Family & Addiction Counseling – Advanced Holistic Mental Health Care

Our Focus

ADULTS

We help adults regain control, reduce stress, and create changes that result in long term stability and health. We invite family members to participate in counseling towards the goal of supporting their loved one. If you suffer from anxiety, depression, or relationship issues, call us today.

Adolescence is a challenging but developmentally critical period in a child’s life. We offer comprehensive teen counseling that supports physical, mental, and academic success while building pro-social supports and life-skills. Our approach is multi-systemic and we work with every aspect of a child’s life.

Addiction

We provide private individualized outpatient treatment for substance use disorders. Addiction is treated utilizing a harm reduction approach that supports client progress at every level. Therapy is provided one-to-one or with supportive family present to optimize accountability, client comfort, and goal achievement.

Education

We collaborate with schools and community groups to provide training and strategies around teens, behavior, drugs, and addiction. We recommend a reality-based educational approach which empowers families while providing life saving knowledge and options that reduce substance abuse.

Our Mission Statement

One small step today can change the course of a family's life forever!

We specialize in helping individuals and families with substance use disorders and parents with behaviorally challenging teens.

We believe that active addiction is not a barrier to care and that anyone can improve with therapy at any time. Participation is always a beneficial step.

We practice a complete wellness approach to treatment affecting body, mind, and the environment giving our patients the greatest chance of success.

Therapy at Family & Addiction Counseling is client rather than model directed. We utilize a variety of cognitive, behavioral, and evidenced based community treatments to help each patient maintain and support their unique treatment goals.

J.M.

Client

“Glen is such a pleasure to work with and I saw such great success with the individuals and families he worked with! Glen is fabulous and really puts his heart into his work and his passion to help others shines through! He is always my first pick when recommending a therapist!”

Rebecca Gavin

Care Coordinator, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Department, State of Hawaii

“I am very satisfied with the therapeutic services I receive from Joanne Humphreys. I started going to therapy with my life partner to help him deal with his bi-polar disorder. I tried to take on all the responsibilities by myself which sometimes made me very stressed and feel like I was going mentally crazy. Therapy helped me realize that I benefited from a support system to help cope with this issue. Joanne is part of my support system because she is a very compassionate person, and truly understands what we are going through. Trust and respect has us working together to better our lives with Joanne Humphreys.”

Monica Dey

Care Coordinator, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Department, State of Hawaii

“I always thought that we were good parents. But after our son started hanging out with kids that were doing drugs, it felt like we failed. Mr. Carner helped us get through our pain and gave us the tools – and strength – to get our son into counseling. Today, our son is back in our lives and learning new tools to cope with his addiction.”
