I'm Jeff Hunsucker. I'm a licensed clinical social worker and addiction specialist. I am also a certified peer support specialist. I've been working in substance use and mental health treatment for 13 years, and I value the inherent worth of every person. Each client will be treated with respect and dignity as they strive to reach their full potential. I'm a compassionate guide in the recovery process that walks along side of my clients in their journey.
Clients can expect to encounter a warm and friendly therapist who is truly curious about their wants, needs, and goals. They can also expect someone who is non-judgemental, and makes them feel welcome and safe to be themselves.
My greatest strengths as a provider are my compassion, my ability to teach new skills, and my ability to relate to my clients being that I am a person in long-term recovery myself.
I'm best positioned to serve individuals struggling with addictions and other mental health diagnoses who are hoping to find healing and wellness. I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to achieve a higher quality of life through the work of recovery.
Have been trained and have utilized ACT for several years in practice settings. I integrate it into sessions and treatment planning.
Have been trained and have been utilizing in practice for over a decade. I use it in virtually every session to assist with identifying stages of change , values clarification, and increasing client motivation.
I approach clients from a person first lens that does not identify the client as their diagnosis. I use a strengths based approach along with person-centeredness to help the clients achieve greater self-efficacy.
