Rediscover Trust

Relationships are meaningful and multi-faceted. Sometimes life gets in the way of partners being able to feel connected with one another. Our goal is to help partners get back to intimacy, love, and trust.

 

We help partners fighting against each other to come together as a team in order to resolve conflicts and issues within and outside the relationship. Our team understands that each partnership has its own unique shining moments and struggles, we strive to honour the bond between all partners and to bring couples back towards nurturing, building, and celebrating the foundation they have created together.

We work with couples to help them reignite their passions, their teamwork, and their communication. Sometimes it's the people closest to us that we end up misunderstanding and hurting.

There are so many things in this world that stand to divide and alienate us from those we love, Our goal is to help partners get back to intimacy, love, and trust in order to build a stronger and more resilient partnership.

Trauma & Post-Trauma

 Therapy

Rediscover Hope

All of us go through the winding footpaths of life and at one point in time experience moments that create long lasting impacts and changes in ourselves, our environment, and in the trajectory of our lives. Sometimes those experience can be positive, and sometimes they are negative. These negative experiences are we we define as traumatic events. 

The experience of trauma and traumatic events can be painful and excruciating. Sometimes these experiences leave us at more than just at a loss, but can continue to cause us pain and fear. These experiences can alter the way your mind works. Creating physical and emotional responses to triggers that remind you of your trauma. Even when you are unaware of these triggers, you can be left feeling overactive and hyper-vigilant to certain moments and interactions. The post traumatic consequences (often known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD) of these triggers is that you can feel like you are on constant alert to prevent future danger and pain; even when there is none to be presently found. If left untreated it can lead to one feeling loss and overwhelmed and increase rates of risky or dangerous behaviours (i.e. increased aggression and violence, increased substance use, increased physical and mental distress). 

 

Our goal is help you heal. We offer a safe space and environment to begin the process of talking about your pain as a means to start processing what had happened to you. Talking about trauma doesn't always mean retelling your story. We work with each individual uniquely in order to find the path of healing that is more effective for them. We utilize a variety of techniques including a highly effective form of trauma therapy called EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help folks through this process in order to help you rediscover hope and empowerment. Understanding our past gives us an ability to take control what we want our future to look like. We believe that all people deserve to live a life free from fear and pain, all of us deserve a little help along the way.
