Overcome Your Addiction and Reclaim Your Life

At Psychotherapy Central in Limassol, I offer compassionate and effective addiction counseling services to help you overcome your struggles with addiction. As an experienced therapist, I understand the impact addiction can have on our lives and I am committed to providing you with a personalized approach to help you reclaim control of your life.

My approach to therapy is focused on addressing the root causes of your addiction, while also equipping you with the necessary skills and strategies to create a better future for yourself. I provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your emotions and identify triggers, and develop healthy coping mechanisms to achieve your long-term goals.

Many of us can become engaged in activities or use substances without any significant difficulties in our lives. However, some of us may reach a point where we experience a lack of control over what we are taking, doing or using. Thus, we are unable to change our behavior, regardless of the harmful effects, it has on our lives, whether we are aware of them or not. Consequently, we find ourselves completely dependent on substances or repetitive unwanted behavior. We may want to give up or quit but find it extremely difficult to do so without help. Dependencies and addictions can be the cause of a wide range of issues in our life in all its dimensions: physically, personally, socially and spiritually.

Understanding Addiction

Uncovering Addiction’s Root Causes

At Psychotherapy Central in Limassol, I understand that addiction is a complex issue that can have a significant impact on our life. Our therapeutic relationship can help you understand the reasons behind your addiction, address the underlying pain and trauma that fuel it, and create a personal plan to overcome it.

Addiction is often characterized by a lack of control over what I am taking, doing, or using. It can be challenging to overcome without support, even when you are aware of the harmful effects it has on your life. I will work with you to explore the root causes of your addiction, which can vary from alcohol, illegal drugs, food, prescribed medication, caffeine, nicotine, sugar, chocolate, work, sex, physical exercise, and gambling.

I recognize that most people struggling with addiction are filled with ambivalence. There may be parts of you that want to continue using or engaging in the behavior, while other parts of you want to change. My therapy services provide a safe and supportive environment where all parts of you can speak and work together towards a common goal.

My therapeutic approach to addiction involves addressing both the control issues and the underlying pain and trauma that fuel it. I will help you address unresolved experiences from the past, confront your fears and experiences of inner attack in the present, and envision a healthier and better future for yourself.

Our therapeutic relationship and work will involve a) addressing our memories, stories, and ‘looking back’ at unresolved experiences from the past; b) confronting our fears, dreads and experiences of inner attack that govern the present; and c) envisioning and taking brave actions to create a new, healthier and better future for ourselves.
