The courage to heal
…begins with the courage to seek help. In-person and online therapy for individuals, couples and families.
Taking your first steps toward counselling
Looking for a counsellor can be a vulnerable and confusing experience. The counselling relationship is one of the more intimate connections that people develop but how do we know who will be a good fit? What do we look for? At Corage Counselling, we are sensitive to and aware of these questions and will work collaboratively with you to answer them and to support you in any way we can in your process.
Have a discussion with us today through our complimentary virtual consult. Book here.
“I feel so heard and listened to. It’s like finally exhaling a breath I didn’t even know I was holding in. I truly wish I had come to counselling earlier!”
How is counselling helpful?
Life is not lived in a straight line.
It can be downright overwhelming at times! Perhaps you are at a place where you do not see a light at the end of the tunnel. But that does not mean it does not exist.
Counselling can help you consider a road not travelled and guide you towards surprising sources of resilience and resources. At Corage Counselling, we offer a supportive space where:
your authentic self is welcomed
you can talk with someone about what is most important to you
new skills/tools based on evidence-based practices will be explored
Clients have said that in such a space, they feel calm and energized; this in turn fosters creativity and new ways of being, thinking, and new solutions for their challenges.
“Finding words where words were absent before and, as a result, being able to share your deepest pain and deepest feelings with another human being. This is one of the most profound experiences we can have” ~ Bessel Van De Kolk
Such a connection with another can bring healing to:
Burnout
Anxiety and depression, feelings of stuckness
Family and relationship conflicts
Grief, loss & meaninglessness
Chronic mental health challenges
Sexual assault and abuse
Chronic loneliness, shame and guilt
It is especially important that if you have experienced traumatic events in your life, which most of us have, a safe space exists for you where that experience can be named. We can be that space for you.
What to expect
Your counselling journey begins with a free 20-minute consultation to allow you to decide if we would be a good fit for you.
Initial sessions are collaborative explorations of core challenges, goals for therapy, and options for therapeutic approaches. Together, you and your therapist will map out a path for your healing journey that unfolds in subsequent sessions. Depending on your unique path and the type of service you access, modalities will be different.
