers compassionate, nonjudgmental support for individuals navigating their relationship with alcohol or other substances. Whether you’re questioning your use, feeling stuck in patterns you want to change, or working toward recovery, our therapists meet you where you are. We understand that substance use is often connected to stress, trauma, mental health, and life circumstances—and we approach your care with curiosity, respect, and a focus on your unique goals.

Ebonie Henderson, LCSW, and Dr. Maria Williams, PhD, LPC, LMHC, bring extensive experience supporting teens and adults with substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns. They use evidence-based approaches to help you better understand your patterns, build practical coping skills, and address underlying issues such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. We offer comprehensive assessments to support accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning when needed.

Our work is collaborative and tailored to you—whether your goal is harm reduction, moderation, or abstinence. We focus on helping you build insight, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful, sustainable change. At Awaken Counseling, you’ll find a supportive space to explore what’s working, what’s not, and how to move forward in a way that aligns with your values and the life you want to build.
