Individual
Psychotherapy is a mental health treatment that involves talking with a therapist to address emotions, thoughts, and behaviours. It can be offered in-person, over the phone, or virtually and is aimed at helping individuals address mental health concerns and improve overall well-being. Psychotherapy can support individuals in developing healthy coping skills, improving relationships, and promoting self-awareness and growth.
Couples
Couples counselling utilizing evidence-based methods, such as Gottman Method and/or Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), have been scientifically shown to be effective in enhancing relationships. Through these therapeutic modalities, couples work with a therapist to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and increase emotional connection. By focusing on emotions and attachment, partners create a secure bond and build a stronger, more intimate relationship. This proven scientific approach has been shown to bring lasting changes to couples struggling with relationship issues.
Grief
Grief counselling supports clients in processing their feelings and emotions during times of loss. We offer a non-judgmental and empathetic space for clients to explore their grief, helping them process their emotions and identify supportive skills. This process can also involve addressing any complicated grief reactions and finding ways to achieve a sense of closure. Through this support, grief counsellors aim to assist clients in finding a path toward acceptance and healing
Life Transitions
Life transition counselling offers personalized support to individuals during significant life changes, including marriage, relocation, school, retirement, and more. With the help of a skilled counsellor, individuals can explore their emotions/challenges and develop effective coping strategies to promote growth, resilience, and a successful transition. This type of therapy is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to navigate a life transition with confidence and positivity.
