Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Substance use can sometimes become a way to cope with stress, trauma, anxiety, grief, loneliness, or emotional overwhelm. Over time, it may begin to create shame, secrecy, relationship strain, or conflict with the life you want to live. I offer a nonjudgmental space to explore your relationship with substances, understand your triggers, and build healthier, more intentional ways of coping.

Makai Livingstone
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)
Substance use often develops as a way of coping with pain, disconnection, or overwhelming emotion. Rather than focusing only on the behaviour, I work with you to understand what it's protecting you from and to build a relationship with yourself that doesn't require it. Using a compassionate, relational approach, we'll explore triggers, patterns, and healthier ways to cope and connect.
