Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
As a survivor of addiction myself, I understand the shame, desperation, and seemingly endless cycle that keeps you trapped. My specialized approach to addiction recovery goes beyond willpower and surface-level strategies. Using Subconscious Dynamics™, I help you identify and transform the underlying emotional patterns, triggers, and beliefs that drive addictive behaviours. This holistic, medication-free method addresses the root causes - trauma, unresolved pain, and limiting beliefs - rather than just managing symptoms. My clients often experience breakthrough moments within weeks, breaking free from addictions to alcohol, drugs, and gambling that have controlled their lives for years. Recovery is possible, and I have the personal experience and professional tools to guide you there.

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.
