Brain & Body-Based Counselling to Help you Heal the Root of your Issues.
Our Values

Social Justice
We specialize in treating trauma-related symptoms with the understanding that we are never hurt or healed in isolation. Recognizing our clients' intersections of identity and how that shows up in the therapeutic relationship is an important part of the process. We strive to work from a trauma-informed, feminist, LGBTQ2+-affirming, culturally-sensitive, and anti-racist lens and to create a brave therapeutic space where all people feel welcome, respected, and seen.

Holistic &
Trauma-Informed
In addition to recognizing our clients' social location, we believe it's important to see our clients as whole, complex and embodied humans. We believe trauma is held not only in our conscious memory networks but in our bodies and in parts of us that we sometimes want to keep hidden. That's why our counsellors go beyond talk therapy and use approaches that support holistic healing in the brain, body, and nervous system.

Evidence-
Based
As mental health professionals, it's important to us to provide the best care possible and we know our clients want lasting results from therapy. In order to increase the likelihood of positive outcomes, we use clinically tested and research-backed approaches that have proven safety and effectiveness. Our clinicians are committed to engaging in continuing education in order to enhance our professional competence and expand our treatment options.

Feeling stuck?
We can't change the past, but together we can repair it.
With the right support, you can heal and move forward.
