Practice Information
Are you exhausted from loving someone who struggles with addiction? Do you feel caught between helping and enabling, supporting and protecting yourself? Many partners, parents, and family members quietly carry guilt, fear, resentment, and grief, often while putting their own needs last. Loving someone with an addiction can feel overwhelming and isolating. You may find yourself managing crises, walking on eggshells, or wondering if anything you do is actually helping. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and I am able to help you at Love With Boundaries!
I specialize in supporting the loved ones of people struggling with addiction. Together, you and I will explore your current situation and develop practical tools to set clear, loving boundaries, reduce conflict, improve self-care, and begin healing family relationships, whether or not your loved one chooses recovery.
I believe that everyone in the family is affected by addiction and everyone needs to heal. I will offer a supportive and non-judgmental space, with virtual appointments available to fit your schedule. If you’re ready to stop carrying this alone, I invite you to reach out for a 30-minute free consultation. Together, let’s talk about what’s happening and how I can support you.
Your fees will be determined by the counselling package you choose, and we can discuss that together.
