Addictions or Substance Abuse
Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
Addiction often develops as a coping mechanism for dealing with unresolved trauma. Substances can provide temporary relief from emotional pain, anxiety and depression. However, reliance on these substances can lead to a dependency and exacerbate a person's challenges. By providing psycho education to my client's about trauma and addiction we can help demystify your experience and this provides a framework for understanding your challenges. Psychoeducation can cover topics like how trauma affects the brain, the cycle of addiction and coping mechanisms. Knowledge empowers my clients to engage actively in your recovery. Mindfulness and grounding exercises can help you stay present and manage any overwhelming emotions, reducing anxiety and enhancing self-awareness. These techniques can help you cope with triggers and stressors. I encourage you to build a support network as this can provide emotional backing and practical assistance, reinforcing the therapeutic process. Working with addiction in a trauma informed way is a compassionate and effective approach that addresses the root cause of your addiction.

During my time in the NHS, I spent several years working with people struggling with issues around addictions.

This understanding can lead to a greater sense of freedom and opportunity.

Plymouth is one of England's great naval cities — home to HMNB Devonport, the largest naval base in Western Europe — and its therapy community is substantially shaped by demand from military families navigating deployment stress, trauma, and the emotional challenges of service life. The city's proud maritime history coexists with significant post-industrial hardship in some neighborhoods, and therapists frequently address depression, economic stress, and the psychological weight of communities that have carried long-term deprivation. Livewell Southwest provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving Mannamead, Peverell, and the Hoe. The University of Plymouth's psychology and counseling programs maintain active clinical training pipelines into the local community.
