Addictions or Substance Abuse
Rose laure Agbazan
Hypnotherapist, Clinical hypnotherapist, Clinical Aromatherapist CAHP
Addictive patterns often begin as protection. Instead of fighting yourself, we gently explore what you’ve been trying to soothe. From there, we build inner safety so you don’t have to escape your own emotions anymore.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
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.

Shay Galamiton
Counsellor/Therapist, RPC, MPCC
I work with individuals experiencing substance use and addictive behaviors in a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space. My approach integrates evidence-based strategies to explore underlying patterns, strengthen coping skills, prevent relapse, and address co-occurring emotional or behavioural concerns, supporting sustainable recovery, resilience, and long-term wellness.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counsellor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
As a specialist in Addictions and Substance Abuse, I have over 35 years clean and sober myself. I believe that even though there is brain involvement in addictive behaviours, addiction is primarily a choice that people make to not have to deal with the reality of their situations - and that the addict can make a different choice. Family members often don't understand the difference between ENABLING and HELPING when they try to support the addicts they love. When families can stop enabling their addict and start helping instead, the addict then has a better chance of recovery from addiction. When addiction is in a family, everyone is affected and everyone needs to heal.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
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.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Kristen Bailey Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
I have worked extensively in Substance abuse, both in organisations and in my private practice. Substance abuse and addiction is rooted in deep shame and I have seen how an approach combined with psychological tools that support managing urges and tolerating difficult feelings with processing that supports shame reduction and self forgiveness/acceptance to be very valuable.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Kim Alscher
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RCC
All of us engage in addictive behaviours at different points in our lives; they often begin as functional strategies to help us cope. It is when these behaviours start to take hold—demanding our energy, attention, and emotional bandwidth—that they shift into patterns that no longer serve us. Behaviours such as substance use, disordered eating, overworking, or digital escape can temporarily numb feelings like shame, guilt, or emptiness. In our work together, we focus on identifying patterns that keep you stuck, strengthening emotional regulation, and building sustainable behavioural changes that align with your goals and values.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Ferzana Jamani
Counsellor/Therapist, BA, RTC
Addiction is rarely just about the substance—it is often a response to deep pain and a need for protection. Whether you are in recovery, currently struggling, or somewhere in between, I offer a compassionate and judgment-free space to explore what lies beneath the behavior. With experience working on the front lines of addiction and trauma treatment, I understand how complex this path can be. Together, we will gently explore the parts of you that turn to substances for relief or escape, supporting healing and helping you reconnect with your inner strength, clarity, and wholeness.
