Eleine Gordon Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Master's Degree in Counselling Psychology MC, RCC and CCC
I have worked in Addictions and Mental Health for over 20 years. I provide harm reduction and/or abstinence based therapy depending on whether you want to reduce alcohol and/or drugs or you want to stop completely. I believe substance use and addictions may be a symptom of something else going on in life whether it is stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, family problems, or other more complex issues. We work at the root of the issue as needed to get you back on the path of health and wellness. I use an integrated approach drawing from trauma informed CBT, ACT, DBT, the Biopsychosocialspiritual Model of Counselling, and Motivational Interviewing. I also provide counselling, psychoeducation, and support to families, partners, individuals, and youth who are impacted by someone else's use. I provide information and psychoeducation on drugs and alcohol as well.

Substance Abuse
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.

Carol D.B. Whaley Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I have worked extensively with all forms of addiction for over 22 years. Always at the root of any addiction is unresolved emotional wounding or trauma. I work to de-shame the addictive behaviour; understanding that it has been used as a resource to cope with deep emotional pain. I work on fostering self-compassion and offer deep healing of the core issues where the addiction began, each therapeutic response tailored to the uniqueness of each persons addictive behaviour. Through a combination of body centred psychotherapy, practical behavioural tools, and the use of outside supportive resources where needed, most addictions can be resolved or navigated so that one can thrive again in their life.

Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
It takes a lot of courage to admit you have an addiction. It takes courage to admit when you feel you are no longer in control of your desires.
I want to tell you that you are not alone. Whether it is the better-known addictions like alcohol, nicotine, and substances like opiates/cocaine/amphetamines, or something behavioral like gambling, overeating, or internet use, there is nothing wrong with you and you aren’t the only person experiencing this. The alcohol industry spends millions of dollars each year finding the best way to get you to drink. Casinos spend millions getting you to gamble. The tech giants of social media/gaming/pornography spend millions to maximize your time on their websites. They want you to experience this alone, because addiction thrives when it hides in the shadows. I offer a safe, secure space to examine it in the light.
Together we will examine your relationship to your addiction. I do not practice from an “abstinence-only” model, but instead focus on what YOU want. What does the problem substance or behavior mean to you? What purpose does it serve in your life? What, if anything, would you want to replace it?
What is important is that you feel like you are in control of your own life, and not being led by forces that have spent millions researching how to take this control away from you. Don't fight this battle alone.

Bonny Kaman Li
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP
Addiction and substance use therapy helps clients understand the underlying patterns driving their use, not just the behavior itself. I support clients in building sustainable coping strategies and repairing the relationships affected along the way.
