Helen's approach
Realistic, Down-to-Earth and Warm
Drug and alcohol use is most often a learned coping skill to manage personal problems or uncomfortable feelings. Unfortunately this learned way of coping can eventually lead to increased self medicating of pain and hurt, leaving most people feeling isolated, alone and misunderstood.
Helen's realistic approach to problem solving encourages you to understand yourself in the context of your life, by identifying irrational beliefs, exploring family of origin issues, and recognising and understanding personal triggers of relapse.
Helen provides a safe and comfortable environment for you to work through personal problems, assisting and encouraging the growth and emotional healing necessary to empower you to regain control of your life.
