Our Services

One to One

Receive guidance, compassion and a listening ear from an understanding counsellor and learn practical steps to change your life and overcome alcohol dependence.

Couples session

This session is for yourself and your loved one. This can be your partner or a family member. Working through the issues that arise in recovery with your loved ones is so important.

Family sessions

The Family Sessions are designed to assist clients, family members, and significant others in developing a greater understanding of the disease of alcoholism. This includes a Q and A session. We work with clients and their families in a safe, caring, confidential way.

Conflict Resolution

In recovery from alcohol and drugs, navigating conflict effectively becomes a crucial life skill. Addiction can often lead to strained relationships and emotional dysregulation. When faced with conflict, old coping mechanisms like substance use may resurface as a way to avoid or numb difficult emotions. However, healthy conflict resolution fosters open communication, builds trust, and strengthens relationships. Through therapy and support groups, individuals in recovery can learn to express themselves constructively, listen actively, and find win-win solutions. By developing these skills, individuals can navigate disagreements productively, reducing stress and creating a strong foundation for lasting recovery.

CBT and ACT

The Freedom Room offers both CBT and ACT as part of the ongoing work we do with our clients.

Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) is a form of talking therapy that can be used to treat people with a wide range of mental health challenges. It is based on the idea that how we think (cognition), how we feel (emotion), and how we act (behaviour) all interact.

Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on helping clients to behave more consistently with their own values and apply mindfulness and acceptance skills to their responses to uncontrollable experiences.

Twelve Step Facilitation

Individuals are informed about various 12-step programs, including secular options. Secular 12 Steps follow the same core structure and principles as the original 12 Steps but remove references to a higher power or God. There is no pressure or expectation to attend external meetings.

TSF is a form of behavioural therapy designed to help individuals with substance use disorders achieve and maintain abstinence.TSF emphasizes themes like acceptance, surrender, self-examination/self-reflection, and building a support system, all within a non-religious framework.

Research indicates that TSF can be a highly effective treatment option for substance use disorders and is tailored to the individual’s needs and preferences. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Our proven program focuses on personal empowerment and provides a non-religious framework for recovery.

Pre-Rehabilitation Support

When it is time to decide which rehabilitation facility is best for you, The Freedom Room can assist you with finding the right service, support you with your admission.

Post-Rehabilitation Support

When you come home from rehabilitation, we recommend setting up a network. Addictions must be faced on a daily basis. Think of recovery not as a final destination, but a journey with the potential for missteps. Creating a safety net is key to your continued sobriety.

Relapse prevention

Alcoholism is a chronic disease, and you need a long-term plan to stay sober. People who struggle with alcoholism should treat their disorder like any other chronic disease. If you stop treating it, you will relapse. Relapse prevention is a plan to stay sober after our sessions.

Alcohol risk minimization

If you are not ready to stop drinking, we can help you draw up a plan to reduce your risks when drinking alcohol.
