Addictions therapists in Norfolk County, Ontario ON, Canada CA
Molly Heffernan
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Addictions (substance use disorders) are not a free choice. Nobody is born, hoping to grow up depending on a substance to cope and/or survive. Addictions often serve as a way to cope with overwhelming emotions and life's many challenges. They can be an attempt to fill a void, numb pain, or manage stress. If you or someone you live is struggling, please know that this is not a sign of weakness or failure -- rather, it's a way that human has adapted to survive how hard life can be. Healing and recovery are possible, and taking this first step is a huge act of courage.

Magdalena Karakehayova
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Substance use can often feel like the only effective way of coping with traumatic events or challenging life circumstances. I believe that therapy should open space for clients to discuss their experience with substance use and what purpose this serves in their lives. I take a de-pathologizing stance and work collaboratively with clients to explore what substance use means to them and see how this fits with their ideas and hopes for their life and future. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to ensure we are a good fit.
