Addiction

I can support you to unpick what drives addictive behaviour whether that be alcoholism, drug addiction, sex addiction or anything else that has taken control of your life. I have experience of 12 step recovery and this is something we can incorporate into our work together if relevant.

I understand the impact that addiction can have on your sense of self worth, and also the impact it has on our loved ones.

If you are someone either struggling with addiction yourself, or a loved one’s addiction is impacting your life then I can help you to navigate this difficult journey.

What Therapy Can Support You With

Explore what your relationship to the addictive behaviour looks like and what triggers it without judgment.

Learn new ways of managing difficult feelings or stressors.

For many, addiction is linked to unresolved trauma or feeling disconnected from themselves or others.

If you’re accessing 12-step groups, harm reduction services, or other support, therapy can work alongside those systems or as a first step toward deeper reflection
