Substance Abuse
Thomas Reiner Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Diploma of Counselling (AIPC)
There is no easy fix for substance use. My approach is influenced by Gabor Maté's compassionate inquiry. That is, we will explore the things that actually work in regard to my clients' substance use. We will also look at things that have led to the substance use in the first place. This is usually followed by looking at different forms of harm reduction and the search for possible alternatives.

The Gold Coast's reputation as a lifestyle destination can obscure real mental health challenges tied to precarious hospitality employment, seasonal work patterns, and the psychological pressure of a culture that prizes physical appearance and outdoor performance. The city draws many young people relocating from elsewhere in Australia, and therapists frequently work with the isolation and adjustment challenges that come with starting fresh in a new city without established networks. Gold Coast Hospital and Health Service provides public mental health resources, while a growing private therapy community serves residents across Burleigh Heads, Broadbeach, and Robina. The city's proximity to Brisbane means some residents also access specialist care in the larger metro.
