I adapt my approach to meet you where you are in your journey towards change. I understand that complete abstinence may not always be what you're looking for or need at this time.

You might have various goals for change, whether it's aiming for abstinence, moderation, or harm reduction. Feeling unsure about making these changes is normal and part of the process. I'm here to support you and integrate our work with your other goals in therapy.

Here's what our work together may include:

• CBT and DBT: Providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to equip you with more skills and tools to navigate challenges and urges in the moment.

• ACT: Introducing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help you separate yourself from urges and cravings, fostering a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and values. 

• EMDR: Utilizing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address urges, cravings, and underlying negative beliefs and experiences attached to substance use.

My focus…

• Individualized Care: I offer a highly personalized approach that focuses entirely on your unique needs and goals. Recovery looks different from person to person, and I have a variety of approaches to help support you in your journey towards positive long-lasting change.

• Trauma-Informed Expertise: My background in trauma-informed care ensures that we can address the underlying issues that be contributing to addictive behaviours with sensitivity and empathy.

• Safe and Confidential Space: You can speak openly about your challenges and concerns, knowing that our interactions are confidential and judgment-free.

• Flexible Sessions: I provide both in-person and online counseling sessions to accommodate your schedule and preferences.

Making change begins with a conversation, and I'm here to listen, support, and empower you on your journey to lasting change. Contact me today, if you would like to book a free 15 minute video consult to see if my approach might be a good fit for you.
