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.

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.

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.

Addiction is NOT a choice. Substance use is usually bourne out of traumatic experiences and is a coping mechanism to escape from them. As it's not a good coping mechanism, this "escape" often becomes an additional problem to deal with. To work with an addiction, the best way is to target the issues that created the addiction itself, meanwhile learning practical and realistic tools to manage the addiction and emotions. You don't have to live on a rollercoaster of shame, guilt, and regret. Change is never easy but that doesn't mean it's impossible; everything worth anything takes effort and commitment in order to achieve success. When you're finally sick and tired of the burdens and having the substances control you, let's start working to take your life back.
