Maor Bernshtein, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
When addiction takes hold, it’s easy to feel trapped in a cycle you don’t fully understand. You may know what you want to change, but still feel powerless to stop. This can leave you questioning your own worth. I am committed to helping you uncover the deeper causes of your struggles and regain control of your life. In therapy, you can work to identify the triggers that lead to substance use. The goal of therapy is to help you make clearer, more informed choices about your use of substances or alcohol and to live a life that is more manageable and congruent with your goals. Together, we’ll understand the root of your struggles, unpack the patterns that keep them going, work through shame without judgment, and build healthier ways to cope, make clearer choices, and regain control. Visit pathwaytoself.ca to book a free 20-minute consultation and ask any questions you have.

Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Substance use can affect far more than the relationship you have with substances. You may find yourself feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in patterns that are difficult to change, or struggling with the impact substance use has had on your relationships, work, or family life. Therapy can provide a non-judgmental space to better understand what is underneath these patterns, build healthier coping strategies, and reconnect with yourself and the people who matter to you.
Savanna works with adults, healthcare professionals, first responders, and families navigating substance use, stress, anxiety, emotional regulation, and relationship challenges. Her warm, collaborative, and holistic approach helps you explore the experiences and patterns contributing to substance use while building greater self-awareness, resilience, and healthier ways of coping.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel on edge, overwhelmed, or driven to escape uncomfortable feelings? Many people struggling with substance use or compulsive behaviors learned early on to push emotions down or manage them through coping strategies that once made sense. You may have been taught that anger is unacceptable, sadness is weakness, or vulnerability isn’t safe—so substances or behaviors became a way to get through.
These emotions themselves aren’t the problem. They’re natural, meaningful signals. What matters is how we respond when they show up. Together, we can gently explore your experiences, understand the role addiction has played, and develop more intentional ways of coping—so you can feel more grounded, in control, and lighter over time. You feel things deeply for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

Ryta Marie Peschka
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
While substance use typically begins as recreational activity it can become habit forming and often develops addictive behaviors interfering with other areas of our lives, such as relationships, jobs, and finances. To increase awareness and insight into the reasons for using, I offer evidence-based treatment while providing you with options along the continuum of the Harm Reduction approach towards abstinence. We will explore any underlying emotional needs and relationships. By gaining insight to any ambivalent thoughts and feelings around changing patterns of substance misuse I will support you in the setting and achieving of personal goals.

Malika Chandra
Registered Psychotherapist, MPS, RP (Qualifying)
I view addiction not just as a problem but an unhelpful solution to a different problem. Often, we turn to addiction to get away from something else. It is that “something else” that we would try to understand in our sessions. We will then work to find healthier ways of coping to replace the addiction. I also specialize in helping reduce cannabis use, which may not be addictive as a substance but has addictive effects. It is never too late to start this journey. Call today to book a free consultation.
