You made the decision to look at your life from a different perspective and realized that the destructive behaviour of addiction does not serve you anymore. The grip of addiction can be strong, especially when times are tough. This podcast was created to remind you that 'ups and downs' are normal in every person's life, and to provide you with professional and peer-related insights and supports in your recovery from illness to wellness. My name is Kinga Burjan, I am a Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario, Canada working with Trafalgar Addiction Treatment Centres. I have personal and professional experience with addiction and recovery. My goal is to help you connect with your inner strength and motivation to continue focusing on your wellness, through having unique conversations around addiction and mental health with professionals and peers who have insights to support your wellness journey.
