Addictions or 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.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Zain Abideen
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), BSc, MACP
Struggles with substance use often develop as a way of coping with stress, emotional pain, or unresolved experiences. In therapy we explore the patterns and underlying triggers that drive these behaviours while building healthier ways to manage emotions and regain control. The focus is on long term change rather than temporary symptom relief.

Gui Mansilla
Registered Psychotherapist, Lawyer (Arg) M.Div (USA) Reg. Psychotherapist (CA) Coach (Ca)
My journey with addiction is deeply personal, having been marked by the impact of my father's functional addiction from a young age. Despite the challenges it posed to our family, his struggles provided a unique perspective on the insidious nature of this illness—one that systematically dismantles lives, relationships, self-esteem, and even financial well-being.
While some may find it surprising, I consider it a fortune to have experienced the profound effects of addiction within my family. This experience became a catalyst for my healing and understanding of this intricate and complex illness. Today, as a specialized therapist and coach in addiction, I draw upon my personal journey to not only care for myself but also guide countless others through their path to recovery.
Working with addiction is powerful because, behind the façade of this illness, attempting to soothe deep-seated pain, there is always a remarkable human being waiting to actualize their full potential. I view addiction as an illness that, with proper care, can transform into a blessing, unleashing newfound superpowers. Those who have survived the grip of addiction, embarked on a healing journey and acquired wisdom and tools can become agents of positive change in the world.
Witnessing individuals transition from the depths of addiction to a purposeful and passionate life is akin to witnessing a superpower in action. The trauma, pain, and neglect that fueled the addiction often become the driving force behind a life dedicated to health, well-being, and positive impact.
Approaching this work requires delicacy and depth. The individual undertaking the healing journey needs perseverance, a thorough understanding, and decisive action to transform the dark tunnel of addiction into a sea of light. It would be my utmost honour to guide you through this challenging and isolating experience, helping you emerge into a world of your own creation—a world filled with choices that fulfill your life and enrich the lives of those around you.
