Description

Working with people to experience and explore what wellness means to them is a core value of my therapeutic work. By taking a holistic therapeutic approach that incorporates your mind, body, and spirit we can explore your goals and needs from various aspects of who you are. Together we can take a journey where we spend time with your wounds and what hurts, where we honour your challenges and hardships while also growing and investing in your healing, pleasure, and joy.

Facility Information

Summary

We provide free 30-minute consultations with our counsellors for you to get an idea of what we provide. We create tailored treatments to each and every one of our clients. This involves a variety of approaches that are attuned to your needs (even if you're unsure of what those are at the moment).

We strive to accommodate our clients, regardless if they have tons of experience in counselling or are considering taking the first plunge. We also strive to focus on understanding your mental health rather than rushing toward solutions. This can make for significant changes that last!
