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.

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.
