Substance Abuse
Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
Addiction is driven by the psyche which is trying to salve a troublesome problem that we may not even be aware of and is trying to help us to survive. Addiction hijacks our self and we need to get back in control of our own lives and destinies. An addiction is often more compelling than anything else including family, earning a living and can wreck our life.. Some substances also cause a physical addiction that can be managed and reduced with medical help. Once we determine and understand why this addiction exists, we can start to process it and loosen its grip on us.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
At Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center, we approach substance use with compassion and clarity. We understand that addiction is often rooted in pain, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and unmet needs rather than simply willpower or choice. Our work focuses on uncovering the underlying patterns driving substance use, strengthening coping and regulation skills, and rebuilding trust within oneself and relationships. We provide a non-judgmental space where clients can explore their story, develop sustainable recovery strategies, and move toward lasting freedom and stability.

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.

Support for anyone at any stage of recovery, whether you’re just starting to explore change or already on your way.

The focus is always on your goals and what recovery looks like for you. I specialize in both substance use (alcohol & drugs) and behavioural addictions (gambling, gaming/tech, sexual behaviours)

Mary Mikhail
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BSW, MACP, RSW
If alcohol or other substance use is affecting your life, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Therapy can offer a space to talk openly about your experiences without judgment and explore what you want to change.
Together, we can look at the role substance use has played in your life, identify patterns or situations that make change difficult, and build practical strategies to support your goals. Whether you’re considering a change, hoping to reduce or stop using, or working through a return to use, we can approach the process with care and focus on what feels meaningful and manageable for you.

Bipolar Disorder Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Greg Rennie has over 10 years experience working as an addiction specialist in top addiction treatment centres in Ontario, Canada. He utilizes the same approaches as "rehabs" do but in an outpatient, one to one environment. He has helped many clients overcome why they go back again and again to their substance or behaviour of choice and can't seem to stay clean and sober. As someone who is in recovery himself (30 years) he also has been challenged with the why of addiction as his clients have used an external means to escape from their core issues. He is trained in Psychedelic- Assisted Therapy and affiliated with Ketamind Health in Markham, Ontario. Contact him at greg@bipolar-addiction.com

Addictive patterns often begin as protection. Instead of fighting yourself, we gently explore what you’ve been trying to soothe. From there, we build inner safety so you don’t have to escape your own emotions anymore.

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.

Substance Abuse
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
I view addictive patterns as powerful survival strategies—often, they are a 'part' of you trying to manage unbearable emotional pain. My perspective is shaped by over a decade of international experience, having worked on the frontlines of drug and alcohol agencies and homeless shelters in both the UK and Canada.
This background allows me to meet you with deep compassion and zero judgment. We won't just focus on the behavior; we will address the underlying trauma and early relationships that made these substances feel like a necessity. Together, we work to help your 'parts' find safer ways to cope, moving you toward a life of stability and genuine choice.
