Welcome to Full Spectrum Recovery and Counseling Services

If you or your loved one needs help with drug, alcohol or other problems, we're glad you found Full Spectrum Recovery and Counseling Services. When you are ready, it is important to choose a treatment program that works! The team of therapists available at Full Spectrum Recovery and Counseling Services is made up of some of the finest treatment professionals in the field. In fact, one of the reasons why our clients are so successful is the extremely high level of care that each therapist provides.

Full Spectrum Recovery Therapists are committed to providing respectful, individualized, and confidential treatment to clients and their loved ones. We believe that all people seeking change have the right to achieve recovery in an atmosphere of safety, dignity and empowerment.

Regarding substance abuse, we know that it's an individual problem and that's why we offer individual solutions. Our expert therapists do not agree with the common notion that there is a 'one size fits all' treatment. We treat each client as an individual. No one treatment is appropriate for everyone. We believe that our clients are motivated to work on a goal that they themselves choose. Respectfully, we offer a menu of treatment options from moderation to abstinence to provide both choice and incentive. If it appears our client's initial goals cannot be met, we support rapid movement towards a more appropriate goal that reduces harm.

Additionally, we know alcohol and drug problems are triggered by anxiety, depression and trauma. Our experts believe that the best and most effective way to tackle substance abuse and these underlying problems is through one-on-one therapy. When you sit down with a private therapist who is an expert in the field, with nobody else in the room, you can really start to do the individual healing work. There is nothing in the world that compares to cutting-edge, sophisticated, one-on-one therapy.

We know that those seeking help through this website are struggling with or have a loved one who is struggling with substance abuse and other personal problems. And don't we all know how very successful, affluent and productive we can appear to the outside world when we're hurting. Sadly, we all realize that substance abuse problems do not discriminate, but take hope! It is not necessary to 'hit bottom' and lose everything before you seek help. Many of our clients are physicians, attorneys, business people, athletes, celebrities and other high profile and high functioning individuals. It takes a tremendous amount of courage to admit there is a problem and then to reach out to ask for help.

Thank you for visiting our website. You took a powerful first step .

If you or a loved one is ready to end the suffering and begin the healing, please call one of our caring therapists 7 days a week @ (805)966.5100.
