Our Mission
At Conscious Counselling and Wellness, we are dedicated to fostering healing and growth through a compassion-focused and trauma-informed approach. Our mission is to provide a safe and empathetic space where individuals can explore their inner landscapes, overcome challenges, and embark on a journey towards positive transformation.
Guided by the principles of compassion, we strive to create an atmosphere where every person feels seen, heard, and valued. Our team of dedicated counselors is committed to understanding the unique experiences and perspectives of each individual, recognizing the profound impact of trauma on mental well-being.
We believe in the inherent resilience of the human spirit, and our mission is to empower individuals to navigate their personal struggles with strength and self-compassion. By integrating trauma-informed practices into our counseling services, we aim to create an environment that fosters trust, safety, and healing.
At Conscious Counselling and Wellness, we stand for inclusivity, cultural sensitivity and humility, and a commitment to social justice. Our mission extends beyond traditional counseling by advocating for systemic change and working towards a world where everyone has equitable access to compassionate and trauma-informed mental health support.
Together, we strive to be a beacon of hope, promoting mental wellness and resilience. Through our compassion-focused and trauma-informed approach, we aspire to facilitate transformative journeys towards self-discovery, healing, and a brighter future for all.
Providing you with a safe space to connect
Client-Centered and Trauma-Informed
Our approach to counselling is compassionate, trauma-informed, and biopsychosocial/wholelistic. We see each client as a unique individual with unique needs based on a variety of contributing factors to whatever situation they are in.
"Trauma-informed" means that we are aware of the many ways adverse or difficult life experiences can impact a person's wellness, personally and interpersonally, mind, body and spirit.
We operate under a broad definition of "trauma," whereby we understand that any life event from infanthood to adulthood can impact that way folks show up in the world.
We aim to create a therapeutic environment focused on the safety, trust, empowerment, transparency, and collaboration with every client.
Our expert therapists specialize in various therapeutic modalities such as psychodynamic therapy, internal family systems therapy, embodied recovery approaches, somatically integrated approaches, sensory-oriented approaches, polyvagal theory.
We have trauma therapists available to provide trauma-specific therapies such as: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Somatic Therapies, Trauma-Informed Yoga Integration.
The therapeutic modality used depends entirely on the needs and goals of the client and the preferences of the individual therapist assigned.
Overall Wellness
We use an approach that recognizes how our biology, psychology, and social well-being are interconnected. We believe in order to lead a meaningful and fulfilling life, one must work toward discovering a balance of wellness in the following realms: occupational, physical, social, intellectual, spiritual, and emotional.
The Science and Art of Mindfulness
We utilize mindfulness tools to allow clients to develop the skills to observe and regulate their thought patterns, bodily sensations, and impulses without judgment. Paired with the active practice of self-compassion, clients develop an awareness of the universality of their challenges and can work toward solutions filled with self-acceptance.
