Addiction Therapists in Rosthern, SK.

Addiction work is a process. The addict must come to recognize him/herself as a client. This is often accomplished by considering the costs that the addiction has exacted on one's life. The costs may be financial, relationships, career, or even legal. The addict needs to come to a point that s/he is willing to say that life has become unmanageable. Next, specific work takes place to replace the dysfunctional behaviour, neurologically rewire the brain through sustained behaviour, and then systematically create a new life free of addiction. As said before, it is a process. Addict mentality is crucial to recognize and replace. But it can be done. And it is worth it.

With the use of TEAM-CBT and Motivational Interviewing techniques, along with a Solution Focused Brief Therapy approach we can build solutions to a life of addiction and create real and lasting change. The impetus for addiction change is client-centred and rests in an understanding of a person's readiness and willingness to change. I have worked with the Stages of Change Model for many years.

Our philosophy is harm reduction. We focus on the person and not just on the disease. We support our clients in setting realistic and attainable goals for recovery. Addictions can come in different forms from alcohol to gambling to internet. We work with clients to help them regain self control and self esteem. We have access to experts in each particular addiction area and support clients through their healing journey.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step progams, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brian in mind. That is, talking to the conscious brain while the primal brain is deciding things even before you are consciously aware? well, that is the problem to solve in addiction. We have the solution utilizing a new cutting edge neuroscience-centered brain rebalancing system. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or call 877-606-6161

I work with children whose parents experience alcohol addiction, as well as spouses and those who themselves are addicted. With children in particular we use imagery or play (depending on age) to normalize their experience, as well as to identify the role(s) they have found themselves filling in relation to the family member's addiction. We then work on creating boundaries and parameters aimed at making the client feel safe and stable, so that they can go on and develop and reach their own goals. In working with one who is addicted themselves, I use family systems theory to identify the wounded part of one's self, whose pain we might cope with using alcohol.

Has your addiction taken control of your life? Whatever the addiction, it can have a stronghold on the quality of your life and your relationships. Often, addiction provides a way to cope with life. Whatever your story, we can work together to begin the process of awareness about the triggers, emotions, hurt, and stressors that are behind the addiction. Gabor Mate posits that “it is impossible to understand addiction without asking what relief the addict finds, or hopes to find, in the drug or the addictive behaviour.” Whatever your story, I am here to come alongside you on your road to recovery.
