Addiction treatment requires compassionate understanding without judgement and we provide this service. Understanding the how and why of addiction is an important step to take before focusing on behavioural changes. We are able to help understand and provide treatment plan to help move through recovery. Individual plans that address you as a person is important to our team.

Accepting new clients! Addiction is a biopsychosocial disease, which is why I use a comprehensive approach that encompasses biological, psychological, and social dimensions in the recovery process. I work closely with my clients to help them identify and understand the underlying causes of their addiction, taking into account their unique life experiences and psychological profiles. I have pursued specialized training in substance use disorders, equipping me with the knowledge to offer targeted strategies and interventions. My goal is to guide clients toward the most appropriate therapeutic resources and support systems that align with their needs. Take the first step: contact me today!

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.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step programs, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brain in mind. That is, talking to the conscious brain while the primal brain is deciding things even before you are consciously aware? Well, that is the problem to solve in addiction. We have the solution utilizing a new cutting edge neuroscience-centered brain rebalancing system. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or call 877-606-6161.

Addictions come in many forms and I work with many additions and "habits" including substance use, smoking and food addictions. Addictions (especially involving drug and alcohol) are strongly associated with trauma and I take a trauma-informed approach to therapy. I often utilize the potent tool of hypnosis when working with addictions and habit control.

Addiction is a multifaceted challenge, and understanding its roots is key to recovery. While I do not offer therapy sessions for addiction, we have several addiction specialists at Psychotherapy Collective who are available to schedule a free 15-minute consultation with you to ensure they are the proper fit for your journey.
