Substance Abuse
Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
Addiction is a physiological process. It doesn't happen because you are 'weak', 'defective', or in some way inferior. In addressing addictions, I draw upon physiology and neurobiology to understand how it happens and how it can be overcome. Acknowledging the addiction and the role it is playing in your life is often the first step in addressing what lies underneath it: for example, depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma. I then use my integrative psychotherapy approach to collaborate with you in a unique treatment approach that fits your exact needs.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Addiction can feel like a battle you're fighting alone, caught between wanting to change and feeling pulled back into old patterns. If substances have taken more from your life than you'd like to admit, let's work together to help you find a different way forward.
The first step in working with addiction is understanding that this isn't a matter of willpower or moral failing. It's a way your mind and body learned to cope with pain. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore what's underneath the addiction, and build a foundation of accountability and self-compassion that actually holds. My approach honours both the seriousness of recovery and your capacity to heal.
You don't have to do this alone. Let's take the first step toward freedom and a life that feels more like your own.

The misuse of alcohol and other drugs can have a damaging impact on individuals, families and communities. Therapies we utilise include behavioural therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and motivational interviewing. We look at at the whole person to support, evaluate and treat as well as any co-occurring mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
Some of the women I work with came to therapy for something else entirely, the loneliness, the exhaustion of building a life abroad, and found, a few sessions in, that alcohol or another substance had quietly become the way they were coping. Others already know that's part of what brought them here. Either way, I don't work from a place of judgement. Being far from the structures and relationships that used to hold you together can make any coping habit harder to see and harder to put down. We look at what the substance is actually doing for you, not only at stopping.
