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.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
Addiction is never just about the substance—it’s about pain, protection, and survival.
Whether you're navigating recovery, in active addiction, or somewhere in between, I offer a nonjudgmental space to explore the deeper roots beneath the behavior. With a background in front-line work in addiction and trauma treatment centers, I understand how complex and layered this journey can be. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you build compassionate relationships with the parts of you that turn to substances for relief, connection, or escape. Together, we’ll work to heal the wounds underneath and reconnect you with the strength, clarity, and Self-energy already within you.

Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: Emotion-focused, CBT, motivational interviewing-informed strategies, trauma-informed care.
I explore what emotional needs, stressors, or experiences may be contributing to substance use or other addictive behaviours. Therapy focuses on increasing awareness of triggers, developing healthier coping strategies, and strengthening motivation for change. When a higher level of addiction treatment is required, I support appropriate referral and collaborative care.

Christopher Cannon
Counsellor/Therapist, LPC, CAS, SEP
Addiction often starts as a way to cope with pain that felt unbearable. I know this firsthand from my own recovery, and I hold a Colorado Certified Addiction Specialist credential. Together we look at what alcohol, drugs, or compulsive behaviors have been doing for you, and use somatic and relational work to help your nervous system find steadier ways to feel okay. Whether your goal is abstinence or harm reduction, I’ll meet you where you are.
