Nadia Malik
Registered Psychotherapist
Substance abuse may seem impossible to manage as if its automatic and controlling you. But together we can put your addiction into perspective and learn what triggers your substance use, how else you can manage temptation, cope with stressors, ride out urges, and free yourself from this burden that holds you under its thumb. This is not a test of willpower or personal failing, it's all about skill building.

Through my work with individuals in recovery and involvement with Alcoholics Anonymous, I have supported clients navigating the challenges of rehabilitation and sobriety.

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.

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.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Substance use rarely exists on its own. It usually makes a lot of sense when you understand what it's been doing for someone. I work from a harm reduction framework, without judgment about where you are or what you're ready to change. Whether you're looking to cut back, stop, or just figure out your relationship with substances, we start from where you actually are.

Windsor's identity is defined by its location directly across the Detroit River from Detroit — making it the most automobile-dependent major Canadian city and shaping a working-class culture tied to the fortunes of the automotive industry. The city's significant Arab-Canadian community — one of the largest concentrations of Arab Canadians in the country — drives demand for Arabic-speaking and culturally informed therapists who understand the particular intersection of immigration stress, Middle Eastern family systems, and mental health in a North American context. Windsor Regional Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community, with some residents also accessing care across the border or via telehealth. The University of Windsor's applied social psychology programs contribute training resources to the local clinical community.
