Nicole Moss
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C.S.P.S.S
Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying the weight of addiction or substance abuse on your own. My goal is to support you as I genuinely feel that everyone holds their own map to healing, however, many often need help navigating their path forward. Whether you’re also working on trauma recovery, healing from abuse, or working through the stages of grief, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am grateful to be that source of support for current and new clients. I help people create, enforce, and maintain boundaries that may have once felt impossible to implement, giving them space to feel safer, more empowered, and more connected to themselves and others. I work from an eclectic approach, believing there is no one-size-fits-all path to therapy. Together we can help you break free from limiting patterns and beliefs.

Robert M. Lee
Registered Psychotherapist
I approach addiction and substance use not as a moral failing but as an attempt to regulate pain, trauma, or inner conflict. Using mindfulness, depth psychology, and somatic awareness, we explore the underlying patterns driving compulsive behaviors. Rather than focusing solely on abstinence, our work centers on understanding the emotional and psychological roots of addiction—helping you develop self-awareness, resilience, and healthier ways of relating to yourself. Whether you're navigating substance use, dependency, or seeking integration after psychedelic experiences, therapy provides a space for healing and transformation.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
Addiction is never just about the substance—it’s about pain, protection, and survival.
Whether you're navigating recovery, in active addiction, or somewhere in between, I offer a nonjudgmental space to explore the deeper roots beneath the behavior. With a background in front-line work in addiction and trauma treatment centers, I understand how complex and layered this journey can be. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you build compassionate relationships with the parts of you that turn to substances for relief, connection, or escape. Together, we’ll work to heal the wounds underneath and reconnect you with the strength, clarity, and Self-energy already within you.

Addiction is often a way of coping with unresolved emotions, trauma, or deep-seated struggles. I provide a judgment-free and supportive space where clients can explore the underlying causes of their substance use and build healthier coping strategies. Using IFS, EMDR, and Mindfulness, I help individuals address cravings, emotional regulation, and behavioral patterns, guiding them toward sustainable recovery and self-empowerment.

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.
