Substance Abuse
Kim Silverthorn - Tacit Knowledge
Counsellor/Therapist, B.A., M.P.C.C., C.T.
Tacit works with clients who are struggling with the challenges of substance use/abuse issues. For some clients, Tacit will provide counselling supports as clients prepare for and followup after their involvement in a Substance Abuse Residential Treatment program. For other clients who do not wish to access a Treatment Program, Tacit will provide regular counselling supports to help address the underlying factors that have resulted in a substance use/abuse coping strategy that is no longer effective for that individual.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective, addiction is understood to be a manifestation of unresolved trauma for which the addiction is a coping method. I work to help clients better understand both their addiction and their trauma, and how to resolve both by learning more healthy and helpful ways of coping and by doing trauma processing. As Gabor Mate says "do not ask why the addiction, ask why the pain".

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
I specialize in treating and repairing addictive patterns by addressing both the behaviors and the underlying emotional, relational, and nervous system drivers that sustain them. My work focuses on reducing compulsive use, interrupting cycles of shame and secrecy, and rebuilding self-regulation, accountability, and self-trust. Through structured therapeutic intervention, nervous system stabilization, and relational repair, clients are supported in creating lasting recovery and meaningful change—at a pace that respects their lived experience while remaining oriented toward sustainable resolution of addiction.

Penelope (Penny) Yen
Psychologist, BA (Hons), MACP, Registered Provisional Psychologist
Addiction is a beast; one I have fought for most of my life, and beating it (and continuing to beat it every day) is one of the hardest things I've ever done. I'm also living proof that it can be done.
I'm different in that I'm not here to enforce any programs on you and will never judge you. I will work with who you are as a person to determine how best you can recover, on your terms.
