Great to meet you!

Welcome to Live Addiction Free! My name is Jeri Jefferys, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist, Certified Clinical Supervisor, Master Addiction Counselor, and Certified Health Coach, with over 25 years experience in behavioral health treatment and adult education. I'm also a person in long-term sustained recovery with lived experience, who knows first hand the many challenges that addiction creates and that recovery is not a one size fits all, but a personal process.

My approach to therapy

I provide individual treatment and recovery coaching to adults having difficulties with relationships, finances, health and overall well-being because of the use of alcohol, marijuana, drugs, or gambling.

I help people effectively cope with stressors, reach their goals, and create a healthy balanced life using current evidence based best practices such as Motivational Interviewing, CBT, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy, I welcome people who are at all different places with their use/behavior.

What you can expect from me

So whether you want to be abstinent, reduce your risks or strengthen your recovery plan, together we can improve your relationships, health, finances and well-being. We will create your personalized "tool box" of coping skills to manage life stressors, set realistic and attainable goals with manageable baby steps to get there, and develop a life that is aligned with who you are and what you value most.
