Addiction is not a personal failing — it’s often a sign that someone has been coping alone with emotional pain for too long. Whether the difficulty is substances, behavioural addiction, or compulsive patterns, support is possible.

In our work together, we may explore:

• what drives the behaviour
• how emotions, stress, or trauma influence patterns
• shame, secrecy, or self-judgement
• stabilisation and relapse prevention
• long-term behavioural change
• rebuilding relationships and trust
• boundaries and partner support (if relevant)

I also work with partners who are affected by addiction, offering space to understand the dynamics and explore their own emotional needs.
