Shanna Budzinsky
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
It can be hard to know where to begin when dealing with addiction because its roots can run deep into the fabric of our lives. When working with individuals who experience addictions, I first seek to understand and appreciate each person’s story and work to provide a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where healing can begin. My own experiences with addiction and recovery have helped me to understand the healing power of compassion, acceptance and encouragement. Reach out today to learn more about my approach and your journey to healing.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed perspective, addiction is understood to be a manifestation of unresolved trauma for which the addiction is a coping method. I work to help clients better understand both their addiction and their trauma, and how to resolve both by learning more healthy and helpful ways of coping and by doing trauma processing. As Gabor Mate says "do not ask why the addiction, ask why the pain".

Cindy Jennings
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, RP
Addiction rarely affects just one person—it impacts the entire relationship. When your partner struggles with alcohol or substance use, you may find yourself trying to manage the chaos, protect the relationship, or prevent things from getting worse. Over time this can lead to exhaustion, resentment, confusion, and a sense that no matter what you do, nothing seems to change.
I specialize in supporting partners and spouses of people living with addiction. Together we explore how addiction is affecting your relationship and identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Many partners feel responsible for fixing the problem or worry that setting limits will make things worse. Therapy can help you develop healthier ways of responding while also protecting your own well-being.
Using approaches such as the Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) model, I help partners learn practical strategies to communicate more effectively, support positive change, and reduce the cycle of conflict and crisis that addiction often creates.
You don’t have to carry this alone. Support can help you regain your footing, strengthen your voice, and find more constructive ways to navigate addiction within the relationship.

Michael Greene
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling Psychology, Registered Psychologist College of Psychotherapists of Ontario
Addiction is a way of coping with your pain. It is a medication that is self destructive. I will help you befriend and become conscious of the origins of your pain. You will learn how to listen to your feelings rather than run away from them. We will work together to give you different coping devices. I will help you see yourself in a way that you can have compassion for who you are and what happened to you rather than be unkind and cruel to yourself.

Shane Smyth
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, OACCPP
I have worked in the area of addiction for over 8 years and I am able to work with people to identify the chain of events that leads to engaging in addictive or compulsive behaviours. Sometimes exploring underlying issues such as trauma, anxiety, relationship issues or depression is part of the work with addiction and sometimes it is more helpful to explore behavioural changes and work with someone to mindfully change their habits. I do not believe in stigmatising or shaming addiction as I have had my own struggles with addiction and compulsive behaviours. The first step is understanding with a sense of compassion.
