Therapy for tapering and withdrawal in Victoria, British Columbia
Dawn Cox is a Registered Clinical Counsellor serving Victoria, British Columbia, working with people who are tapering off psychiatric medication or living through withdrawal. This is talk therapy alongside a taper — support for the psychological and emotional effects that can arise during tapering and withdrawal — not management of the medication itself.
