Addiction Counselling

Overcome addiction with a personalised plan that helps you regain control and address the challenges beneath it.
Addiction Counselling
Online & in person Confidential, judgement-free care

Addiction rarely starts as a choice to cause harm. Often it begins as a way to cope with stress, pain or loneliness, and slowly takes more than it gives. Asking for help is a courageous first step, and you do not have to take it alone.

We offer confidential, non-judgemental counselling for alcohol, drug, gambling and other dependencies. Together we look beyond the habit itself to the feelings, patterns and situations that keep it going.

How we can help

  • Exploring your relationship with the substance or behaviour, honestly and without shame

  • Identifying triggers and building practical strategies to manage cravings

  • Addressing underlying issues such as trauma, anxiety or depression

  • Relapse prevention planning and ongoing support for lasting change

  • Guidance for family members affected by a loved one's addiction

What to expect

We begin by understanding your story and your goals, whether that is cutting down, stopping completely or staying on track after treatment.

Our Addiction Therapy Uses different Psychological modalities such as:

  • Motivational Interviewing: a respectful, non-pushy conversation style that helps you find your own reasons to change.

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): identifies triggers and thought patterns that drive cravings, and builds healthier responses.

  • Relapse Prevention planning: prepares you for high-risk moments, with practical steps you can use in real life.

  • Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention: helps you ride out urges instead of acting on them.

  • Stages of Change approach: meets you where you are, whether you are thinking about change or already taking action.

  • Family involvement and support: helps loved ones understand addiction, set healthy boundaries and heal together.

    Where medical support is needed, we will help you find the right referral.
