I use a recovery-focused, harm reduction based approach to addressing issues of addiction. Clients can expect to take the lead on the goals they want to set regarding this experience, and using narrative practices can expect to be supported in understanding the roots of their addiction, the effects that addiction has had on their lives, as well as what they might have within them already to put up against it and begin living the lives that they want for themselves.

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.

Many approaches to addiction emphasize willpower and deprivation, but this only works temporarily. Alcohol, substances, or other addictive behaviours like gambling and gaming offer short-term relief of underlying issues at a long-term cost to one's relationships and health. As an addiction counsellor, I can help you resolve underlying issues, regain control, and build a sense of meaning and purpose, so you can start living the life you want. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to addiction recovery. I meet each client where they are at, tailoring my approach to each person's unique needs. Send me a message and we can connect for a quick call to discuss next steps.

Kate Harper, PhD, RP Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO) & Clinical Supervisor

In K7P 0C1 - Nearby to Deseronto.

Often, the focus of addiction counselling is abstinence. But our treatment philosophy focuses on getting at the feelings that lie beneath the symptoms - the symptoms of addictions or substance use. Substances or any addictive behaviours are driven by painful hurt, trauma, and losses/grief and by working through these issues, we can help you better understand the role of substances in your life. We take a compassionate approach to substance use issues.

Social Worker / Addictions Counsellor

In K7K 1Z7 - Nearby to Deseronto.

Mood altering to avoid feeling difficult emotions is common. Be it with substances or behaviors. It often comes with shame and isolation. Over time, becoming dependent on a mood altering substance or behaviour actually provokes deep changes in the brain and decreases a person's ability to make healthy choices. It is also said that addiction is a disease of attachement where the person has come to obtain solace in their addiction which temporarily reduces their pain, be it physical or emotional. As a certified alcohol and drug counsellor and certified sex addiction counsellor, I am trained to help people return to who they are or were meant to be without harmful substances and/or behaviours.

Addictions often go hand-in-hand with emotional distress, masking a deeper pain beneath the surface. Finding relief from intrusive thoughts or escalating anxiety/panic is necessary and understandably leads many to distract or avoid the discomfort using substances in excess. Having a non-judgmental safe space to reflect on life is crucial for healing. You're invited to reach out and see if psychotherapy online is right for you.
