Addictions or Substance Abuse
Catherine Dwyer
Registered Social Worker, MSW RSW
When people start to question their alcohol use, they often google whether or not they fit the criteria for being an alcoholic. But the better questions to ask yourself are: what is my relationship to alcohol like? how does it impact my life? is it getting in the way of my leading a meaningful, fulfilled, balanced, healthy life? how do I feel about that? If you're questioning your relationship with alcohol at all - whether you're sober curious or realize that you have an addiction, I can help. I provide alternative approaches to more traditional 12 step models such as AA for sober curiosity, problematic alcohol use and addiction. Together we can gently and compassionately explore where you're at, where you'd like to be and how to get there.

Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
Have you been having a hard time coping with stress and unpleasant emotions? Do you feel on edge? Has using substances been helpful in this regard? Would you rather drink or smoke when you want to and not because you feel you need to? If so, then please reach out. Often substance misuse is a bandaid solution to deeper feelings, experiences and thoughts and feelings that long to be explored. Together, with your therapist, you can develop other coping skills so that you do not feel as dependent on ways of coping that may not be serving you anymore. Reach out today to work with Vade who has extensive experience in addictions, trauma, family systems, hypnotherapy, and inner child work.
We prioritize rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings that are coming up for you today. You are not your difficulties and so it is just as important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, we would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation by phone where we can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life.
