Substance Use therapy
At Guidepoint Clinic, we understand that substance abuse can feel overwhelming and isolating. Whether you are struggling with alcohol or drugs, a therapist can help you take the first steps toward recovery.
Is Substance Use Therapy Right For Me?
Alcohol or drug use may start casually, but over time it can become difficult to manage. If substance use is affecting your health, relationships, or responsibilities, therapy may help. At Guidepoint Clinic, we provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment to explore underlying issues and build healthier coping strategies.
Loss of Control
Struggling to cut back or stop despite negative consequences is a key sign of a substance problem. Therapy can help you regain control over your choices.
Impact on Health
Substance use can affect sleep, energy, mood, and overall well-being. Support can help you recognize the connections between use and health.
Strained Relationships
Substance use often causes tension with family, friends, or partners. Therapy provides tools to address conflicts and rebuild connection.
Guilt or Shame
Many people experience regret or embarrassment about their use. Therapy offers a safe space to process these emotions while working toward change.
“Remember just because you hit bottom doesn’t mean you have to stay there.”
Therapy for Teens and Adults
We offer specialized substance use therapy to both teens and adults in Ontario and Newfoundland.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, but help is just a call or click away. You don’t have to go through this alone—reach out when you’re ready.
