Youth Substance Abuse

Ottawa youth and teenagers are the most vulnerable demographics for alcohol and substance abuse. Decades of irresponsible education programs have inadequately addressed the root causes of substance abuse, arguably making youth more vulnerable to harm from drugs. As a result of poor understanding of how to properly approach alcohol and drugs, for some Ottawa youth, one time or infrequent use of alcohol or drugs can result in tragedies like overdose, accidents, and arrest. For Ottawa youth who have run into issues caused by alcohol and drugs, or who may be a suffering alcohol abuse or drug addictions, Capital Choice Counselling deals with both the root causes of substance abuse and teaches methods to reduce the unfortunate consequences that result.

Youth Internet Addiction

Called the ‘silent epidemic’, Ottawa youth internet addiction has become a pervasive problem throughout western society. For some, there are two worlds: the one outside and the one online. Spending too much time in the online world can lead someone to almost forget how to live in the one beyond their bedroom door. Ottawa youth internet addiction can also include video game addiction. Because these people are so rarely seen in person, as a society we barely are even aware they exist, and so it can be difficult to find resources for help when we or someone we love are struggling with the problem of internet addiction in Ottawa. Contact Capital Choice’s Ottawa Youth Counselling today to help understnad the signs of internet or video game addiction and how to help.
