Sharron Carson
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Having an addiction is not a sign of weakness or lack of character. In fact, reaching out for help and being open to change takes a great deal of strength. My approach is one of openness and non-judgment. I follow a harm reduction approach meaning that I respect my clients right to set their own goals which will then guide our sessions. I appreciate that not everyone is ready to, nor wants to, work towards full sobriety. Harm reduction is about reducing the negative impact that substance use has on that person’s well-being and life. I strongly believe that any positive change is a success. If you think that my approach would work for you, please book a free consultation.

Tony Miller
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD, RP
Contrary to what is believed, addiction usually starts with a positive impact on a person’s life and even sometimes saves their life. However, as the time goes by, this creative adjustment becomes outdated and turns into a problem. Therefore, working with addiction should not be about illuminating the symptoms or the manifestations of the addiction, but rather trying to understand the reasons underlying the addiction and the function that it used to serve. A successful recovery is only possible through understanding and even respecting the addiction. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Sierra Goldfinger
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
As a therapist, I know how challenging it can be to manage addiction. Addiction can impact the quality of our lives, our relationships, and our connection to ourselves. 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.

Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
If you’re reading this, you may be thinking about making changes around your alcohol or substance use — or perhaps you’re worried about someone you care about. Reaching this point is meaningful. It takes honesty and courage to look at your relationship with substances and wonder if something needs to shift. Recognizing a potential problem is never easy, and acknowledging it is a very important first step.
You might notice that once you start using, it’s hard to stop. Maybe loved ones have expressed concern, or you’ve noticed consequences in your health, relationships, or day-to-day functioning. These experiences don’t mean you’ve failed — they simply signal that something in your coping system needs attention, and that you deserve support.
Recovery is deeply personal, and there is no single “right” way to do it. For some people, abstinence feels like the safest and healthiest path. For others, the goal might be reducing use, setting limits, or finding new ways to cope before turning to substances. What matters most is that the goals reflect what you want for your life. The fact that you’re seeking information, asking questions, and exploring your options shows a readiness for change — and that readiness matters.
There’s a common phrase in recovery: “Only I can do it, but I can’t do it alone.” Most people recognize their patterns long before they’re able to shift them, because triggers, habits, and stress responses are powerful. Trying to manage all of that without support can feel overwhelming. Connecting with a therapist or recovery professional can help you understand your patterns, face your triggers with more confidence, and build healthier ways of coping.
At Laird Counselling, our team brings extensive experience from both residential and community-based treatment settings. We understand the wide range of treatment options available — from outpatient counselling to detox services to group programs — and we can help you navigate what fits best for your goals and circumstances. We also understand that addiction doesn’t only affect the individual; it has a ripple effect, touching family, partners, and friends. If you’re supporting someone who is struggling, your well-being matters too. Having your own support can help you maintain boundaries, reduce burnout, and stay grounded as you care for your loved one.
Deciding to make a change, even a small one, can feel intimidating — but you don’t have to figure everything out alone. There are practical strategies, supportive tools, and local resources that can help you feel more confident and hopeful about the path ahead.
If you’d like to explore your options or simply talk things through, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation. We can discuss your situation, answer your questions, and help you determine the next steps that feel right for you or someone you care about.

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)
