Addiction Counseling in Michigan
Find Your Strength
Addiction doesn’t always look like people imagine. It’s not always rock bottom — sometimes it’s quieter: cravings that won’t go away, repeated promises to stop, or a growing sense that something feels out of balance.
At Rising Recovery PLC, addiction counseling is provided within a psychotherapy framework, helping you understand the emotional, relational, and psychological patterns beneath substance use. Our goal is not just change in behavior, but deeper, more sustainable change in how you relate to yourself and others.

How Addiction Develops
Substance use often begins as a way to cope — to unwind, manage stress, soothe emotional pain, or escape overwhelming feelings. Over time, what once felt like a choice can begin to feel necessary.
Cravings may intensify. Daily routines shift. Quitting alone can feel exhausting or discouraging.
Addiction also commonly overlaps with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship distress. That’s why effective treatment must address the whole person, not just the substance.
When Addiction Counseling May Help
You may benefit from therapy if you find yourself:
​
-
Using substances more often or feeling compelled to use
-
Experiencing strong cravings or difficulty stopping
-
Needing more to achieve the same effect
-
Feeling emotionally disconnected, numb, or overwhelmed
-
Repeatedly trying to change without lasting success
-
Carrying shame, guilt, or frustration about your use
Our Approach
At Rising Recovery PLC, addiction counseling is individualized psychotherapy, not a program or one-size-fits-all solution.
We work collaboratively and without judgment, helping you explore the emotional and relational roots of substance use while building safer, more effective ways of coping and connecting.
Our therapists integrate approaches such as:
-
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to address emotional patterns and attachment needs
-
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and DBT-informed skills to support regulation and change
-
Relapse prevention strategies tailored to your goals and values
Recovery, in our view, means more than abstinence. It’s about building a life that feels meaningful, stable, and aligned with who you want to be.
