Services

Many people struggle with anxieties or other circumstances that can prevent them from wanting to visit a service at an external location. With online or in home counselling, the counsellor comes to you where you can talk privately and not have to worry about outside distractions. Services are offered to anyone over the age of 18.

Online Counselling

Available to anyone in Canada. Using our video conferencing software, you can speak to a counsellor from any location that suits you. Maybe you are out of town and need to speak with someone, maybe it is hard for you to get to a service agency due to transportation, or maybe you need some help but are not feeling up to leaving the house. Online counselling can fit any of these needs and more. The video consultations are powered by OnCall Health, a Canadian company that is committed to complete privacy between healthcare providers and their clients.

Due to the nature of online counselling, certain services cannot be provided. These include, suicide prevention/crisis services, domestic abuse, any issue involving harm to yourself or others, and minors under the age of 16.

In Home Counselling

Available to anyone in the Sioux Lookout, Ontario, Canada area (an additional fee will be charged for those living outside of the town core). We bring the service to the comfort of your own home.

Phone and Messaging Options

Clients also have the option of using our secure software to speak to a counsellor over the phone or message a counsellor ($10.00/6 months). Please note messaging conversations are not designed for emergencies but for questions in-between sessions with your counsellor.

Clinical Supervision

We can provide clinical supervision as criteria is met for CRPO clinical supervision standards.

*EMDR Therapy

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapeutic approach most commonly used with trauma. It involves bilateral sensory stimulation such as eye movements, tapping, or sounds, administered while you focus on disturbing memories, anxiety, psychological, or somatic symptoms. This process seems to trigger the natural processing of the brain and the nervous system, helping to you to process your memories and emotions to decrease distress.

EMDR Therapy is effective in treating individuals who have experienced difficulties from traumatic experiences, such as assault, motor vehicle accidents, war trauma, torture, natural disasters, sexual abuse, and childhood neglect. In addition to this, EMDR has been used for panic disorder, phobias, performance anxiety, self-esteem issues, and other anxiety-related disorders.

Please contact us for more information about the EMDR process and how it could work for you.
