Zlata Kovaltchouk
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RPC, RP
Gain a deeper understanding of your addiction patterns and the function these behaviours serve when it comes to emotional management. Learn more effective ways to connect with and manage difficult thoughts and feelings, and begin taking steps towards what really matters in life. Address other issues commonly associated with addiction, such as anxiety and social anxiety, stress, low self esteem, ineffective communication, trauma, and poor coping skills. Focus is placed on beginning to build a richer and more meaningful life and to develop a better relationship with the self, rather than focusing on sobriety and abstinence primarily. Get better at creating the kind of life where substances no longer play an important role.

Laura Farberman
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW
I work with Motivational Interviewing and Compassionate Inquiry, a curious approach that supports individuals to discover their own motivations to change their habits by bringing greater awareness to why they have them in the first place. I use a trauma informed approach and include the body-mind connection in the process.

Kaleidoscope Counselling Collective
Registered Social Worker, RSW
Substance use/ Addiction is on a continuum. It can be something we occasionally due to numb out some distressing feelings, or it can be something that we can't function without. Wherever you are on the continuum, there is always room to shift.
In therapy, we can help you gain new perspectives and learn strategies for managing your use, including exploring the areas of your life your use affects (i.e. relationships, emotions, healing, functioning, etc.). Our clinicians greet each of our clients with non-judgment and meet you where you’re at.
If you're wanting to feel more in control of your substance use- Book a consultation or session today! www.kaleidoscopecounsellingco.com

Tony Miller
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Contrary to what is believed, addiction usually starts with a positive impact on a person’s life and even sometimes saves their life. However, as the time goes by, this creative adjustment becomes outdated and turns into a problem. Therefore, working with addiction should not be about illuminating the symptoms or the manifestations of the addiction, but rather trying to understand the reasons underlying the addiction and the function that it used to serve. A successful recovery is only possible through understanding and even respecting the addiction. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
From a trauma-informed perspective, addiction is understood to be a manifestation of unresolved trauma for which the addiction is a coping method. I work to help clients better understand both their addiction and their trauma, and how to resolve both by learning more healthy and helpful ways of coping and by doing trauma processing. As Gabor Mate says "do not ask why the addiction, ask why the pain".

MindfulWe Holistic Psychotherapy & Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
I have ten years of experience working with courageous people that use addictions as a coping strategy and want to practice other forms of self-help that's more aligned with their values. Whether conscious or not, addiction serves a purpose, or else you wouldn't do it. With guidance, you will arrive to your inner reasons and together, we will replace the behavior into a desired habit.
Additionally, addictions impacts the whole family and from one individual choosing to work on themselves, the ripple onto the family system is positively felt and appreciated.
