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.

Tina Larkin
Registered Social Worker, Master of Social Work, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional
Addiction and substance abuse is often a coping skill used to manage an underlying problem. Together, we will explore these issues and develop strategies to overcome or manage symptoms.

Roger Thiessen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
You've probably tried to quit many times, only to pick up your addiction again. We tend to develop addictions to ease the pain of trauma or neglect. Gabor Maté suggests that, if we want to treat the addiction, we have to treat the trauma. This allows us to get to the root of the problem, rather than simply trying to stop harmful behaviours through willpower. Bringing healing to our wounds can bring lasting recovery from the power of addiction.

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.

Kaylei Murray
Registered Psychotherapist, CRPO, ACTA
I support clients in understanding the underlying emotional and relational patterns connected to substance use. Rather than focusing solely on behavior, our work explores what the substance may be helping to manage, creating space for more sustainable and intentional coping.
