Addiction Therapists in North Grenville, ON.

Addiction can impact many areas of life, leaving you feeling trapped or powerless. In therapy, you’ll find a supportive environment to understand the underlying causes and patterns of addiction. Together, we’ll develop strategies to break unhealthy cycles and build healthier coping skills. Clients often experience greater control, improved wellbeing, and hope for a sustainable path toward recovery and a more fulfilling life.

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. Connect with me today for a free consultation to begin your healing journey.

I view addiction not just as a problem but an unhelpful solution to a different problem. Often, we turn to addiction to get away from something else. It is that “something else” that we would try to understand in our sessions. We will then work to find healthier ways of coping to replace the addiction. I also specialize in helping reduce cannabis use, which may not be addictive as a substance but has addictive effects. It is never too late to start this journey. Call today to book a free consultation.

Addictions, normally have to do with emptiness that has to be filled and what we do to fill it up are the different kinds of vices that holds us under the control of whatever addiction one has. It is important to really explore what is being covered by the addictions because what one might think or refer as pure enjoyment might be completely different than the real reason being covered.

In addiction therapy, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental space to help you understand and address behaviours that feel out of control. Whether you’re struggling with alcohol, substances, food, gambling, gaming, or sex addiction, I work with you to explore the underlying causes, identify triggers, and develop healthier coping strategies. Together, we focus on building self-awareness, regaining control, and creating lasting change so you can lead a more balanced, fulfilling life.

Addiction can be one of life’s greatest challenges — and it can take many forms. We may find ourselves relying on substances, technology, shopping, or other behaviours to cope or find relief. Over time, these coping strategies can begin to feel difficult to manage or control. Through psychotherapy, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental space to explore what role addiction has played in your life and what meaningful change looks like for you. Whether your goal is harm reduction or complete abstinence, I will work collaboratively with you to find a balanced approach that aligns with your values and readiness for change.

More people quit addiction than maintain them. How? By viewing this condition in new light and exploring what is valued more than the addiction itself. Positive change is in your hands and can bring positive return to you across many life aspects. Life skills are available to you and together with proven evidence-based techniques we can explore you, your values, your purpose and work towards the life you want to live.

Addiction often stems from deeper issues that must be uncovered. People use substances or behaviours as a way of numbing and escaping from their pain and unmet inner longings. I can help you discover those root issues and begin the necessary healing process. I will also guide you in developing healthy new ways of handling your pain and depending upon the help of God and others throughout the process.

Addiction often overtakes whole lives and keeps its victims in captivity taking away the joy and freedom. I work with you and support you to fight it off and rebuild your life. You develop skills to effectively cope with cravings, how to go through your emotions during rough time with no judgement, and keep moving forward towards healing the relationship you have with yourself and the relationships with the close ones and begin to savor the taste of life, free of addiction.

While substance use typically begins as recreational activity it can become habit forming and often develops addictive behaviors interfering with other areas of our lives, such as relationships, jobs, and finances. To increase awareness and insight into the reasons for using, I offer evidence-based treatment while providing you with options along the continuum of the Harm Reduction approach towards abstinence. We will explore any underlying emotional needs and relationships. By gaining insight to any ambivalent thoughts and feelings around changing patterns of substance misuse I will support you in the setting and achieving of personal goals.
