Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
Addiction is driven by the psyche which is trying to salve a troublesome problem that we may not even be aware of and is trying to help us to survive. Addiction hijacks our self and we need to get back in control of our own lives and destinies. An addiction is often more compelling than anything else including family, earning a living and can wreck our life.. Some substances also cause a physical addiction that can be managed and reduced with medical help. Once we determine and understand why this addiction exists, we can start to process it and loosen its grip on us.

Counsellor/Therapist, addiction and mental Health , psychosocial intervention , anxiety and stress management
A substance use disorder is more than a physical dependence on drugs or alcohol. Even after detox, when your body is no longer dependent, you’re at high risk for relapse. Certain psychological and social factors can be powerful triggers that lead to relapse:
Stress, especially sudden life stresses
Cues in the environment, like visiting a neighborhood
Social networks, like spending time with friends who continue to use
These things can create a strong ongoing urge to use again. Counseling helps you escape cravings and learn to manage what life throws at you without drugs or alcohol.

The Art Of Healing
Marriage and Family Therapist, RTC, CT
I support individuals navigating challenges with substance use from a compassionate, non-judgmental, and trauma-informed perspective. Rather than viewing addiction as a personal failure, I understand it as a coping response—often rooted in stress, emotional pain, or past experiences. My goal is to help you explore the underlying patterns and needs that substance use may be meeting, while gently building healthier, more sustainable ways of coping.
Using a blend of evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and nervous system regulation, we work together to increase awareness of triggers, reduce cravings, and strengthen your ability to respond differently in moments of stress. I also support clients in rebuilding their relationship with themselves—fostering self-compassion, emotional resilience, and a sense of control.
Whether you are looking to reduce use, maintain recovery, or better understand your relationship with substances, this space is designed to meet you where you are. Change doesn’t happen through shame—it happens through awareness, support, and intentional steps forward.

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. He has helped many clients overcome why they go back again and again to their substance or behaviour of choice and can't seem to stay clean and sober. As someone who is in recovery himself (30 years) he also has been challenged with the why of addiction as his clients have used an external means to escape from their core issues. He is trained in Psychedelic- Assisted Therapy and affiliated with Ketamind Health in Markham, Ontario. Contact him at greg@bipolar-addiction.com
