Harness of Joy Psychotherapy Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RCSW EMDRIA Approved Consultant & Credit Provider
At Harness of Joy Psychotherapy Services, our approach to addiction and substance abuse recovery goes beyond surface-level behavior management to address the underlying drivers of dependence. We recognize that compulsive behaviors and chemical reliance frequently stem from chronic nervous system dysregulation, emotional pain, and unaddressed historical stress. By integrating trauma-informed care, affective neuroscience, and somatic grounding, we help clients resolve the deep-seated distress feeding addictive cycles. Our work focuses on neutralizing persistent triggers, regulating overwhelming emotional states, and restoring internal resilience—empowering you to break free from compulsive patterns and build a grounded, sustainable path toward lasting recovery and authentic vitality.

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.

Addiction is NOT a choice. Substance use is usually bourne out of traumatic experiences and is a coping mechanism to escape from them. As it's not a good coping mechanism, this "escape" often becomes an additional problem to deal with. To work with an addiction, the best way is to target the issues that created the addiction itself, meanwhile learning practical and realistic tools to manage the addiction and emotions. You don't have to live on a rollercoaster of shame, guilt, and regret. Change is never easy but that doesn't mean it's impossible; everything worth anything takes effort and commitment in order to achieve success. When you're finally sick and tired of the burdens and having the substances control you, let's start working to take your life back.
