Positive Thought Counselling

Life at times can be overwhelming. The challenges of our lived experiences, childhood trauma, finances, and relationships can get the better of us. If you are struggling, it is not always easy to seek help. Healing can begin when you acknowledge the hurt and allow yourself to (1) create space for it, (2) understand it and, (3) to heal through it. We are here to offer support by taking on a trauma informed approach where counselling sessions will help you navigate the challenges and opportunities that life send your way. We can discuss ways in which to cope while also identifying your strengths and values. 

The taboo of counselling and mental health across cultures presents a significant barrier...but it doesn't have to. We are at the forefront of advocating for change and breaking the stigma that prevents many of us from seeking the help that we need. 

The Counselling Framework focuses on observing and exploring how thoughts, feelings and behaviour interact with each other and with external stressors. Along the way, counselling sessions will focus on:

• Establishing trust and safety
• Understanding the issue
• Implementing an Action plan
• Identifying strengths, skills and coping strategies
• Feedback and Follow Up

We have experience working with youth and adults from various ethnic backgrounds who might be struggling with:  

• Trauma
• Spiritual Identity 
• Anger Management
• Symptoms of Anxiety
• Symptoms of Depression
• Life Transitions
• Intercultural Conflicts
• Inter-generational Conflicts

Collectively, we can explore how challenges can become opportunities, barriers can become stepping stones and hardships turn into ease. Let us assist you in empowering yourself to live a life of fulfillment and contentment. It is not easy...but is not impossible either!
