Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
At times when situations, concerning difficulties managing addictions, go out of control, you should ask for help.
I can help you….
My name is Gagandeep Khurme
I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and Certified Canadian Addiction Counsellor with over a decade of working in the field of counselling, helping my clients overcome their issues. My priority is to bring happiness in the lives of individuals, couples and families who are struggling with addictions or substance use/abuse of themselves or their loved ones.
My experience and approaches together result in providing extensive benefits to my clients and their loved ones, by being flexible to accommodate their dynamic life changes and maintain trust and confidentiality.
In my sessions, I create a therapeutic atmosphere that promotes growth and positive change to help my clients manage their issues related to their mental health or addictions and help identify and explore healthier solutions to their issues. This is done through individual therapy sessions focused on goal setting, harm reduction, relapse prevention, and providing them with sufficient skills and tools to overcome their issues and maintain well being.
To accommodate the diverse needs of my clients, my treatment plans are customized that take into consideration the specific needs, preferences, and circumstances of my clients to ensure that my clients have sufficient skills and tools to help overcome their issues and maintain well being.
At The Thoughts, we also have help available for friends and family members of those who need help, because we understand that they too experience tremendous pressure, issues, and challenges when taking care of their loved one.
In addition to self-referral, I also provide specially designed programs for those who have been charged with drinking & driving, domestic abuse/violence, under the influence of drugs/alcohol/anger or any charges where the act was influenced by drugs, alcohol or anger and are mandated by the legal system, ordered by the court or by a probation officer. A letter of completion is provided upon request for court purposes.
