Services
Individual Therapy
We are a team of extraordinarily experienced therapists who provide a safe confidential one on one space to explore your life, relationships, mental health and or addictions concerns. We come from an interpersonal, emotional focused approach, seeking to understand your life story and your relationships. We work collaboratively with you to help you move forward in the life that you hope for.
Individual Therapy is good for us at any time in our lives, not just when there is a crisis or difficult time, it could be a good time to show yourself compassion and take the time to focus on yourself and reflect on your needs.
In addition, therapy assists in life's most difficult transitions such as; trying to forgive and let go, the breaking point of a relationship, workplace stress or an unexpected change. Feelings such as grief, sadness and anger can feel paralyzing. We may turn to unhealthy and harmful coping strategies to blunt the pain, numb or forget.
Understanding our emotions and learning healthy coping skills is tremendously valuable.
We use evidence based therapies such as Emotion Focused Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Trauma Incident Reduction, Mentalization Based Therapy and Harm Reduction Psychotherapy to help you explore yourself and your relationships. We take a non judgemental approach and learn about your life to best understand how the therapeutic relationship can best support you.

Mental Health & Addiction
We take a biopsychosocial and harm reduction approach to substance use. We believe substance use and mental health do not exist separate from one another. We believe that substance use which is causing problems in our lives is not just about being addicted to alcohol or drugs. There is always a root cause to our alcohol or drug use.
Some root causes could be:
Grief or loss
History of trauma
Change in physical wellness
Relationship break down,
Biology and family history
A feeling of loneliness or not belonging
We approach substance use with a non judgemental attitude. We remain curious about the root causes and we meet you where you are at. We work in collaboration with you to determine what your barriers to change may be and then explore a range of options such as abstinence, moderation or other harm reducing options to help you feel better.

Group Therapy
Group Work is a very effective form of therapy. Connection with other human beings is innate to our wellness. Groups allow for members to feel supported and accepted with others who may be going through the same struggles. It can help reduce stigma and isolation and help us gain confidence while exploring new ways of interacting with others. Group therapy can provide beautiful and deep connections and experiences between members which provide healing.
Cost for Services
Cost for groups will vary based on size and length of the group offered.
