Addiction Therapists in Callander, ON.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and DeTUR (Desensitization of Triggers and Urge Reprocessing) are powerful tools in addiction therapy. EMDR addresses underlying traumas contributing to addiction, diminishing their impact and associated triggers. DeTUR, a specialized form of EMDR, focuses on dismantling triggers and urges linked to addictive behaviors. Both techniques help individuals reprocess past experiences and cravings, fostering healthier coping mechanisms and reducing the risk of relapse, ultimately supporting long-term recovery from addiction.

Addictions come in many forms and I work with many additions and "habits" including substance use, smoking and food addictions. Addictions (especially involving drug and alcohol) are strongly associated with trauma and I take a trauma-informed approach to therapy. I often utilize the potent tool of hypnosis when working with addictions and habit control.

Addiction is a multifaceted challenge, and understanding its roots is key to recovery. I specialize in addiction counseling, focusing on mild to moderate addiction.

As a therapist, I know how challenging it can be to manage addiction. Addiction can impact the quality of our lives, our relationships, and our connection to ourselves. Therapy can provide a safe space to navigate addiction and explore what you wish for in relation to the substance or behaviour. Discussing the addiction can also provide us useful clues as to what roots the addiction, allowing us to navigate the core issue at hand and explore preferred coping strategies.
