Specialization breakdown
What to expect from therapy in Juneau
Whether you're new to therapy or have tried it before, here's what working through substance use or addiction with a Juneau-based (or Alaska-licensed online) therapist usually looks like.
An honest starting point
The first sessions look at what you use or do, how often, what it gives you and what it costs you, along with any anxiety or depression that comes with it — without judgment.
Building motivation
Using motivational interviewing, your therapist helps you explore your own reasons for change — not lecturing, but helping you find your internal motivation.
A plan for cravings
CBT-based relapse prevention teaches you to anticipate risky situations and ride out cravings, with a written plan for the hardest moments.
When slips happen
Relapse is common and isn't a reason to stop. Therapy helps you understand what led to it and adjust the plan, so progress continues.

Addiction help that fits shift work in Juneau
In jobs with long, irregular shifts, stimulants to stay awake and alcohol to wind down can turn into a daily cycle. For workers in Juneau caught in that pattern, a therapist can help break it safely. You don't have to hit rock bottom to start addiction therapy, and you don't have to have decided to quit; many people begin by asking whether their use is a problem. One safety note: stopping alcohol or benzodiazepines abruptly after heavy, regular use can cause dangerous withdrawal, and opioid withdrawal is hard to manage alone, so plan detox with a doctor.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills help when intense emotions are a main trigger for use. Group counseling, common in outpatient programs, lets you practice new skills alongside others working toward similar goals.
Taking the first step toward recovery in Juneau
Spending more and more time getting, using or recovering from a substance — and less on things you used to care about — is a core warning sign. Thoughts of suicide or self-harm alongside heavy use need help now: call or text 988.
SAMHSA's National Helpline (1-800-662-4357) is free, confidential and open 24/7, and can help locate treatment options for where you live. If you work shifts, ask about early, late or weekend sessions, and whether online sessions are possible between shifts. Look for credentials in addiction work, such as a licensed addiction counselor or a therapist who lists substance use as a specialty. A short list of two or three addiction therapists in Juneau, picked on the focus areas and fees their profiles list, is enough to start.

Find addiction help in Juneau →Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I call for free, confidential help?
SAMHSA's National Helpline, 1-800-662-4357, is free, confidential and open 24/7 in English and Spanish, and can refer you to treatment and support groups. If you're in crisis or thinking about suicide, call or text 988.
Can my family be part of addiction treatment?
Yes. Family involvement often helps, and approaches such as CRAFT teach family members how to encourage a loved one toward treatment — even before that person is ready.
Can I get addiction help if I also have depression or anxiety?
Yes, and having both is common. Treating them together is generally recommended, so look for a therapist who lists co-occurring conditions or dual diagnosis among their specialties.
How much does addiction therapy cost in Juneau?
Addiction therapy in Juneau typically costs $120–$250 per session. For a sense of scale, twelve weekly sessions at that rate come to about $1,440–$3,000 before insurance or sliding-scale discounts. Insurance, sliding-scale fees and less frequent sessions can bring that down; ask before the first appointment.
Can I get addiction counseling online in Alaska?
Yes — video sessions work well for most concerns. The therapist needs to be licensed in Alaska (where you are during the session), so a good fit for addiction therapy can be anywhere in the state, not only in Juneau. About 40% of the 5 therapists listed in Juneau mention online sessions on their profile. Video sessions make it easier to keep a steady weekly slot early on, when consistency matters most.
