About Promptd

In 2025, a therapist and a software engineer set out to raise the bar for mental health marketplaces

We looked at how people search for mental health services and thought: this could be so much better.

We bring tech to mental health so that finding the right provider feels as intuitive and personal as the experience you get on your favourite apps. Today, we represent clinics and independent mental health professionals across Montreal and its surrounding cities, in-person and online.

And we're just getting started.

What our users say

Spent close to two years trying to find a therapist. Waitlists, no callbacks, people who weren't the right fit. Ended up finding someone through Promptd in like a week.

Nadia

I run a small law firm and needed a family mediator for a case. I did not find anyone in my network so I tried Promptd and found someone pretty quickly.

Catherine

Nice to actually see prices listed upfront. Saves you from having to call around just to figure out what you can afford.

Your questions, answered

What is addiction counselling?

Addiction counselling is talk-based treatment for substance use or behavioural patterns like gambling, sex, or food. Sessions focus on identifying triggers, building coping skills, addressing underlying issues, and planning steps toward your chosen goal, whether that is abstinence, reduced use, or behaviour change.

What is the best counselling approach for addiction?

There is no single best approach; effectiveness depends on the substance or behaviour, co-occurring issues, and your goals. Motivational interviewing helps with ambivalence, CBT therapy targets triggers and thinking patterns, and ACT therapy supports urge surfing and values-based change. Many counsellors combine methods rather than using one in isolation.

Does addiction counselling require abstinence, or does it support harm reduction?

Both approaches are practiced across Canada. Abstinence-based work aims for a full stop to use, while harm reduction focuses on safer use, reduced frequency, or moderation without requiring full cessation. Ask a counsellor directly which models they work with before booking so your goals line up from the first session.

What are the warning signs of addiction?

Common signs include needing more to get the same effect, failed attempts to cut back, continued use despite harm to relationships, work, or health, withdrawal symptoms when stopping, and use taking up increasing time or attention. A counsellor can help assess severity and decide whether outpatient counselling is enough or whether a higher level of care is needed.

What are the stages of addiction recovery?

A widely used model has five stages: precontemplation (not yet ready), contemplation (weighing change), preparation (planning), action (making the change), and maintenance (sustaining it). Relapse is treated as information about what needs more support, not failure. Counsellors match the work to the stage you are in.

How is relapse prevented in recovery?

Relapse-prevention plans identify high-risk times, build replacement routines, and practice recovery steps after slips. If intense emotions drive use, DBT therapy skills for distress tolerance can reduce relapse risk by giving you structured tools for the moments cravings peak.

Does addiction counselling address trauma or mental health alongside substance use?

Yes. Co-occurring trauma, depression, or anxiety often drives or maintains substance use, and treating use alone can leave the underlying driver unchanged. Look for counsellors who work with both concurrently, or consider pairing with a trauma and PTSD therapists provider if trauma is central to what keeps you using.

Can family or loved ones be part of addiction counselling?

Yes, with your consent. Family sessions address communication patterns, enabling behaviours, and how loved ones can support recovery without trying to manage it. Separate counselling and peer groups also exist for partners and family members affected by addiction in the household.

How long does addiction counselling take?

Timelines vary by substance, severity, and co-occurring issues. Early sessions focus on stabilization and goal-setting, then shift to skills work and relapse prevention over weeks or months. Maintenance sessions may continue less frequently for a year or more to support lasting change.

Is online addiction counselling a good option?

Yes, particularly for scheduling flexibility, privacy, or rural access. Look for structured relapse-prevention work, clear support planning, and confidentiality practices that fit remote sessions. online therapy is a good starting point for finding remote addiction providers across Canada.
