Alcohol use can strain relationships, lead to arguments at home, and leave the people closest to you worried. Noah Peter, PMHNP-BC, provides outpatient alcohol use disorder treatment in Long Beach to help you address drinking patterns and mental health concerns that go with them.
Alcohol use disorder, often called alcoholism, is a real medical condition, not a lack of willpower. According to NIAAA, 28 million U.S. adults had AUD in the past year. It often develops quietly; a drink to cope with stress turns into needing a drink to feel normal.

Alcohol use can become harder to manage alongside anxiety, ADHD, or depression. At our mental health clinic, we help you understand how drinking may be connected to changes in your mood, thoughts, behavior, and emotional health.
Our alcohol use disorder treatment in Long Beach focuses on your goals, concerns, and daily life. We treat teens, adults, and couples. Care may include therapy or medication support for AUD, with adjustments based on your response and treatment needs. Mentally Healthy Care is an outpatient practice. We do not provide medical detox or residential treatment, and we can discuss referral options if you need a higher level of care.
Noah Peter reviews your alcohol use, mental health, and daily concerns to understand what care may fit your needs.
We identify stress, conflict, cravings, and other situations that may lead to drinking and plan healthier responses.
We may adjust therapy and medication based on your symptoms, progress, and how well your treatment is working.
We help you recognize warning signs, manage cravings, and prepare for situations that could bring you back to drinking.

Noah Peter can review your alcohol use and help you work out the safest next step, including a referral if a higher level of care is appropriate. If you have severe symptoms such as seizures, confusion, or hallucinations, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Drinking may be a problem if you often drink more than planned or keep drinking even when it causes problems at home or work. Using alcohol as a way to handle emotional distress or pressure can also be a warning sign. An evaluation can help you understand whether your drinking may meet the signs of alcohol use disorder.
