About Jodi Takhar

Picture


​"My mission is to help those whose lives are affected by addiction."
​
​With my extensive experience and training in the area of addiction, I help
families cope with the stress and strain of living with an addict or an
alcoholic while helping the addicted person find a way out.
"Not only is Jodi an amazing and compassionate counsellor who walks the talk; she loves her work! She made it safe to voice and work through the shame and guilt, as well as the stigma and fear I had around drug addiction. Thanks to Jodi, rather than putting my life on hold, and constantly worrying about my daughter, I am reminded to find ways to support and take care of myself."
~ Rita, Vancouver
​I understand that addiction and alcoholism affect the entire family. With almost 20 years as a foster parent to troubled teens, I have seen the damage first hand. As a parent to 2 daughters, I understand how painful it is to watch your children suffer. 

This is why the services I offer are for the entire family. Everyone has a part although it may be easier sometimes to focus on the hurtful behavior of the addicted one. 

I became a counsellor and chose to focus on addiction because I believe there is a way out. I have seen families reunited, I have experience with long-term sobriety and I want to show you how to build the life you long for. 
 "It is not enough to put your child into rehab; you have to look after yourself.  ​We know that without Jodi, and the other parents in the group, we would not have made it and we would have continued to blame each other for our daughter’s addiction. We have learned that we did not cause it, we cannot cure it, and we cannot control it, but we can face it together. Jodi has brought a calming peace into our lives, which has made this unfortunate and unexpected journey livable."
