Colleen O'Shea, MA, CFAS, CAADC

Beyond the fear is freedom. Do you struggle with drug or alcohol abuse and/or depression or anxiety? Do you want someone who can help guide you along the path to recovery? For over 22 years, I have helped individuals find healing and understanding when they have become overwhelmed with life problems. Do you drink or use drugs to numb or escape emotional pain? Do you struggle with feeling sad, anxious, alone, or like no one understands you? You don't have to face your issues alone. I can understand what you are dealing with.

My approach is diverse and individualized. I work with adolescents and adults. I am a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I have special interest and experience working with clients with various issues including substance use, depression, anxiety, stress, anger management, trauma, and relationship and family issues. I also have considerable experience working with individuals with forensic issues.

Thoughts about contacting a therapist could raise a lot of fear and apprehension. You don't know what to expect. My clients tell that I have a great ability to make them feel comfortable and able to share things they have never shared with others. I hope that you will take a moment to contact me and see how I can help. I look forward to helping you.

I enjoy helping people cope with life stressors. It makes me happy to see people living a healthier and happier lifestyle.
