Psychologist, MAPS, B Psych ECowan, GradDipCounselMurdoch,
In the case of addictions, I will often look at what came first, the Addiction or Substance Abuse or the problems or difficulties that may flow from that? I would also look at what has been tried before, to seek to deal with the substance abuse or addiction?
Substance dependence may adversely impact your relationships, family, physical health, mental health, employment, studies or finances. Effective therapy aims to resolve your uncertainty around change and address any mental health issues that may be attached to your substance dependence such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem or past trauma.
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.
Understanding that each journey through addiction is personal and complex, I am here to offer you a compassionate and tailored approach to overcoming the challenges of addiction and substance abuse. I recognise the courage to seek help and the vulnerability of sharing your story. It's my commitment to provide you with a supportive space where you feel understood and valued, guiding you through your healing process. By combining the best of scientific research with holistic practices, I aim to help you navigate your path to recovery, build resilience, and rediscover a sense of self that feels renewed and authentic. Together, we'll work towards overcoming addiction and thriving beyond it.

There is no easy fix for substance use. My approach is influenced by Gabor Maté's compassionate inquiry. That is, we will explore the things that actually work in regard to my clients' substance use. We will also look at things that have led to the substance use in the first place. This is usually followed by looking at some form of harm reduction and the search for possible alternatives.
