About William Mclachlan

 Why Work With Me?

At Angelus I provide 1:1 mental health counseling for those who may have had a history of addiction impact the direction of their lives and relationships.

I take a very straightforward approach to treatment. I focus on the importance of changing routines, relationships, and ways of thinking that often pull a person back into addictive behaviors.

We will look at stress factors, mental health issues, trauma backgrounds, family dynamics, and other life factors that can be playing a dysfunctional role in your life. Sessions will focus on teaching you how to recognize moods, thoughts, and situations that stimulate cravings. We will work together on developing ways to avoid these triggers, and replace negative thoughts and feelings with healthier ones that are more consistent with where you are wanting to head in life.

This is NOT a Drug or Alcohol treatment facility. We do not focus on active addiction issues or treatment and highly recommend that if you are in an active addiction that you seek a level of care evaluation first. If you are in Western PA, the Lawrence County Drug & Alcohol Commission is a great resource for this.
