Outpatient Addiction Treatment Edmonton
Healing That Fits Life
Recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all. For many people, taking weeks or months away from work, school, or family simply isn’t realistic. At Sorobey Psychology, we believe that getting better shouldn’t mean putting your life on pause.
Our outpatient addiction treatment in Edmonton is designed for individuals who need structured, professional care—while maintaining their daily responsibilities. Whether you’re a working professional, a parent, or someone seeking privacy and flexibility, this program offers a trauma-informed path to recovery that
works around your world, not against it.
This isn’t just about stopping an addiction—it’s about rebuilding your life with clarity, purpose, and self-compassion.
Our Treatment Philosophy
Addiction doesn’t define you—it’s a signal that something deeper needs care. Our approach combines psychology, neuroscience, and compassion to help you understand what’s beneath the behavior.
We don’t just focus on stopping use; we focus on why it began.
Through trauma-informed care, emotional regulation, and personalized strategies, you’ll learn to rebuild from the inside out.
At Sorobey Psychology, recovery means more than abstinence—it means reconnection: to yourself, your relationships, and your goals.
What Is Outpatient Addiction Treatment?
Outpatient addiction treatment provides the same therapeutic support and clinical structure as inpatient rehab—but without the need for residential care.
You’ll receive therapy, relapse-prevention training, and emotional support in scheduled sessions that fit into your week. This approach allows you to apply what you learn immediately to your real life—creating lasting, practical change.
At Sorobey Psychology, our outpatient program is guided by evidence-based methods and led by a Registered Psychologist with nearly two decades of experience in addiction, trauma, and recovery.
Our clients often choose outpatient treatment when they:
Need professional help but can’t leave work or family commitments
Are transitioning from an inpatient program
Want to maintain independence while receiving therapy
Prefer a confidential, personalized setting over group-based rehab
Individual Therapy Sessions
You’ll meet regularly with your psychologist to address triggers, emotional regulation, and underlying trauma. Using evidence-based approaches such as:
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) for trauma healing
Mindfulness and Stress Management Techniques
