I provide a compassionate and non-judgmental approach that addresses both the emotional and behavioral aspects of addiction. I provide a safe space for clients to explore the underlying causes of their addictive behaviors, whether they stem from emotional pain, trauma, or unhealthy coping mechanisms. Through personalized strategies, including relapse prevention, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and emotional support, clients will learn healthier ways to manage cravings, build resilience, and regain control over their lives. My goal is to help clients achieve lasting recovery, restore relationships, and reclaim a sense of purpose and well-being.

Mood altering to avoid feeling difficult emotions is common. Be it with substances or behaviors. It often comes with shame and isolation. Over time, becoming dependent on a mood altering substance or behaviour actually provokes deep changes in the brain and decreases a person's ability to make healthy choices. It is also said that addiction is a disease of attachement where the person has come to obtain solace in their addiction which temporarily reduces their pain, be it physical or emotional. As a certified alcohol and drug counsellor and certified sex addiction counsellor, I am trained to help people return to who they are or were meant to be without harmful substances and/or behaviours.

I have extensive experience dealing with addictions. I completed my PhD thesis in 1987 researching personality factors associated to drug abuse and alcoholism. Since then, I have developed an interest in different types of addictions (internet, gambling, etc.). Together we will try to understand the underlying reasons of the problem you are dealing with. Will explore how the problem developed, your life style, triggers, emotional vulnerabilities. We will personalize a relapse prevention plan and intervention, work on strategies that make sense for you and can help you get better control of your life. My website: ehealth-psychology.ca
