Addiction Therapists in Burk's Falls, ON.

Addiction often begins as a way to cope with pain, stress, or emptiness—but over time, it can take control of your life. At Pro Q Therapy, we help you understand the “why” behind the addiction, not just the behavior itself. Our therapists have extensive experience in residential treatment, hospital, and forensic settings, supporting clients through both early recovery and long-term healing. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, EMDR, and trauma-informed therapy, we help you rebuild self-trust, regulate emotions, and create sustainable habits for a life rooted in freedom and balance.

While substance use typically begins as recreational activity it can become habit forming and often develops addictive behaviors interfering with other areas of our lives, such as relationships, jobs, and finances. To increase awareness and insight into the reasons for using, I offer evidence-based treatment while providing you with options along the continuum of the Harm Reduction approach towards abstinence. We will explore any underlying emotional needs and relationships. By gaining insight to any ambivalent thoughts and feelings around changing patterns of substance misuse I will support you in the setting and achieving of personal goals.

It can be hard to know where to begin when dealing with addiction because its roots can run deep into the fabric of our lives. When working with individuals who experience addictions, I first seek to understand and appreciate each person’s story and work to provide a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where healing can begin. My own experiences with addiction and recovery have helped me to understand the healing power of compassion, acceptance and encouragement. Reach out today to learn more about my approach and your journey to healing.

Addiction, whether to substances, alcohol, or behaviours like gambling or pornography, often serves as a coping mechanism for deeper emotional pain, loss, or unmet needs. Together, we’ll explore what’s driving these patterns beneath the surface. I provide a safe, compassionate space to help you understand addiction’s roots and develop healthier ways to cope, build resilience, and reclaim control.

Having an addiction is not a sign of weakness or lack of character. In fact, reaching out for help and being open to change takes a great deal of strength. My approach is one of openness and non-judgment. I follow a harm reduction approach meaning that I respect my clients right to set their own goals which will then guide our sessions. I appreciate that not everyone is ready to, nor wants to, work towards full sobriety. Harm reduction is about reducing the negative impact that substance use has on that person’s well-being and life. I strongly believe that any positive change is a success. If you think that my approach would work for you, please book a free consultation.

Many turn to substances or behaviours to numb deep pain from past trauma. I provide a safe, compassionate space to explore that pain without judgment and uncover healthier ways to cope. Together, we address underlying wounds, develop emotional resilience, and build practical strategies to manage triggers. Clients leave feeling more empowered, grounded, and capable of reclaiming control, creating balance, and reconnecting with their values and life purpose.
