CHANGE can seem and feel like climbing mountains…

“Hence, the combination of counseling therapy and life skills coaching to enhance and foster higher levels of strength based self-efficacy and self esteem that increase the odds in favour of strength based behavioural change. Which acts as preventive mental and emotional life skills coping tools in structured treatment and recovery for longer sustained harm-reduction and sobriety.” — The Clinic’s Founder and Clinical Director, Shirvington Hannays, CCS-AS, CCAC, CCTACP.

“Life is about the need to constantly make #CHOICES (often very tough ones that can cause mental, emotional, relational, and even spiritual distress and/or discomfort). That almost always comes with consequences that yet again requires more choices to be considered and made.

Since it is often the unwillingness to sit with, address and ultimately resolve or adaptive change that can result, in maladaptive behaviours, Substance Use Disorder, other process Addictions or addictive behaviours; and/or even mental health related illnesses.

“I believe that behavioural change should be done with culturally sensitive and trauma-informed Life SKILLs coaching and individualized client-centered therapeutic counseling treatments; relapse prevention planning; and longer term after treatment case specific continuum of care with structured check-ins and tune-ups. Our life-skills coaching, masterclass retreats, day-spa relapse prevention and/or treatment experience are designed to support and enhance longer-term behavioural change that last a lifetime.” SMA. Hannays

A behavioural change and addiction treatment agency that does counseling therapy and life skills coaching differently

We believe that behavioural change is about creating safe space and environments that naturally promotes and motivates each individual to undertake with paced change readiness and individual self-efficacy to commit and maintain sustainable longer-term harm reduction and/or recovery sobriety.

The Process of Addiction

Addiction and the Dependency that is developed over time happens as a result of a process that gets hijacked by the #Brain. That ends in a loss of control.

Professionalism and Empathy

Every request for support and treatment is assessed and evaluated as unique as the individual presenting the addictive or maladaptive behaviour. So each case is treated with empathetic culturally sensitive and trauma informed service delivery for counseling therapy, along with life skills based holistic treatment, tat ends with structured relapse prevention planinng and development for adaptive relapse hijack and rescue. Based on clinical competencies and professionalism to increase longer-termed sustained harm reduction; relapse prevention; and/or recovery.

Relapse Prevention is Key

The best structured treatment without structured relapse prevention planning and development usually equals no repeated and frequent relapsing.
