Helping individuals and families find relief, healing and freedom from the effects of addiction through discovering their own personal road of recovery.
At Kagey Family Counseling, we know both personally and professionally the power of addiction and the distressing effects that the disease has on generations of families. We also know through our own personal journeys of recovery and professional experience helping others struggling with addiction that there is a path of healing for everyone and that it is possible for you and your family to discover yours. With addiction, substance abuse, codependency, trauma and issues with family dynamics so prevalent in our culture, it’s more important than ever that individuals and families battling addiction know that there is help and hope. Although addiction breeds feelings of shame, anger, guilt, betrayal, tension and isolation, you are not alone. We have been there and, in many ways, still are there. We’ll meet you where you are, offering support, guidance and respect of your culture, values, personal needs and recovery goals, helping you discover what specifically works for you.
Our substance abuse counselors and recovery coaches are specifically trained, highly experienced and, above all, compassionate. We place value in personal experience and know from the inside-out and on an intrinsic level what it feels like to struggle with chemical dependency, to become consumed with a loved one’s need for the drink and/or drug and to be raised in a family in which drugs and alcohol take priority. We understand the trauma and challenges. We also understand the joys and the confusion. There is good and bad in everyone and every situation, which is why we never place blame, shame or judge. We all have our stories and journeys, traumas that need to be healed and empowering places to go.
We know that healing is not just about the addict, which is why we also work with families and place an emphasis on healing relationships in recovery. As humans, we are meant to live, learn, love, grow and heal in relationships. In working with our team, you and your family can discover thoughtful and effective ways to foster ongoing dialogues, heal old wounds, get needs met, decipher what is yours versus another’s to hold and how to feel empowered in your own lives. You can learn to be your best possible self in the relationships you cultivate with yourself and with others regardless of what is occurring around you. Essentially, as you work toward healing yourself, you work toward healing your family.
While addiction is prevalent in our culture and we are all walking a shared path, we understand that every person and family is unique and comes to us with their own personal history, experience, needs and goals. We’ll work collaboratively with you to devise a therapy strategy that best supports and addresses where you are today and where you want to go, figuring out what works specifically for you. You know yourself and your family. We understand addiction and have the personal, clinical, therapeutic and coaching experience that can help to facilitate discoveries, growth, healing and change.
We are committed to doing whatever we can to provide substance abuse treatment, recovery coaching, family counseling and codependency counseling that is safe, confidential, inclusive and accessible. We offer evening appointments and have two office locations in Houston, TX. We also offer online therapy and recovery coaching throughout the U.S.
Find Your Freedom
If you and your family are suffering from the impact of addiction, we can help. Addiction is a family disease, and everyone needs support and a safe space to heal. We will guide you by creating an addiction recovery strategy that’s personalized for you and your family.
We offer a wide range of services to meet your needs and to help you to recover and heal from the effects of addiction. These include everything from Intervention Services with Linda Kagey to individual, family, and group counseling as well as outpatient treatment programs and recovery coaching.
If you are considering doing an Intervention for a loved one who is struggling with addiction, Linda Kagey is a Love First Interventionist. Linda’s focus is on creating a plan designed to encourage your loved one to get help by focusing on love, inclusivity and support. We invite you to go to our Intervention page to learn more.
Our individual counseling services include: Alcohol Counseling, Drug Counseling, Codependency Counseling, and Family Counseling. All of our counseling services are available in-person or Online.
We also provide several different Group Therapy options to meet your needs. Our groups are facilitated by highly experienced, licensed, and compassionate substance abuse, addiction and family counselors. They are a safe and confidential place where you can learn, share experiences, feel supported, and support others on their healing journey. Currently, we offer a Women’s Therapy Group, a Men’s Therapy Group, and a Relapse Prevention Therapy Group.
If you or your loved one needs a higher level of care for active addiction, we offer two levels of Day Treatment Programs – a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). Both PHP and IOP are done on an outpatient basis and are covered by most insurance plans. During these programs, we invite family members to participate in Family Group Therapy each week. We also provide an Aftercare Group for all clients who have completed the PHP and/or IOP programs.
If you are new to recovery or you’re the loved one of someone in recovery, we offer Recovery Coaching to provide you with the extra support you may need. For those in early recovery, our Recovery Coaches can help you navigate the triggers and challenges that come with sober living. If you’re a loved one of an addict, our Family Recovery Coaches can help you devise strategies that can help you be a support to the addict as well as uncover what you need to heal. Go to our Recovery Coaching page to find out more about these options.
There is freedom from the pain and shame of addiction. Take a powerful first step – ask for help – and start your healing journey with us today.
