Facility: Relieve Counselling
Summary
At Relieve Counselling, we use an attachment and trauma-informed lens. We use trauma therapies such as OEI, LI, and EMDR to help alleviate symptoms. We offer counselling to children, youth, adults, elderly, families, and couples. As psychotherapists, our goal is to get a greater understanding of a person as a whole and get to the root cause. Rather than just giving coping tools, we try to address the original problem - and not just look at the symptoms. We strive to get clients to a healthier place with their mental health, relationships, and overall well-being.
