Substance Use Therapists in Campbellford, ON

Now Accepting New Clients As Couples or Individuals! Hello, thank you for taking a moment to consider therapy with me. I hold a warm, unconditional, positive regard for each client and help them hold the same for themselves. I work from a practical, purpose-driven set of goals that the client decides upon, and we move toward achieving them together. I'm experienced in helping both individuals and couples who are going through a range of life circumstances that include mental health and addictions concerns along with relationship struggles. I work with clients closely in helping them become the healthiest version of themselves.

Currently Accepting New Clients (in-person or video) - Are you in a place where something’s not feeling right and it’s time for a change? Perhaps you want to reduce anxiety and stress. Or maybe you’re tired of being held back by feeling “not good enough.” Or you want to improve relationships with friends, loved ones, and co-workers. You might not even be able to put a finger on what’s wrong, but you’ve reached the point where you feel it’s time to reach out for help. You are not alone.

I specialize in the integrated treatment approach of Psychotherapy, Art Therapy and Occupational therapy that draws on Adlerian, Mindfulness and DBT theories. I see children through to adults and I am LGBTQ friendly and informed. I am registered under provincial legislation. This means that I am required to uphold a code of ethics that is subject to scrutiny by a regulatory body, I am a member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and the College of Occupational Therapists of Ontario and I am fully insured.

As humans we want to know we have a purpose, strengths, love and relationships. When these ideas are shaken up it can be challenging to move forward. Working with me as your Therapist can renew your sense of meeting your own needs. Feeling safe, and supported is a fundamental need and if you aren’t feeling that I can help bring that in to your life. You don’t need to know what help you need to visit me; we can find and explore that together.

If you're feeling disconnected, distracted, and detached from your life, it may be time to look at why. Why can't I connect, why am I not able to just "get over" my past, or why does it all feel so meaningless? Maybe there are other questions, like “what am I doing with my life” or “who do I want to be?”. It’s okay to take time that's just for you, to look at your life and see both the big picture and explore the often overlooked details. With the right support, you can feel more present, connected, and in control of your life.

I hold compassion for all you have been through and where you are now. I approach therapy as a collaboration between you and I, where you are respected and honoured and your strengths are highlighted. We work at a safe pace in line with your needs. I recognize how hard it is to be a human in this world and the support required to get through challenging and transitional times, as well as the possibility for resilient growth and recovery. I am an avid lover of music, art and dance, believing that creativity is a part of being alive. I work to integrate this into my practice, along with a spiritual and intuitive sense.

I specialize in working with first responders, public safety personnel, military and veterans, and other emergency and trauma-exposed professionals. I help folks in these careers who are looking to protect against or recover from trauma, improve health and well-being, and build resilience, so that they may live happy and satisfying lives. There are unique challenges facing people in these lines of work and I am dedicated to providing culturally-competent care. Our team at Wayfound Mental Health provides clinical services to all front-line, trauma-exposed professionals, and if I'm not available then I can connect you with my team

My counselling practice is about supporting growth, achieving positive change and overcoming adversity with compassion and integrity. An effective therapeutic relationship can help clarify the nature of struggles you are facing and most importantly, foster your strengths and skills to help you achieve your goals. I would value the opportunity to provide you with responsive, evidenced-based supports in your process of growth.

Available either by phone or video conference, I am here to help people including those in health care cope in uncertain times. Situations such as illness, difficulties in the family, a change at work, or some other unforeseen event that leads to changes that you never imagined can be crippling. Long standing needs may also get triggered that make it difficult manage alone. You may begin to wonder "Will things ever get back on track"? Happiness is still possible in times of uncertainty. Kirana Psychotherapy has over 20 years of experience helping people understand how to grow even in difficult times.

I share a common human experience with my clients and appreciate our journeys. Maybe you're considering therapy to connect with someone non-judgmental and outside your personal support system; you're feeling uneasy or worrying about life; you're withdrawing from others and no longer find joy and pleasure; substance use or a habitual behaviour is getting in the way of meaningful relationships and meeting life’s challenges; or you experienced a major event in your life and you're feeling overwhelmed. We will endeavour to understand these challenges and I will support you in taking steps that would benefit you.

My over 20 years of experience in mental health and substance use and settings informs my work. I work with people impacted by their mental health, specifically anxiety, depression, ADHD and people who hear voices. I also support people to better their understanding of substance use in their life through harm reduction. With my extensive front-line social work experience, I support front-line workers navigating grief, loss and burnout. Finally, as someone from the 2SLGBTQ community who is non-binary and queer, I can support and bring lived experiences to the topics of coming out and navigating a gender journey.

Are you or a loved one struggling with depression, suicidality, an eating disorder, substance use, trauma/PTSD, or grief? Perhaps you’re seeking to improve your boundaries, communication skills, or self-development. Are relationship challenges – communication issues, infidelity, emotional/sexual intimacy, and preferences (LGBTQIA+ identities, consensual nonmonogamy, asexuality, etc.) or life transitions such as family planning, infertility, adoption, parenting, or divorce – weighing heavily on your mind? In these challenging situations, it’s common to feel overwhelmed, lost, or unsure where to turn.

Therapy is a collaborative effort between the counsellor and client. Services offered include but are not limited to; Depression & anxiety, ADHD & neurodivergence, Burnout, Trauma, Grief & loss, Relational challenges & boundaries, Self-esteem & identity, Anger, Body image, Domestic abuse & violence, Sexual Abuse, Addiction, and Substance use disorder. Together, we can explore challenges, create goals and determine the best therapeutic modality to suit your needs, values and unique perspective. A strong therapeutic alliance between therapist and client is the cornerstone of the work we do together, so honesty and safety is key.

You may have wondered at times, "Will I ever recover?", and I am excited to let you know that change is always within your reach. It takes a lot of courage and vulnerability to begin a journey towards healing, and yet every human is entitled to a life that reflects their core values and truest self. I believe that self-exploration is key to any change process, and accessing therapy is a brilliant and brave way to ignite this and to welcome yourself into an exciting new chapter. My practice is rooted in Anti Oppressive, trauma-informed care, with an emphasis on identifying and utilizing your strengths as agents of change.

I support young people who are aiming to learn new ways of accepting complex emotions, reducing emotional distress, improving emotional regulation, and increase meaning in their lives by learning to use effective coping skills to develop independence and accomplish their life goals. Fostering a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients is a fundamental component of my practice. I strive to create a secure base in my therapeutic relationships that allows for collaboration, while promoting a balance of acceptance and change in each client’s individual journey.
