Addiction Therapists in Grande Prairie, AB.

We've all had to survive, in one way or another. Sometimes the coping methods we've used end up becoming bigger problems than the issues we were trying to avoid in the first place. If this rings true for you or someone you love, you've come to the right place. Addiction is not a character defect; it is pattern of thinking and behaviour that becomes entrenched and takes on a life of its own. It holds you hostage and prevents you from experiencing true connection, contentment and growth. If you're reading this, there's a part of you that already knows that it's time. I can help you take your power back, one step at a time.

Richard Evans is MTO Reach's addictions counsellor. Working out of his own experience, he is passionate about helping people reach their full potential and living lives of flourishing. Richards approach to counselling includes creating safety in the relationship and being authentic. He uses trauma-informed practices to journey alongside my clients as we sift through life to process the areas of hurt. Often, it feels insurmountable to do this on our own. Richards integrates CBT into his practice and is IFS informed.

Ready for change? In your life, relationships, and with yourself ? Change begins with you. Exploring how your addiction has influenced your life and imagining how your life can be by rewriting your relationship with addiction. Our lives and our pathways are not written in stone. When we tell our stories in ways that can make us stronger, we can discover - we are not the problem - the problem is the problem. When we separate ourselves from the problem, we can begin to revise our relationships with problems and gain new insight into different ways we can live our lives. I can help you discover ways to reclaim your past and re-envision your future and change your relationship with addiction.

Addiction is often the surface problem, it's a way of staying away from a greater pain that is below the surface. Doing addiction counselling with me is a gentle and compassionate process of tending to the real issues below the addiction, so that there is no longer a need to engage in this harmful behaviour. When you pull out the roots of a weed, the weed will not grow back, and real change has been achieved!
