Addiction Therapists in Three Hills, AB.

I believe addiction is trauma-based, so in order to attain healthy, sustainable recovery, we will address and process past and present adverse or traumatic experiences and the negative beliefs that hold you back. We will also discuss and work through destructive thought patterns, focusing on improving your sense of self and relationships, so that you can achieve your goals and reestablish purpose and higher functioning in your life.

My approach to addiction treatment is supportive, non-judgmental, and rooted in understanding the underlying emotional and psychological needs driving the behavior. I use evidence-based therapies like CBT, ACT, and mindfulness to help you develop healthier coping strategies, build self-awareness, and reconnect with your values. We’ll work together to reduce shame, strengthen emotional regulation, and support lasting change through compassion, skill-building, and a focus on what truly matters to you.

What emotions are your addiction trying to mask? What are you escaping from? Is your addiction costing you your relationship, your family, your work? Your addiction or dependency, is serving a purpose. Let’s explore, understand and uncover what that purpose is and what the core issues are. It’s time to lead a healthier and more intentional life.
