We provide our clients with the support, care and understanding needed in order to heal.
Each of our Clinical Counsellors offers a unique set of skills and therapeutic approach, including Trauma-Informed practice, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy, - Attachment theory, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Narrative therapy, Mindfulness and Grounding work, as well as Strength-based and anti-oppressive theories.
Research shows that traumatic exposure is an underlying factor in most mental health issues. We provide our clients with the support, care and understanding needed in order to manage and overcome challenges that result from trauma.
