Nicklas Ehrlich
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, RCC (#0843), RSW (#11561), Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Life-Coach, Hypnotherapist, Advanced Neurofeedback Trainer
Addictions/substance abuse is often an unconscious coping strategy to deal with trauma, emotional/physical pain and anything that overwhelms the central nervous system/brain. Once the central nervous system/brain are taken out of fight-flight-freeze-collapse (survival mode), balance can occur.

Alain Langlais

My approach to counselling is to respect and value the uniqueness of every individual and where they are. I work to support them using creativity, with warmth, understanding and at times, a touch of humour when appropriate.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In addressing the challenges of addictions or substance abuse, I offer a holistic and personalized approach, grounded in compassion and understanding. Incorporating Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, I work alongside clients to explore the root causes of addiction, foster emotional resilience, and develop effective coping strategies. This comprehensive method allows us to address both the behavioral aspects of substance abuse and its underlying emotional and psychological dimensions. By focusing on self-awareness and self-compassion, I help clients build a foundation for lasting recovery, guiding them towards healthier habits and thought patterns. Our journey together is designed to empower individuals to regain control of their lives, making positive changes that support both sobriety and overall well-being. For those seeking a path out of addiction and towards a more fulfilling life, I am here to support your steps towards healing and self-discovery, offering the tools and insights needed for transformation.
