Psychotherapy, also known as talk therapy or counselling, is a professional relationship that helps you improve your mental health and achieve your goals. Therapy normally takes the form of a guided conversation between you and your chosen therapist. Working together, you may develop skills and strategies needed to effectively manage difficult thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, allowing you to navigate any challenges and find inner strength.
Our therapists bring a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive lens to everyone they support, working first and foremost to ensure you feel safe and heard.

In the case of an immediate danger to yourself or others, calling 911 should be your first course of action.
Your therapist will start by getting a thorough understanding of your background, your mental health history, current struggles, and goals.

During your sessions, your therapist can help you work through repressed emotions, reframe situations in your life, and develop coping strategies.
