INDIVIDUAL AND FAMILY COUNSELLING and REGISTERED PSYCHOTHERAPY

Children and adults seek counselling when they are experiencing changes in their lives and they want help with the transition and adjustment to these changes. Some come to get help with managing stress, anxiety, anger, or depression. Some feel stuck as they keep repeating negative behaviours and making bad choices, and they feel powerless to change. Others seek help because they are experiencing feelings that they don’t understand and these feelings are affecting their ability to function normally or cope. Others come just to have a sounding board and check themselves out.

The reasons that people begin counselling are as diverse and as personal as the individual seeking therapy. Counselling and therapy can be a very useful resource for dealing with any issue or crisis.
