Learn about now psychotherapy can help you. Our team of trained mental health professionals can provide assistance for short-term challenges or long-term ongoing mental health concerns.

Awareness

You will be invited to notice what is coming up for you.  This could be thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, images, dreams – and to get curious. This form of mindfulness enables a subtle, yet powerful shift in perspective.  Which can help you make clearer choices, express more of yourself, handle everyday stresses, cope with anxiety, and make meaningful connections.

Acceptance

When you are accepted without judgement it becomes easier to make room for aspects of yourself. Including aspects that you typically push aside or reject.

Openess

Clients report more willingness to open up to vulnerable emotions.  As opposed to being reactive or seeking distraction through addictions or hurtful behaviours.

Creativity

Creativity is something we all have and can enrich our lives with. Unblocking our stuck places involves addressing the old beliefs or burdens of childlike and vulnerable parts of us. This can create pain and take a lot of energy. Once released, this energy can be used for playing and being – key aspects of creativity.

Connection

As you build rapport and safety with your therapist, you may feel a growing sense of being in this together. Starting therapy allows you to be heard and understood by another feeling more energized and alive. This energy can be cultivated within, as you direct compassion toward yourself, and brought to your relationships to enhance intimacy or deepen bonds.
