Description
Accepting NEW Clients – Do you struggle with confidence or self-esteem, stress, anxiety, and low-mood? Do you feel like you’re never good enough, or that you have to please others? Are you sick of feeling exhausted, or like you don't have much left to give each day? Have you experienced trauma that follows you around? Would you like a better understanding of your behaviours daily or relationally? Together we can look at exploring the strengths, relationships, and experiences that have got you to this point, and move forward in a way that reconnects you with yourself.

Facility Information
Fika Mental Health
Summary
We built the idea for this practice around the Swedish notion of a "Fika Break" where one takes time to pause, nourish, and socialize, within their day. We live in a society that often asks us to get distracted by our past experiences, the fast-paced present, or an urgency towards future goals, and we forget to give ourselves permission to take a break for our whole selves. As a practice, our clinicians value patient care first - this means that your online counselling will be guided by your goals and needs.
