Gui Mansilla
Registered Psychotherapist, Lawyer (Arg) M.Div (USA) Reg. Psychotherapist (CA) Coach (Ca)
My journey with addiction is deeply personal, having been marked by the impact of my father's functional addiction from a young age. Despite the challenges it posed to our family, his struggles provided a unique perspective on the insidious nature of this illness—one that systematically dismantles lives, relationships, self-esteem, and even financial well-being.
While some may find it surprising, I consider it a fortune to have experienced the profound effects of addiction within my family. This experience became a catalyst for my healing and understanding of this intricate and complex illness. Today, as a specialized therapist and coach in addiction, I draw upon my personal journey to not only care for myself but also guide countless others through their path to recovery.
Working with addiction is powerful because, behind the façade of this illness, attempting to soothe deep-seated pain, there is always a remarkable human being waiting to actualize their full potential. I view addiction as an illness that, with proper care, can transform into a blessing, unleashing newfound superpowers. Those who have survived the grip of addiction, embarked on a healing journey and acquired wisdom and tools can become agents of positive change in the world.
Witnessing individuals transition from the depths of addiction to a purposeful and passionate life is akin to witnessing a superpower in action. The trauma, pain, and neglect that fueled the addiction often become the driving force behind a life dedicated to health, well-being, and positive impact.
Approaching this work requires delicacy and depth. The individual undertaking the healing journey needs perseverance, a thorough understanding, and decisive action to transform the dark tunnel of addiction into a sea of light. It would be my utmost honour to guide you through this challenging and isolating experience, helping you emerge into a world of your own creation—a world filled with choices that fulfill your life and enrich the lives of those around you.

Patricia Scholl
Life Coach, CASAC trained, BA in Communications
Substance abuse doesn't only take you away from who you really are, but also rewires your brain. So does any type of learned behavior. In order to change, you will need to learn how to think differently and what to focus on to reach your goals. Communicating is the only way you can get back to the person you were meant to be.

Dr Laura Soden
Psychologist, PhD, Clinical Psychology
Substance abuse recovery must include physical, emotional, and relational remedies, may begin with harm reduction, but must end in abstinence, and, I believe, must proceed in conjunction with 12-Step programs. The psychological aspect of treatment must target the negative emotional sequelae of addiction--shame, guilt, self-hatred, shattered relationships.

A Better High,LLC
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, C.A.R.C.
Addiction changes the way people think, cope, connect, and survive. I work with people who are tired of white-knuckling it, hiding it, minimizing it, or feeling trapped in the same cycle. My approach is honest, direct, and deeply human. Together we focus on understanding the patterns underneath the behavior, rebuilding self-respect, and creating real momentum toward a more stable and meaningful life.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I work with many clients who are struggling with substance use, sobriety, relapse, and the complicated feelings that surround addiction. My approach is harm reduction and compassion-based, influenced by Buddhist psychology and mindfulness practices. I have both professional experience in inpatient treatment and personal experience with addiction in my family, and I understand that addiction is rarely just about the substance—it’s often about pain, trauma, loneliness, and trying to cope. In our work together, we focus on reducing harm, understanding what the addiction is doing for you, and building other ways to survive and cope.

Substance Abuse
Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
As a specialist in Addictions and Substance Abuse, I have over 35 years clean and sober myself. I believe that even though there is brain involvement in addictive behaviours, addiction is primarily a choice that people make to not have to deal with the reality of their situations - and that the addict can make a different choice. Family members often don't understand the difference between ENABLING and HELPING when they try to support the addicts they love. When families can stop enabling their addict and start helping instead, the addict then has a better chance of recovery from addiction. When addiction is in a family, everyone is affected and everyone needs to heal.

Alexander Beznes
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I take a harm-reduction approach to substance abuse and dependency issues. My goal is to help you develop insight and awareness around your use and how it impacts your daily life. Addiction starts as an attempt to cope with pain. What may have once helped you feel safe or liberated is now causing shame and consuming you. I want to help you break free from destructive cycles that are rooted in emotional patterns.
