Bipolar Disorder Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Greg Rennie has over 10 years experience working as an addiction specialist in top addiction treatment centres in Ontario, Canada. He utilizes the same approaches as "rehabs" do but in an outpatient, one to one environment. I have helped many clients overcome why they go back again and again to the destructive behaviour of gambling but can't seem to stay away from it. Greg is in recovery himself (30 years) and has been challenged with the why of addiction and why we use an external means to escape from our core issues. Contact him at greg@bipolar-addiction.com

Sierra Goldfinger
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
As a therapist, I know how challenging it can be to manage addiction. Addiction can impact the quality of our lives, our relationships, and our connection to ourselves. Therapy can provide a safe space to navigate addiction and explore what you wish for in relation to the substance or behaviour. Discussing the addiction can also provide us useful clues as to what roots the addiction, allowing us to navigate the core issue at hand and explore preferred coping strategies.

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

Ryta Marie Peschka
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
While gambling 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 surrounding gambling I will support you in the setting and achieving of personal goals.

Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Gambling can become a way to manage stress, escape painful emotions, seek excitement, or cope with difficult life circumstances. Over time, it can create secrecy, financial strain, shame, and relationship conflict. Therapy can help you understand triggers, interrupt harmful patterns, build coping strategies, and reconnect with your values and goals.

Tony Miller
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD, RP
ontrary to what is believed, addiction usually starts with a positive impact on a person’s life and even sometimes saves their life. However, as the time goes by, this creative adjustment becomes outdated and turns into a problem. Therefore, working with addiction should not be about illuminating the symptoms or the manifestations of the addiction, but rather trying to understand the reasons underlying the addiction and the function that it used to serve. A successful recovery is only possible through understanding and even respecting the addiction. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.
