Substance Abuse
Sharron Carson
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Having an addiction is not a sign of weakness or lack of character. In fact, reaching out for help and being open to change takes a great deal of strength. My approach is one of openness and non-judgment. I follow a harm reduction approach meaning that I respect my clients right to set their own goals which will then guide our sessions. I appreciate that not everyone is ready to, nor wants to, work towards full sobriety. Harm reduction is about reducing the negative impact that substance use has on that person’s well-being and life. I strongly believe that any positive change is a success. If you think that my approach would work for you, please book a free consultation.

Watras Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
Addiction can be a scary thing that is often surrounded by ambiguity and confusion: why do I continue to use when I know it is bad for me? Why do I want to use in the first place? Why can't I seem to stop using and why can't I change? In working with clients, step 1 of our work is figuring out the answers to these questions and figuring out why addiction occurs in the first place. After this, we explore tools, resources, and therapies that will best work for clients in helping them create the changes they need and to promote the lifestyle they want.

Substance Abuse
Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
Through my work with individuals in recovery and involvement with Alcoholics Anonymous, I have supported clients navigating the challenges of rehabilitation and sobriety. Recovery is not simply about abstaining from substances—it is also about understanding and working through feelings of isolation and loneliness, relationships, developing resilience, and rebuilding a sense of faith in oneself. My goal is to help clients move toward empowerment, learning to cope not through substances, but through healthier pathways that support overall wellbeing.
