Addiction Therapists in Powell River, BC.

Addiction is usually the outcome of an injury or incident in our life. The trauma of the event seeks relief or soothing through behaviors to douse the pain like a firefighter who puts out a flame. The relief or soothing is limited in the success and the behavior becomes a habit which takes on a life of its own. James will help you address the trauma which brought on the addiction whether it is a substance or behavior so that you are free to give yourself to what is a beautiful and bright future one step at a time.

I am adept at support clients in finding the root of their addiction whether it be trauma or challenges with emotional regulation. Addictive behaviour always makes sense. Unfortunately, there is still so much shame, judgement and misunderstanding when it comes to addiction. I will help you make sense of your addictive behaviour and achieve freedom.

Addiction isn’t the problem — it’s the solution your nervous system found to survive. In my counselling practice, I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed space to explore the pain beneath the pattern. Together, we slow down, listen to the body, and understand what your behaviour has been protecting. Healing begins with safety, honesty, and connection. If you’re ready to meet your story with gentleness and reclaim your freedom, I’m here to walk with you.
