LifeCycle Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, MPE, RP
Addiction counselling sessions can explore the reasons why the addiction happened such as the behaviour and the motivations of the person. This then helps the individual to become more aware of their actions and understand themselves better. This is very important in the process of recovery.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel on edge, overwhelmed, or driven to escape uncomfortable feelings? Many people struggling with substance use or compulsive behaviors learned early on to push emotions down or manage them through coping strategies that once made sense. You may have been taught that anger is unacceptable, sadness is weakness, or vulnerability isn’t safe—so substances or behaviors became a way to get through.
These emotions themselves aren’t the problem. They’re natural, meaningful signals. What matters is how we respond when they show up. Together, we can gently explore your experiences, understand the role addiction has played, and develop more intentional ways of coping—so you can feel more grounded, in control, and lighter over time. You feel things deeply for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

Substance Abuse
Michelle Directo
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP, ExA
"Not all addictions are rooted in abuse or trauma, but I do believe they can all be traced to painful experience. A hurt is at the centre of all addictive behaviours". - Gabor Mate, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction
Addiction or substance use is not an identity but a behaviour, a way for us to cope with our hurt and pain. There is often guilt and shame associated with addictive behaviours. My hope is that we can work together to access resources, understand the addictive/substance use behaviour and find ways to to help you manage the risks of substance use.

Michael Greene
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling Psychology, Registered Psychologist College of Psychotherapists of Ontario
Addiction is a way of coping with your pain. It is a medication that is self destructive. I will help you befriend and become conscious of the origins of your pain. You will learn how to listen to your feelings rather than run away from them. We will work together to give you different coping devices. I will help you see yourself in a way that you can have compassion for who you are and what happened to you rather than be unkind and cruel to yourself.

Barbara Freedman
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor
Addictions-Substance Abuse
Alcohol-Weed-Street Drugs-Pick your poison. Addictions are a defence mechanism or in simple terms a way of avoiding our feelings. As a trauma informed counsellor, there are very few clients whom I have come across that have not experienced some sort of addiction. Similarly, as I have done with so many of them, we can begin to safely talk about the feelings and matters which may have led you down this path or are keeping you stuck in pattern of behavior. Aside from working through these one of the key issues in dealing with addictions is finding more healthy ways of coping to replace or at least reduce these harmful behaviors. I would be honored to offer you my support and guidance in developing a plan, at your own pace, to become less dependent on whatever you are having difficulty letting go of.

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.

Substance Abuse
Shane Smyth
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, OACCPP
I have worked in the area of addiction for over 8 years and I am able to work with people to identify the chain of events that leads to engaging in addictive or compulsive behaviours. Sometimes exploring underlying issues such as trauma, anxiety, relationship issues or depression is part of the work with addiction and sometimes it is more helpful to explore behavioural changes and work with someone to mindfully change their habits. I do not believe in stigmatising or shaming addiction as I have had my own struggles with addiction and compulsive behaviours. The first step is understanding with a sense of compassion.

Substance Abuse
Cynthia Sewell, Embrace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CH CHyp
Substance use is often a symptom of a bigger problem. It becomes a very quick and easy way to cope with stress. The flip side of this is that it is a bandaid solution, the problem is still waiting for you. Cannabis-just because it's legal does not mean that it is a good idea.
