Services
Child Psychology
Specialized mental health services for children aged 0-12 using developmentally appropriate techniques. Our clinicians address behavioral issues, anxiety, trauma, and developmental challenges through play therapy, EMDR, and attachment-based approaches. We collaborate with parents to implement practical strategies that improve sleep patterns, emotional regulation, and social skills while addressing academic pressures and family dynamics.
Couples Counselling
Evidence-based therapy for couples facing communication breakdowns, trauma impacts, or parenting conflicts. Our therapists use emotionally focused therapy to improve understanding between partners, address addiction effects, and develop co-parenting strategies. Sessions focus on rebuilding trust, resolving historical resentments, and creating sustainable relationship patterns through structured communication frameworks.
Trauma Therapy
Specialized trauma recovery programs using EMDR, CBT, and prolonged exposure therapy. Our clinicians treat complex trauma from childhood abuse, domestic violence, and adult accidents. We address symptoms like hypervigilance, flashbacks, and emotional dysregulation while helping clients develop coping mechanisms. Treatment integrates somatic approaches and cognitive restructuring to process traumatic memories safely.
Addiction Counselling
Comprehensive treatment for substance abuse and behavioral addictions including gambling, internet, and sex addiction. Our approach combines motivational interviewing, relapse prevention strategies, and trauma-informed care. We address co-occurring mental health conditions like depression and anxiety while helping clients rebuild relationships damaged by addictive behaviors through family systems therapy.
Psychological Assessments
