Getting Started
CASON counsellors provide ongoing support in a number of programs available to people struggling with substance use or gambling behaviour. The process begins with an initial assessment, which includes meeting with a counsellor to share information relating to substance use or gambling behaviour and collaboratively determine next steps for treatment.
For questions about any of our programs,
please call 905-684-1183
Clients who are interested in making changes and whom are also agreeable to briefer, less intensive treatment are refereed to agency provided counselling/treatment services. Services employ a trauma and violence informed, staged screening and assessment approach to treatment planning. Additionally, Substance use focused education and counselling services are delivered in individual and group formats including family sessions.
We support all family who comes forward in times of need whether the person you are concerned about is receiving treatment at CASON or not. All are welcomed to participate in our family groups and services.
CASON has a number of youth counsellors that understand the challenges and pressures that youth may face and offer counselling and life skills training to help such youth set and achieve goals, reduce or eliminate substance use or problematic gambling, and improve their socio-emotional functioning.
