Addiction Therapists in Battleford, SK.

The key to combating an addiction is to deal with the issues that are leading to the person issuing substances. This means committing to a process of looking an ones life in detailed history and discussing issues to a point of resolve. This process also involves the client to be an active participant in their healing process through letter writing, journaling and processing their emotions. Having sober positive supports is also an integral part of sobriety.

Many approaches to addiction emphasize willpower and deprivation, but this only works temporarily. Alcohol, substances, or other addictive behaviours like gambling and gaming offer short-term relief of underlying issues at a long-term cost to one's relationships and health. As an addiction counsellor, I can help you resolve underlying issues, regain control, and build a sense of meaning and purpose, so you can start living the life you want. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to addiction recovery. I meet each client where they are at, tailoring my approach to each person's unique needs. Send me a message and we can connect for a quick call to discuss next steps.

With powerful techniques, accountability, and genuine warmth, I help clients fully understand and master their drinking habits - so they can finally have the robust health, career, and relationships they deserve.
