Addictions or Substance Abuse
Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
Struggling with addiction often means battling shame, isolation, and the overwhelming feeling that you're trapped in patterns you can't break. I understands that addiction is rarely just about substances or behaviors—it's often rooted in deeper emotional pain, trauma, or limiting beliefs that developed as survival mechanisms.
Using evidence-based approaches like CBT to address thought patterns that fuel addictive behaviors, DBT skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and EMDR to process underlying trauma, I help clients understand the "why" behind their addiction while building practical tools for lasting recovery.
I create a completely non-judgmental space where you can explore your relationship with addiction without fear of criticism. Whether you're seeking recovery from substance use, behavioral addictions, or supporting a loved one through their journey, I will work with you to develop healthy coping strategies, rebuild self-worth, and create a life where recovery feels sustainable and fulfilling.
Recovery is possible, and you don't have to face it alone. Together, we will work toward breaking free from the cycle and reclaiming the life you deserve.

Your addiction is protecting you from something. Often it helps to explore the question: what are you not wanting to feel ? Together we can unpack what the root cause of your addiction is, and find ways to help you confront these challenges head on. You are not alone, and you do not need to go through this recovery journey on your own.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
I specialize in treating and repairing addictive patterns by addressing both the behaviors and the underlying emotional, relational, and nervous system drivers that sustain them. My work focuses on reducing compulsive use, interrupting cycles of shame and secrecy, and rebuilding self-regulation, accountability, and self-trust. Through structured therapeutic intervention, nervous system stabilization, and relational repair, clients are supported in creating lasting recovery and meaningful change—at a pace that respects their lived experience while remaining oriented toward sustainable resolution of addiction.
