Compassionate Counseling Services

Do you have a loved one who is struggling with an addiction? Do you have a hard time saying NO – and sticking to it? Do you feel constantly taken advantage of, or taken for granted, as if nothing you do is ever good enough? Dealing with a loved one’s addiction is a very difficult thing. You may be feeling stuck in your current situation, and wondering if things will always be the way it is now. Or you may be feeling completely over-extended, taking care of everything (and everyone) both at work and at home, that you just don’t have any time or energy left to take care of yourself. You may even be feeling completely isolated and alone, because no one seems to understand what you are going through, and there is no one in your life that you feel comfortable talking to about it. It can really take a toll on you when you love someone who is struggling with an addiction. You do not have to go through this alone. I can help you look at the “big picture” of what you really want for your life — and for your loved ones. I do this by first helping you to increase your awareness of the circumstances of your current life situation, in order to understand how things got to be this way. Together, we will then explore several possible options that you may not have considered before, which can ultimately empower you to make the positive changes that you have been looking for. I also work with individuals, couples, families, and teens. Please call me at 949-678-9530 or e-mail me at ceci@ceciaddams.com to see how I can help. I look forward to hearing from you!
