How we can help
-
Individual
Individual counselling is a space for you to show up exactly as you are and be met with a compassionate, non-judgemental therapist who can help you find a better path forward. Tailored to your unique needs and goals, our individual therapy sessions provide a confidential space to explore these challenges.
-
Family and Parents
Having kids is hard. Having kids who have unique needs is even harder. Whether you are looking for parenting support or managing your own mental health symptoms, we can help you feel better able to manage the challenges you are facing.
-
Children & Youth
The individual members of a family are interconnected and problems within the family unit can affect everyone involved. Whether your family is facing communication issues, transitions, or conflicts, family therapy provides a supportive environment to facilitate healing and positive change within the family system.
