WHAT IS COUNSELLING?

Many people have many different ideas of what counselling is. For many, the idea of going to counselling is quite unsettling. We hope to take away the stigma of counselling and introduce it as a conversation. Our goal is simple really. We want to be able to sit with you, find out who you are and why you have come to see us, and work together to design a strategy to achieve the goals you have come with.

Sometimes people come to counselling simply because “something doesn’t feel right,” in their life. We are certainly available to help anytime this is the case. Other people, however, have specific issues they want to address. Some of the common issues people come see us about are:

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
• Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
• Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
• Grief and Loss
• Stress Management
• Couples Counselling
• Family Counselling
• Sexual Dysfunction
• Sexuality
• Addictions
• Developmental Disabilities

Whether your reason for coming to us is ambiguous or specific, we would love to work with you to help you reach your goals and enjoy a fulfilling life.
