If you’re struggling with your relationship with alcohol — whether you’re drinking to cope, finding it hard to cut down, or feeling like alcohol has started to take control — I want you to know that help is available. At FD Counselling & Therapy, I offer a safe, non-judgemental space where we can explore what’s going on for you, and work towards lasting, meaningful change.
Alcoholism doesn’t always look the same. You might:
•Be drinking more than you want to
•Use alcohol to manage stress, anxiety, or difficult emotions
•Feel guilt, shame or secrecy around your drinking
•Notice that alcohol is affecting your relationships, work, or health
•Struggle to stop or stay stopped
You don’t need to have hit “rock bottom” to seek support. If alcohol is interfering with your life in any way, it’s valid — and it’s okay to talk about it.
Together, we’ll look at your relationship with alcohol and the deeper emotional or psychological patterns that may be behind it. My approach is supportive, down-to-earth, and free from judgement. You set the pace — and I’ll be with you every step of the way.
In our work together, we can:
•Explore the reasons behind your drinking
•Understand the role alcohol may be playing in your life
•Identify healthier ways to cope with stress, anxiety, or past trauma
•Build motivation, resilience, and strategies for change
•Support you through reducing or stopping alcohol, if that’s your goal
Whether you’re aiming for sobriety, harm reduction, or just want to understand yourself better — your journey is yours, and I’m here to support it.
I know that speaking about alcohol use can be hard. It can bring up feelings of shame, fear, or confusion — but taking that first step to talk about it is incredibly brave. You deserve support, not judgement.
If you’d like to talk about how I can support you, please get in touch. I offer a free, confidential initial consultation to see how we might work together.
