Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective, addiction is understood to be a manifestation of unresolved trauma for which the addiction is a coping method. I work to help clients better understand both their addiction and their trauma, and how to resolve both by learning more healthy and helpful ways of coping and by doing trauma processing. As Gabor Mate says "do not ask why the addiction, ask why the pain".

Wayne Dewhurst
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CAMFT
Addictions can affect far more than the person struggling with the behaviour, often creating stress, conflict, and uncertainty within families and relationships. I have more than 20 years of experience helping individuals and families understand the patterns behind addictive behaviours, including sex addiction, and work toward meaningful change. My practical, non-judgmental approach focuses on building greater awareness, developing healthier coping strategies, and supporting both the individual and the people affected by the addiction.

Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counsellor, 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.

Lincoln Stoller
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, CHt, CCPCP
I specialize in neuropsychology, hypnotherapy, and cognitive-emotional exploration when addressing chemical, behavioral, situational, and mental habits. People generally focus too much on one aspect of their situations and forfeit their power to develop skills in other areas. Brain training coupled with cognitive-emotional and spiritual therapy is more effective in addressing substance addiction than chemical, behavioral, or physical therapies alone.

Ferzana Jamani
Counsellor/Therapist, BA, RTC
Addiction is rarely just about the substance—it is often a response to deep pain and a need for protection. Whether you are in recovery, currently struggling, or somewhere in between, I offer a compassionate and judgment-free space to explore what lies beneath the behavior. With experience working on the front lines of addiction and trauma treatment, I understand how complex this path can be. Together, we will gently explore the parts of you that turn to substances for relief or escape, supporting healing and helping you reconnect with your inner strength, clarity, and wholeness.

Gain a deeper understanding of your addiction patterns and the function these behaviours serve when it comes to emotional management.

Address other issues commonly associated with addiction, such as anxiety and social anxiety, stress, low self esteem, ineffective communication, trauma, and poor coping skills. Focus is placed on beginning to build a richer and more meaningful life and to develop a better relationship with the self, rather than focusing on sobriety and abstinence primarily. Get better at creating the kind of life where substances no longer play an important role.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Addictions are behaviours in which we engage to enable us to cope with deep emotional pain, usually stemming from some form of trauma in our lives. Social and environmental factors can also play a role in developing addictions. Addictions include the use of alcohol, drugs, sex, pornography, gambling, smoking, shopping, etc. as a way to provide temporary relief from the painful thoughts and negative feelings that arise within us. Over time addictions establish themselves as the go-to relief to cope with our emotions, but at the same time render us less functional. Our relationships, work, and homelife begin to suffer from the consequences of the addiction. Talking therapy can help to uncover and resolve the pain that lies beneath addiction and over time help us to reconnect with our inner selves and to discover and develop behavioural responses to replace the addictive behaviour.

Roger Thiessen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
You've probably tried to quit many times, only to pick up your addiction again. We tend to develop addictions to ease the pain of trauma or neglect. Gabor Maté suggests that, if we want to treat the addiction, we have to treat the trauma. This allows us to get to the root of the problem, rather than simply trying to stop harmful behaviours through willpower. Bringing healing to our wounds can bring lasting recovery from the power of addiction.
