Substance Use

Substance use refers broadly to the consumption of legal or illegal substances, which may or may not lead to problematic patterns. Excessive or prolonged use can increase risk of dependency or health concerns.

At ShiftGrit, clinicians use the ShiftGrit Core Method™ to identify limiting beliefs that contribute to problematic use. Reconditioning these beliefs supports clients in building healthier choices around substance involvement.
