WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING NEW REFERRALS!!​

At AAPRICOT, we have been treating addiction disorders in the underserved for more than five years. Our philosophy guides us in that we treat clients "where they are at."
  Our inter-professional team is compassionate, client-centered, and helps to assist clients in meeting their goals.

We are a referral-based front-line community partnership program, hosted by our community partners Good Shepherd Ministries and Fred Victor.  At AAPRICOT, clients receive timely access to addiction assessment, addiction counseling and
 addiction-focused psychotherapy. We teach relapse prevention techniques and build coping skills for dealing with the recovery journey. 

At AAPRICOT we consider all clients as part of our team, and use inter-professional case conferences to ensure clients are treated with the utmost of care. As a team, we are able to support each other to best support our clients.

AAPRICOT runs group programs and workshops at our host sites.  

We are the only program in Toronto that provides qualified addiction-physician and addiction psychotherapy-physician led support for clients that are under-served. 





AAPRICOT is a partnership program of Good Shepherd Ministries and​ Concurrent Disorders Support Services with addiction medicine specialist, Dr. Ashok Krishnamurthy, and addiction psychotherapist, Dr. John Young.  

​Dr. Ashok Krishnamurthy also provides clinical services at Women's College Hospital Substance Use Service and
St Joseph's Health Centre Addiction Medicine Service. He is a consultant to First Nations communities in the Sioux Lookout zone, and provides assistance to the Physician Health Program (PHP) and the College of Physicians and Surgeons (CPSO) for clinical assessments, independent medical evaluations and substance use monitoring. 

Dr. John Young has been working as a GP psychotherapist for many years in Toronto, and currently works primarily in clinical psychotherapy for AAPRICOT.
Dr. Krishnamurthy and Dr. Young are both very passionate in their work with under-served clients with concurrent disorders, and take a client-centered, holistic approach to client care.
