Addiction Counselling

Many behaviours in our private and public lives can become addictions if they start to interfere with our ability to function from day to day or, if despite trying, we are unable to stop the behaviour. Addictions may involve drug or alcohol use, gambling, smoking, work and sex. An addiction can reach into and affect every area of our lives causing hurt and destruction.

Life Supports counsellors can support you in learning to take back control of your life and free yourself from your addictive behaviours. Addictions often mask an underlying emotional issue that is unresolved and causing pain or suffering. The addictive behaviour can sometimes act as an escape from difficult feelings. We work with our clients to identify and manage any emotional issues that may be contributing to the addictive behaviour. We will also identify strategies and techniques to help our clients take control of their lives and resist the temptation of their addictions. Addiction counselling will assist you to enjoy a life that is no longer constrained and controlled by addiction.
