Do you struggle with saying no to people? Is asserting yourself difficult at home or work? Do you find yourself feeling low mood, or symptoms of anxiety or stress? Is your relationship causing you grief?
If you've said yes, our therapists are licensed in your province to be able to "teach" you strategies to help you reduce symptoms and improve the quality of your life. Therapy may be covered by your extended healthcare insurance plans. Please ask us for details.
We’re a team of counsellors, psychotherapists, and coaches working relentlessly to provide you the best service. The treatments and techniques our registered clinicians employ have been shown to be the most effective in reducing symptoms and improving the quality of life for people experiencing anxiety, mood, stress and relationship problems.
