Addictions or Substance Abuse
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.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Andrew Robertson
Counsellor/Therapist, Master of Counselling and Applied Psychotherapy, Advanced Clinical Skills in Gestalt Psychotherapy
As a therapist at one of Australia's leading treatment centres, South Pacific Private Hospital, I was privileged to work with a wide variety of clients in their recovery from both substance and process addictions. Addictions are generally only symptoms of deeper issues, many of which have their roots in our childhood developmental experiences. By addressing those more fundamental issues, clients are able to interrupt the cycle of insanity that is addiction. At SPPH, I ran groups for addiction generally and for sex addiction in men.

Colin Longworth - HPCCH Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Psychology & Counselling Services
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?

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Daniel Martin
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist, MAPS, MAAPi (AU), LPC (USA), NCC, CAIMHP
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.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Thomas Reiner Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Diploma of Counselling (AIPC)
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.
