Addiction
Addiction is defined as a chronic pattern of compulsive substance use or behaviours despite harmful consequences. It involves impaired control, cravings, tolerance, withdrawal, and disruptions in health or daily functioning.
At ShiftGrit, clinicians are trained in the ShiftGrit Core Method™, which is always paired with their post-graduate training in integrated therapy modalities. This combined approach allows therapists to address underlying belief patterns while drawing on evidence-based models to support clients navigating addiction.
