Substance Abuse
Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Addictions are behaviours in which we engage to enable us to cope with deep emotional pain, usually stemming from some form of trauma in our lives. Social and environmental factors can also play a role in developing addictions. Addictions include the use of alcohol, drugs, sex, pornography, gambling, smoking, shopping, etc. as a way to provide temporary relief from the painful thoughts and negative feelings that arise within us. Over time addictions establish themselves as the go-to relief to cope with our emotions, but at the same time render us less functional. Our relationships, work, and homelife begin to suffer from the consequences of the addiction. Talking therapy can help to uncover and resolve the pain that lies beneath addiction and over time help us to reconnect with our inner selves and to discover and develop behavioural responses to replace the addictive behaviour.

Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
During my time in the NHS, I spent several years working with people struggling with issues around addictions. I specialise in developing understanding of the deeper purpose of the addiction; what it's origins are and what it's attempting to heal. This understanding can lead to a greater sense of freedom and opportunity.

Substance Abuse
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.
