Thomas Reiner Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Diploma of Counselling (AIPC)
There is no easy fix for substance use. My approach is influenced by Gabor Maté's compassionate inquiry. That is, we will explore the things that actually work in regard to my clients' substance use. We will also look at things that have led to the substance use in the first place. This is usually followed by looking at different forms of harm reduction and the search for possible alternatives.

Addiction can leave you feeling caught in a cycle you know isn't helping, yet find difficult to change. You may be struggling with alcohol, substances or behaviours that have begun affecting your relationships, confidence or everyday life. Together, we can understand what's driving the pattern, gain clarity and develop practical ways to regain greater control and move forward.

Substance Abuse
Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
Addiction is a physiological process. It doesn't happen because you are 'weak', 'defective', or in some way inferior. In addressing addictions, I draw upon physiology and neurobiology to understand how it happens and how it can be overcome. Acknowledging the addiction and the role it is playing in your life is often the first step in addressing what lies underneath it: for example, depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma. I then use my integrative psychotherapy approach to collaborate with you in a unique treatment approach that fits your exact needs.
