Substance Abuse
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.

Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
Struggling with addiction often means battling shame, isolation, and the overwhelming feeling that you're trapped in patterns you can't break. I understands that addiction is rarely just about substances or behaviors—it's often rooted in deeper emotional pain, trauma, or limiting beliefs that developed as survival mechanisms.
Using evidence-based approaches like CBT to address thought patterns that fuel addictive behaviors, DBT skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and EMDR to process underlying trauma, I help clients understand the "why" behind their addiction while building practical tools for lasting recovery.
I create a completely non-judgmental space where you can explore your relationship with addiction without fear of criticism. Whether you're seeking recovery from substance use, behavioral addictions, or supporting a loved one through their journey, I will work with you to develop healthy coping strategies, rebuild self-worth, and create a life where recovery feels sustainable and fulfilling.
Recovery is possible, and you don't have to face it alone. Together, we will work toward breaking free from the cycle and reclaiming the life you deserve.

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.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
Addiction often develops as a way of coping with emotional pain, trauma, stress, or overwhelming life experiences rather than a lack of willpower. Together, we'll explore the underlying causes of addictive behaviours, develop healthier coping strategies, and build the self-awareness and resilience needed to create lasting change. My goal is to help you break free from unhealthy patterns, strengthen your self-worth, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.
