We do NOT specialize in substance use, eating disorders, or severe psychiatric disorders.

Access local supports.

Lean on your community, support is just around the corner.

Children & Youth

Our team works with children and youth aged 4 years and up. Therapists draw from a variety of modalities and often include play and arts-based activities to engage young people in meaningful conversations, help them process life changes, and learn new strategies to deal with difficult situations and feelings.

Adults

Our team uses a client-centred approach and evidence-based techniques to help individuals gain clarity, develop coping skills, and foster resilience in facing life's complexities. Take the time to invest in yourself and discover new paths to wellbeing and personal growth.

Integrative Attachment
Family Therapy (IAFT)

IAFT is a parent-focused, evidence-based approach that helps families strengthen attachment relationships. Through structured activities and guided discussions, IAFT fosters positive connection and empowers children to confidently express themselves with the people they love.

Couple in love

Couples

Our team offers a supportive, non-judgmental space for partners to strengthen communication, rebuild connection, and navigate challenges together. Our approach focuses on understanding patterns, fostering empathy, and supporting healthier, more respectful communication and relationships.

Online counselling

Many of our clinicians offer online counselling as a convenient solution for those seeking professional support from the comfort and privacy of their own home.
