Substance Abuse
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
At Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center, we approach substance use with compassion and clarity. We understand that addiction is often rooted in pain, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and unmet needs rather than simply willpower or choice. Our work focuses on uncovering the underlying patterns driving substance use, strengthening coping and regulation skills, and rebuilding trust within oneself and relationships. We provide a non-judgmental space where clients can explore their story, develop sustainable recovery strategies, and move toward lasting freedom and stability.

Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, LLB, CSAT
I help clients facing both substance and process addictions, including sex and love addiction. In our sessions, we'll explore your experiences and work together to process pain, find clarity, and begin healing—drawing on both my Gestalt training and 15 years in criminal defense. Many clients begin to feel relief and clarity within the first few sessions.
