Our Programs & Services
While drug and alcohol addictions often need to be treated at an inpatient clinic, many addictions can be treated by working closely with a mental health counselor or dietician in an outpatient setting. Our counselors are trained to help you overcome these addictions.
- Talk therapy to determine root cause driving the addiction.
- Holding you accountable to your daily choices.
- Providing you with the resources you need to make better decisions.
- Working with family members as needed if they have been impacted by the addiction.
Finding the best addiction Counselor
While searching out a counselor to help you with this process, you should start with someone you feel comfortable with. In addition, the best counselors will hold you to a high standard of accountability and commitment while also understanding that you are an imperfect human who is bound to struggle sometimes. They will be your partner and friend and cheer you on as you achieve milestones and successes.
Accountability
When struggling with various addictions it is necessary to have accountability for your time and actions. In addictions treatment sometimes, you are embarrassed discussing these issues with people you know. By working with a counselor well versed in addictions you will have someone here, for you. When you are dealing with addictions it can also be helpful for you to enlist the help of family members and friends who are willing to support you through this process.
Addictions We Treat
While there are many types of addictions, they can all be categorized as substance or process. A substance addiction is one in which your body needs the external chemical (alcohol, drugs, etc.) to function. A process addiction is one that gives you a sense of pleasure (gaming, pornography, gambling, etc.) without ingesting any substances. At Winter Garden Wellness we use many methods to help you change your daily routines to manage and overcome your addictions. Some of the most common addictions we treat are:
- Drugs (outpatient talk therapy not medical treatment)
- Alcohol (outpatient talk therapy not medical treatment)
- Internet
- Sex
- Pornography
- Food (talk therapy and nutritional counseling)
- Gambling
- Smartphones
- Shopping
- Social Media
- Gaming
Frequently Asked Questions
We’ll Answer
As defined by the American Society of Addiction Medicine, Addiction is a treatable, chronic medical disease involving complex interactions among brain circuits, genetics, the environment, and an individual’s life experiences. People with addiction use substances or engage in behaviors that become compulsive and often continue despite harmful consequences.
To receive treatment at an inpatient rehab for drug or alcohol addiction you will often pay a package price that ranges from $30,000 to $50,000 per month. These programs can include detoxing, health and diet changes, individual talk therapy and group therapy.
For all other types of addictions, counseling done in a private practice setting, you pay a per session rate to meet with a counselor one to three times per week. These visits range from $100-$200 per visit and are determined be location and type of therapist providing the counseling.
Often we don’t think that we have an addiction, instead, we think we have just found something that we enjoy. If you need help determining whether you have a healthy interest in an activity or unhealthy addiction you need to start by asking yourself these questions.
- Does the thing I enjoy doing cause problems in my relationships with my spouse, partner, children, family, friends, or colleagues?
- Is my interest causing me difficulty with my finances?
- Does the activity I like to do come with any negative consequences?
- If I am kept from the activity, do I become anxious, restless, irritable?
- Do I feel the need to hide or be secretive?
- Do I feel like I just need a little more time, or can’t get enough?
- Can I stop doing my activity at any moment without distress?

I highly recommend Bryan for individual and couples therapy. He always made me feel comfortable and I felt like I could be myself which is super important when going to counseling.
Samantha’s massages always relieve my shoulder pain and IT band tension. She targets problem areas and has greatly improved my mobility. Thank you, Sam – you’re amazing!
I met with Bryan for about 8 months. I began meeting with him individually (for about 5 months) and for the final 3 months, my partner and I went together. We cannot be any more emphatic when we say that our experience with Bryan was wonderful.
Bryan demonstrates a superb level of care and commitment to his clients. He fosters an environment of openness, honesty, and acceptance that allows clients to confront their flaws and limitations in order to heal and make changes for the better. It is clear that Bryan is in this profession for all the right reasons and is gifted as a counselor. I would strongly recommend him to anyone.
Thank you Bryan!
To put it simply Bryan is a superstar! Yes, he is an excellent therapist…I have several family members and friends who have been referred to him, and he is absolutely wonderful. He has and uses a Christian foundation with his counseling and has a calm, pleasant demeanor that puts his patients at ease. He is insightful with his approach to therapy and I would recommend him to any colleague, friend, or patient without reservation.
I started working with Bryan 7 months prior to writing this review. I went alone in hopes that he could help with some relationship issues I was unable to solve on my own. Bryan has been nothing short of a miracle in my life. My story is still being written, but I look forward to my appointments with him. He is calm, kind-hearted, and genuinely wants me to succeed. He looks at every angle and gives guidance/suggestions that only betters my situation. Bryan is extremely intelligent and knows how to help people. Better than that he enjoys helping people. I will continue to refer him to anyone and everyone. True companionate people are not just hard to find but he does with the intent of actually building his patients up. I can not say enough great things about him, and strongly recommend him to anyone in need.
My husband and I met with Bryan for about 5 months. The time and money we spent were without a doubt, one of the very best investments we have made for our marriage. The care and commitment with which Bryan treats his clients are outstanding. He patiently, kindly, and honestly helps clients understand situations or wounds with clarity to which he offers sound and concrete steps towards healing. Bryan helped my husband and I to grow as individuals as well as together as a couple, and our marriage was strengthened tremendously.
After our marriage counseling concluded, I continued to meet with Bryan individually for about 3 months. Bryan helped me to understand my need for a better relationship with God which sent me on a journey that completely changed my life. I continue to live with the same struggles (from an incurable medical issue) yet I no longer suffer from the debilitating depression it used to cause me. I will never be able to adequately thank Bryan for the gift his counseling gave me and my marriage.
I would highly recommend Bryan to anyone.
Thank you, Bryan!
