Sarah Glinski
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)
Feeling out of control and unable to stop engaging in harmful behaviours can feel shameful, over-whelming and hopeless. My approach to addiction treatment is based in a harm reduction model. This approach acknowledges that maintaining abstinence may not be a realistic goal. Without judgement we will work together to set realistic goals that seek to reduce the negative impacts of your addiction. You may choose to explore the roots of your addiction and any other related issues. It will always be up to you. Please reach out for a consult so we can assess whether I am the right therapist to help you move toward change and stability.

Nicole Moss
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C.S.P.S.S
Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying the weight of addiction or substance abuse on your own. My goal is to support you as I genuinely feel that everyone holds their own map to healing, however, many often need help navigating their path forward. Whether you’re also working on trauma recovery, healing from abuse, or working through the stages of grief, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am grateful to be that source of support for current and new clients. I help people create, enforce, and maintain boundaries that may have once felt impossible to implement, giving them space to feel safer, more empowered, and more connected to themselves and others. I work from an eclectic approach, believing there is no one-size-fits-all path to therapy. Together we can help you break free from limiting patterns and beliefs.

Robert M. Lee
Registered Psychotherapist
I approach addiction and substance use not as a moral failing but as an attempt to regulate pain, trauma, or inner conflict. Using mindfulness, depth psychology, and somatic awareness, we explore the underlying patterns driving compulsive behaviors. Rather than focusing solely on abstinence, our work centers on understanding the emotional and psychological roots of addiction—helping you develop self-awareness, resilience, and healthier ways of relating to yourself. Whether you're navigating substance use, dependency, or seeking integration after psychedelic experiences, therapy provides a space for healing and transformation.

Therapy can provide a safe space to navigate addiction and explore what you wish for in relation to the substance or behaviour. Discussing the addiction can also provide us useful clues as to what roots the addiction, allowing us to navigate the core issue at hand and explore preferred coping strategies.

Maor Bernshtein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
When addiction takes hold, it’s easy to feel trapped in a cycle you don’t fully understand. You may know what you want to change, but still feel powerless to stop. This can leave you questioning your own worth. I am committed to helping you uncover the deeper causes of your struggles and regain control of your life. In therapy, you can work to identify the triggers that lead to substance use. The goal of therapy is to help you make clearer, more informed choices about your use of substances or alcohol and to live a life that is more manageable and congruent with your goals. Together, we’ll understand the root of your struggles, unpack the patterns that keep them going, work through shame without judgment, and build healthier ways to cope, make clearer choices, and regain control. Visit pathwaytoself.ca to book a free 20-minute consultation and ask any questions you have.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Masters of Counselling Psychology (MACP)
Working through addiction and compulsive habits can be one of the most challenging things we ever have to do. Fortunately, our knowledge and understanding of this work has shifted to a trauma-informed approach that embraces healing the unique individual who is struggling with addiction rather than the addiction itself. As a therapist, I work with clients to cultivate an environment that will allow for a deeper exploration into understanding the important role the addictive habit has been playing in your life as we seek to transform the relationship you have with yourself in the process. Schedule a free consultation with me to ensure we are a good fit.

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.

Burlington is one of the most affluent cities in the Greater Toronto Area — situated between Hamilton and Oakville along the western shore of Lake Ontario — with a largely White, upper-middle-class population and a therapy culture shaped by the stresses of high-income suburban family life, corporate careers, and the pressure to maintain prosperity across generations. Joseph Brant Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving the Alton Village, Tansley, and Millcroft neighborhoods. Burlington's relative homogeneity is changing as immigration diversifies the population, with growing South Asian and East Asian communities beginning to shape a broader range of therapy demand. The city's proximity to Hamilton's therapy ecosystem and the broader GTA network means specialist care is generally accessible for those willing to travel or use telehealth.
