Addiction and Substance Use Therapy

Addiction often starts as a way to cope with stress, pain, trauma or sleepless nights after a hard shift. Over time, the solution becomes its own problem. Therapy helps you understand what the substance or behaviour has been doing for you, so you can build other ways to meet those needs.

Our addiction therapy focuses on building resilience, developing coping strategies and solving root causes. Together we work to break the cycle and help you reclaim a healthier, more balanced life.

I can help with

  • Alcohol, cannabis and other substance use
  • Gambling
  • Substance use alongside trauma, PTSD or grief
  • Relapse prevention and staying on track
  • The impact on partners and families

If you are physically dependent on alcohol or other drugs, please speak with your doctor before cutting back, because withdrawal can be medically serious.
