Using alcohol, drugs, and gambling serves as a coping strategy for issues like stress, anxiety, depression, emotional upset, trauma, or managing ADHD. Life’s challenges may trigger a cycle of emotional distress, where one may use alcohol, drugs, and gambling to manage overwhelming feelings. In session, the focus will be exploring the underlying emotions, thoughts, and behaviours that trigger this cycle. Whether aiming for no use or moderate use, I offer a non-judgmental, compassionate space to understand your core issues and assist with fostering a lifestyle change to meet your chosen goal.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist with 23 years of experience in the field of addictions and mental health. I work with adults, couples, and families navigating the complexities of substance use, co-occurring mental health concerns, particularly ADHD. My approach is grounded in Emotion Focused, Cognitive Behavioural and Dialectical Therapy
If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn, you're not alone. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can explore your struggles safely. Healing starts with understanding one's emotions and connection—reach out when you're ready. Together, we can work toward meaningful, lasting change in your life.
