Thomas Schaefer believes that lasting change is a journey rather than a mere event. He welcomes individuals who seek to establish sobriety, address relapses, or those who have maintained sobriety yet wish to delve into underlying issues. Thomas understands that substance use often reflects deeper struggles, with many individuals using it as a means of self-medication. He specializes in co-occurring disorders such as Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety, and Trauma, drawing from over twenty years of personal and professional experience in addiction recovery. He recognizes that a one-size-fits-all approach to substance use treatment is insufficient. Therefore, Thomas utilizes a diverse array of therapeutic techniques, including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused therapy. He believes it is crucial to address the underlying causes and conditions of addiction, just as one would manage diabetes by considering diet and lifestyle. In his practice, Thomas encourages individuals to embrace life's challenges with support and passion, and he also offers guidance to family members of those facing addiction. He prioritizes confidentiality and has transitioned to electronic medical records for enhanced privacy.
