Addictions or Substance Abuse
Amy Sheffield
Psychologist, Mc(Psych), Registered Psychologist
No one intends to lose control over substance use. Instead the initial drinking or drug use was fun, comforting or a much needed escape. However, as many as 21.6% of Canadians will lose this form of substance use control. I spent the first four years of my undergrad education trying to understand the multitude of influences that make good people vulnerable to substance use struggles. These include neurobiological factors, trauma, lack of healthy coping skills, untreated mental health concerns, broken sense of self, lack of purpose, environmental influences and interpersonal struggles. A thorough assessment to determine what factors may have triggered or are maintaining your personal substance use is therefore imperative to developing an effective treatment plan. Reduction or abstinence from substances almost always involves addressing these numerous biological, psychological and social factors that have maintained your substance use, so you can rediscover your best self.

Meera Duncan
Counsellor/Therapist, Author, Registered Counselling Therapist, Registered Clinical Counselling Hypnotherapist, & Addictions Counsellor
Reaching out for help when we are struggling takes courage.
I have been working with individuals who struggle with drug and/or alcohol addiction for decades & graduated from McMaster University in Addiction Studies in 1996. These unwanted behaviours are methods of coping with negative emotions that usually stem from trauma. I have created a unique treatment protocol that combines traditional therapy methods ( counselling & CBT) with the powerful healing benefits of clinical hypnotherapy and clinical hypnosis to give each client the best treatment approach. If you are ready to stop running from the pain you are working so hard to suppress and quiet, and begin your journey of a healthier happier, more peaceful life, please contact me today to take the first step towards healing.

Kim Silverthorn - Tacit Knowledge
Counsellor/Therapist, B.A., R.P.C., 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.
