Great to meet you!

Are you feeling stuck, wondering where your life is headed? When was the last time you set clear goals for your future? Do you talk about change but struggle to take action? If you've tried to quit but find yourself trapped in the same cycle, you're not alone.

I'm Charlton Cerbone, a Master’s Certified Addictions Professional (MCAP) and a person in long-term recovery. With years of experience helping individuals break free from addiction and impulsive behaviors, I am passionate about guiding people toward lasting transformation. Whether you're battling substance use, compulsive behaviors, or struggling with motivation, I provide a structured, evidence-based approach to help you reclaim your life.

Take the first step today—your future self will thank you.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I specialize in comprehensive assessments for substance abuse, sexual addiction, and anger management, ensuring that each client receives a personalized and effective treatment plan. My approach is goal-oriented, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Reality Therapy, which have proven highly effective in promoting lasting change.

My mission is to empower clients by fostering self-awareness, life skills, and goal achievement—helping you break free from the cycle of addiction and impulsive behaviors. I believe in shifting from a victim mindset to a proactive, solution-focused approach. Change is possible, and together, we can make it happen.

What you can expect from our first session

True empowerment arises from the confrontation with the self. Only through self-awareness can one transcend the unconscious patterns that bind them to addiction. To remain a victim is to surrender one's agency to the shadow; to awaken is to reclaim the power of choice.

Our work is not merely the cessation of destructive habits but the integration of the fractured self. We cultivate awareness, empathy, self-esteem, physical vitality, and mental resilience, for these are the pillars upon which individuation stands. Personal responsibility is not a burden but the bridge to transformation, and implementation is the act by which we forge our destiny. In this way, we do not merely seek recovery—we seek wholeness.
