Armour Addiction Services is a Canadian-based addiction support organization rooted in Victoria, BC, that helps adults whose substance use, and often overlapping behavioural or process addictions, has already begun affecting work, relationships, housing, or daily functioning. Armour focuses on online and in-person outpatient recovery support, counselling, coaching, and therapy services designed to meet people where they are with practical tools and connection.
A Flexible, Real-Life Recovery Approach
People often engage with Armour when managing substance use (whether alcohol, drugs, or related patterns like gambling, sex, or pornography) on their own hasn’t held and the impact has shown up in routines, responsibilities, or emotional wellbeing. The centre’s work happens mostly through individual and group counselling, recovery coaching, and psychoeducational programming, allowing participants to continue work, family, and other commitments while engaging in recovery.
Guided Support Rather Than Residential Separation
Armour’s services are delivered through intensive outpatient formats and online sessions. This includes recovery coaching that helps clients build structure and goals, navigate setbacks, strengthen coping skills, and develop routines that fit the life they’re still living. Counselling blends therapeutic approaches (like cognitive-behavioural strategies) with trauma-informed and holistic methods.
Support for Overlapping Challenges
Armour Addiction Services also provides support for behavioural or process addictions, such as sex, love, or pornography addiction, and offers specialized group work (including partners’ groups for people affected by a loved one’s addiction) and continuing care options. This makes it a broader recovery guide, not just focused on substance misuse alone.
For People Who Need Recovery Fitted to Their Life
This centre tends to be used by adults who recognize that substance use or related addictive patterns have begun undermining stability but who need a flexible outpatient approach where recovery work happens alongside daily roles and relationships, not in a separate residential setting.
