"Whether its you or someone you love who is suffering from addiction, there is help."

There are many schools of thought to help those wanting recovery, struggling with recovery or needing some help through challenges while sober.

ADDICTION SERVICES

HELP FOR LOVED ONES

"Jodi was there as a counselor who really helped me cope with the trauma of my daughter relapsing 3 times, ending up repeatedly in hospital and even jail. Jodi was kind, compassionate, and understanding. Most of all, she was there for my daughter and I."

RELIEF FROM LIFE WITH ADDICTION

Counselling

Often, sifting through the wreckage of life as an addict or an addicted loved one can be complex.

Counselling services provide tools for you to get past the hurt and start a clean & sober life.

Approaches include individual counseling, family counseling, trauma therapy and more.

Sometimes, It Takes A Firm Hand

Often people feel like they should be able to handle the addict themselves. Families can mistakenly believe that addiction and alcoholism are a shameful secret that with a few strong-arm tactics can be put in place.

Addiction is cunning. It can leave you feeling confused and depleted. The services of a trained Interventionist can bring steps toward recovery when it seems like all is lost. You aren't alone.

SERVICES FOR LOVED ONES

WHAT CAN THE FAMILY DO ABOUT AN ADDICTS BEHAVIOR?

What Is An Intervention?

According to the Hazelden/Betty Ford Foundation, an intervention "is a deliberate process designed to help another person—a family member, loved one, friend or colleague—recognize and change self-destructive
thoughts, feelings or behaviors".

Our belief is that when properly planned and executed, it is possible to achieve the desired outcome. What does that mean when talking about interventions? It means the addict is able to hear what their loved ones have to say about the effect of their behavior.

INTERVENTIONS & FAMILY TRANSITIONS

Family Transitions and Aftercare

Often used in conjunction with an Intervention, Family Transition is a strategy designed
to help the entire family move forward together once treatment has been complete.

"A New Life Requires a New Approach"

Our personalized After-Care programs are designed to support the family during these big changes.

Trauma Therapy

Many schools of thought believe that underlying addiction is trauma.
In order to help you address and release past traumas, our founding member, Jodi Takar, practices NTHP or Neuro Trauma Healing Process.

It's crucial to recovery that your central nervous system be reset and released from any past trauma.

We can help.
