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.

Belfast's complex history — encompassing decades of sectarian conflict during the Troubles, the Good Friday Agreement, and ongoing peace process work — shapes a therapy culture in which community trauma, intergenerational grief, and political identity are recurring clinical themes. The city has made significant strides in mental health awareness, and a growing generation of therapists trained through Queen's University Belfast and Ulster University brings contemporary approaches to a city still processing historical wounds. Belfast Health and Social Care Trust provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community concentrated in South Belfast and the university quarter. The relative normalization of therapy-seeking among younger Belfast residents represents a meaningful cultural shift from earlier generations.
