Addiction Therapists in Gananoque, ON.

Addiction or substance abuse is as individual as each person and so is the psychotherapy response. If you have difficulty controling the use of a substance: alcohol, drugs, food, gambling, spending, pornography, etc. there can be a wide range of reasons. Arriving at an understanding of the role that this substance plays in your life, what are its origins, its possible benefits and its consequences is essential to determining how to control it or eliminate it from your life. It may be that control and minimizing is possible depending upon the impact it is having on your behaviour. Together we can understand where your dependence originates and how you can take control over it.
