I am a Registered Social Worker with the BC College of Social Workers and a member of the BC Association of Social Workers. I completed my Master of Social Work with a clinical specialization at the University of British Columbia’s Okanagan campus.
I have experience working with people struggling with homelessness, substance use and abuse, and acute crisis. In addition to my work at Alex Matthew Counselling, I work at a non-profit addictions treatment centre delivering therapy to men struggling with substance use, depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and more.
Hi, I’m Alex M. Sadlowski.
My Approach
My role as your therapist involves more than listening. I am there to help clear up confusion, give a new perspective, and to offer honest, encouraging feedback. My hope is that you offer feedback as well, letting me know when it feels like our work together is hitting a rough patch.
In therapy, you are free to express inner thoughts, feelings, and beliefs - to say things that you’ve never said out loud. This freedom brings new understanding and acceptance.
I believe that every human being can make positive changes in the right environment. I am there to help create that environment. If you think we might be a good fit, feel free to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation.
