Substance Abuse
Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
Addiction such as substance use and alcohol addiction can leave an individual feeling alone and powerless falling into the addictive behaviour patterns more and more. This can lead to the deterioration of an individual’s health and well being by disrupting relationships, daily living routines, and financial stability while compromising quality of life. Therapy for addiction helps the individual understand the motives behind their behaviour and develop a treatment plan. I can help to break these dysfunctional behavior patterns by providing a safe space and emotional support to explore the addiction. Often individuals who have substance use issues may have comorbid depression or anxiety and may find it difficult to cope with stress, grief, relational discourse, and life transitions. I can support you in breaking dysfunctional patterns in dealing with overwhelming emotions and learn healthy coping strategies to build self-efficacy, improve distress tolerance, and change negative thinking to create a positive belief system.

Substance Abuse
Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
Something took hold, and now it feels like it's running the show. Whether it's alcohol, substances, or a compulsion you can't quite name, the shame and exhaustion of fighting yourself is often harder than the thing itself. Having been in a similar place myself, I resonate with that. I work with people navigating addiction and recovery not by focusing on what's wrong with them, but by understanding what their behaviour has been trying to do for them, and building something more sustainable in its place.
