Addiction Therapists in Beaverton, ON.

Addictions do not have to continue to keep you stuck. Through the use of acceptance and mindfulness strategies, I can help clients to be fully present in the moment and to accept otherwise negative emotions that are at the heart of the issue. Commitment and behavior change strategies help clients to change or persist in behaviors more in line with their own values. Used together these strategies increase client’s psychological flexibility.

Addiction can be a scary thing that is often surrounded by ambiguity and confusion: why do I continue to use when I know it is bad for me? Why do I want to use in the first place? Why can't I seem to stop using and why cant I change? In working with clients, step 1 of our work is figuring out the answers to these questions and figuring out why addiction occurs in the first place. After this, we explore tools, resources, and therapies that will best work for clients in helping them create the changes they need and to promote the lives they want.

Counselling for addiction at Neurodiversity Aware Therapy explores how substance use or other coping strategies can become linked with motivation, anxiety, or low mood, particularly for neurodivergent people. Our approach focuses on understanding patterns of thinking and behaviour, the purposes substances may serve, and their impact on daily life. Therapy supports clients in increasing insight, strengthening motivation, and developing practical strategies that reduce harm and support goals aligned with their values.

Few challenges in life are as difficult as quitting an addiction. If you're feeling stuck, there is a way out. Psychotherapy is proven to treat addiction safely and effectively. There are many benefits to seeking help for addiction: most of all, it allows you to take back control of your life and reconnect to the things that matter. I use tools and strategies that are especially effective at getting to the root of issues so you maintain the changes you make in therapy.

While I have had little training for addiction, I can offer counselling for the anxiety, depression, family relationship challenges, and boundary-setting related to the addiction. Addiction often requires medical professionals, counsellors, family and a strong support system so I am often a member of a team helping a person and/or family. My passion is to find a cause for the use of addiction and this is explored with family of origin history and processing of past trauma experiences.
