Addictions or Substance Abuse
Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have worked with both young people & adults with substance misuse/abuse issues & those with diagnosed addictive behaviour. Using motivational interviewing & elements of CBT, I work with a person-centred & strengths based approach to tailor treatment to the personal needs of the individual & their significant others. I understand that recovery can be difficult & how important it is to move at the pace of the indiviudal seeking support. I work on the basis that relapse is part of the process & as discouraging as this can be, it is important to use these set backs as a learning opportunity to better enable the individual to make recovery stick the next time around.

Daniel Martin
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist, MAPS, MAAPi (AU), LPC (USA), NCC, CAIMHP
For the substance abuse crowd my default mode is to go with a 12-step model since that is what many of the treatment programs I have worked in used. Though for those more on the earlier stages of addiction I may work with clients on switching back to responsible use. I am a Certified Addiction Informed Mental Health Professional.

Relationship Mentor and Coach
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MNZAC
In our couples therapy we provide a tailored approach that addresses the unique challenges faced by couples dealing with addiction issues. We recognize that addiction doesn't only affect the individual but also significantly impacts relationships. Our therapy focuses on fostering communication, rebuilding trust, and developing healthy coping mechanisms for both partners. Through joint and individual sessions, we explore the dynamics of addiction within the relationship, offer support in understanding each other's struggles, and create a shared path towards recovery and healing. This program is designed to strengthen the bond between partners, providing them with tools to support each other effectively through the journey of overcoming addiction and building a healthier, more resilient partnership.
