Substance Abuse
Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Substance use can become a way to cope with anxiety, stress, trauma, emotional pain, loneliness, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Over time, it may start creating shame, secrecy, relationship strain, or a sense of being stuck in patterns that no longer fit your values. In therapy, we can explore the role substances have been playing in your life and work toward greater awareness, emotional regulation, and more intentional choices. My approach is compassionate, non-shaming, and grounded in helping you move toward a life that feels more steady, meaningful, and aligned with what matters to you.

Everlight recovery
Counsellor/Therapist, LPC, spiritual certified, D.D.I.V, D.H.L
My approach to addiction therapy is rooted in the understanding that healing from addiction involves more than just breaking a habit—it requires addressing the deeper emotional, spiritual, and personal wounds that often lie beneath. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore the roots of their struggle, reconnect with their inner strength, and rebuild a sense of purpose and self-worth. Using a spiritually integrated framework, I support clients in identifying patterns, finding meaning in their journey, and developing new ways to cope that honor the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Whether you're in recovery, just beginning, or seeking ongoing support, I walk beside you with empathy, encouragement, and respect.
