Addiction can take many forms, whether it’s substance use, gambling, shopping, or other behavioural patterns.  

My Addiction Counselling offering is open to both women and men and provides support through every stage of the recovery process. Whether you’re preparing for rehab, navigating the challenges of reintegration after residential treatment, or managing addiction on an ongoing basis, I am here to support you with compassion and understanding.

In our sessions, we’ll work together to:

• Uncover the root causes of addictive behaviours, including emotional, psychological, and relational factors.

• Work through the underlying trauma, anxiety, and stress that fuel addiction.

• Develop healthier coping mechanisms to replace addictive behaviours.

• Understand and regulate your nervous system to manage cravings and urges.

• Process feelings of guilt, shame, and self-judgment that often accompany addiction.

• Create sustainable plans for recovery, addressing both short-term and long-term goals.

• Build self-esteem and self-compassion on your journey to healing.

• Strengthen your ability to set and maintain boundaries with yourself and others.

• Explore how addiction may be connected to unresolved emotional pain or past experiences.

• Build resilience and emotional strength to overcome setbacks and continue your recovery.

Pre-Support for Rehab

If you're preparing to enter residential rehab, I offer pre-rehabilitation support to help you get ready for this life-changing step. This includes:

• Discussing your readiness for rehab and what to expect during treatment.

• Providing support with the referral process to find a rehab that meets your needs.

• Coordinating with rehab centres and assisting with logistics, ensuring a smooth transition into care.

• Offering guidance on how to manage the emotions, fears, and anxieties that can arise when considering rehab.

Post-Rehab Support

After completing a residential rehab program, the transition back to community life can be challenging. I offer ongoing post-rehabilitation support to help you integrate the tools and strategies learned in rehab into your everyday life. This includes:

• Helping you rebuild your sense of self and identity outside of addiction.

• Offering continued emotional and practical support as you reintegrate into your community.

• Navigating any challenges that arise as you work toward long-term recovery.

• Strengthening coping skills and resilience to help you maintain sobriety and well-being.

Through an integrated approach, I offer a compassionate, non-judgemental space to support you through both the pre and post rehabilitation process, as well as your ongoing recovery journey.
