The Healing Power of Counselling
Why Choose Counselling with our low cost counsellors?
Ali and Amanda, your dedicated intern counsellors, are passionate about helping each client who sits in front of them feel heard, understood, and to have a space that is just for them. Each of our intern counsellors bring their own rich life experience that have influenced them in their decision to become counsellors and are excited to offer their skills and presence to you. Ali and Amanda are also passionate about integrating the role of the body and each person's innate strengths to the counselling process.
Guidance Through Life's Challenges
Life can be overwhelming, and feeling lost, uncertain or anxious are not uncommon. Our counsellors believe that when we have the opportunity to explore and express ourselves, we each hold infinite power for positive growth. We offer therapy as a valuable way to be supported in navigating through the challenges and towards a path of wellbeing that fits you as a unique person.
