Individual Counselling
Individual Counselling is known by many names... Counselling, therapy, and psychotherapy to name a few. They all have one thing in common: They allow someone the space to work through the things going on in their life, without judgement. Our Kelowna therapists provide a safe environment for you to process these experiences.
Counselling can be helpful in many ways. Regardless of what brings you here today, we can help you find someone who will be a great fit for you. Whether you are going through a life transition, are dealing with difficulties outside of your usual experience, needing help coping, or even just a space to talk, we are here to help. Whether you visit our clinic or choose online therapy in BC, meaningful change is possible.

Relationship Counselling
Relationships occur between you and everyone you know. There are intimate relationships, friendships, parent-child relationships, sibling relationships and even a relationship with your own self. Relationship counselling can help you and the people closest to you find ways to communication, experience conflict, and find easier ways to connect with each other. We offer inclusive couples therapy in Kelowna to support all relationship dynamics.
Relationship counselling is unique in that the appointments are a mix of personal appointments and appointments with all involved in the relationship. Generally, we will meet together first, then one on one for an appointment before coming back together. We will discuss how everyone desires to move forward and what format is going to best serve you. Services are always geared towards what is going to work best for the collective.

Family Counselling
Family counselling is designed for any group of people belonging to their version of what family means. This can include parents, children, siblings, grandparents, caregivers and even friends at times. The goal of family counselling is to help everyone understand and support one another through collaborative mental health support.
There are many reasons why people may come in for family counselling. Oftentimes, the topics centre around addictions, mental health, moving, ageing, trauma, and conflict. At its core, family counselling provides a space for understanding and communication. People learn to communicate more effectively, and even find a version of relationship that works for everyone involved.

EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a unique therapy founded by Dr. Francine Shapiro that treats present-day difficulties as symptoms of holding impactful memories that we may or may not have full access to. Bilateral stimulation, usually in the form of back-and-forth eye movement, helps people to access memories and get around cognitive blocks or protections for the purpose of processing those memories that are unprocessed, partially processed, and/or stored in a dysfunctional way. Our practitioners provide trauma-informed EMDR in the Okanagan.
EMDR is commonly used in cases where trauma is a major contributing factor, such as with victims of recent accidents or clients diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). However, even seemingly “small” traumatic events can impact the way we think, our core beliefs, and the often dysfunctional ways that we cope and protect ourselves, so EMDR can be helpful in many cases of depression, anxiety, and other common mental health difficulties.

Youth 9+
Counsellors who work with youth are trained and experienced in approaches that make sense specifically to children and youth. This can include art or play therapy, and is aimed at helping children make sense of what is going on in their minds, bodies and lives in a way that they can understand. Counselling addresses issues specific to their growth, development, mental health and general well-being, providing essential youth counselling services in BC.
Adolescence is so much more than just a phase of a person’s life. It is a period of change in regards to biology and psychology, but usually also in a person’s social life, adaptive skills, economic dependence, education, and role in society. It is not surprising that this can be a time of stress for many as they explore who they are and how to express that.

Sexuality
Sexuality counselling helps people learn about their own sexuality, and addresses various difficulties someone may have around sex. It can be for individuals or people in relationships, and is a form of talk therapy within an affirming therapeutic space. There is no physical contact in the office during counselling. People in counselling are often times sent home with homework to try at home instead.
Sexuality is defined as the way a person relates to sex, relationships, orientation and identity. Essentially, it is the way they express themselves as a sexual being. It can therefore include gender expression, sexual orientation, personal values, what they have been taught about sex/self, religion, culture, sexual desire, self-image, and sexual interests.
