Marion Tizzard
I offer support to help you resolve issues in your life associated with either your own alcohol and drug use or a family member's use. Alcohol and drug use can cause problems when they are used as a way of coping with other problems in your life. I will help you identify these and work through these with you so that you can work towards reducing or stopping your use of substances.

I have been a social worker and alcohol and drug practitioner for nearly 20 years, working predominantly in the addictions sector with young people and adults both in the community and in criminal justice settings. I believe that everyone has the ability to make changes in their lives but often the hardest part is taking the first step in asking for support. I will work with you at your pace to work through the problems that alcohol and drugs may be causing in your life, help you to identify the reasons for your alcohol and drug use and alternative ways of coping and work with you to use in a safer way, reduce your use or abstain completely. Some common problems that frequently arise may be anxiety, low mood, low self-esteem, work related issues and relationship problems. I will help you to identify and work through these to support you to achieve your goals.
