Aura The Psychotherapy Centre

Aura The Psychotherapy Centre What's your Aura? At Aura our goal is to change the way people think about psychotherapy. An Aura is an atmosphere, a feeling that surrounds us.

We want our communities to embrace accessing therapeutic services like they would embrace going to the doctor if they were sick. The main way we do this is by using a client-centred, collaborative approach, offering high quality, professional psychotherapy services to individuals and couples across Ontario. Our mission is to provide a space where people feel surrounded by an Aura of hope, trust, empathy, and compassion so they feel safe to embrace their journey and grow.

🔥 Fireside Chat with Lindsey | Youth Therapy Part 4 of 4 🌿

This one is for the parents. 💛

In this final installment of our Fireside Chat series, Lindsey closes with the most loving reminder of all: seeking support for your child does not mean something is wrong with them. It means you are paying attention.

You don't have to wait for a crisis. 🌱 If something has shifted in your child, if they seem more withdrawn, more anxious, more angry than usual, that change is worth noticing. The question Lindsey invites parents to sit with isn't "is it bad enough?" It's simply this: would a little extra support help my child? If the answer might be yes, it's worth exploring.

And if your child is resistant? That's okay too. Lindsey encourages parents to check in gently, build that conversation slowly, and honour that ultimately the child has a voice in this process. When young people feel a sense of control over their own sessions, and know that what they share stays confidential, they show up more openly and the work becomes more meaningful. 🍃

At Aura, we offer both 30 and 60 minute sessions to meet your child where they are. And for the kids who worry about not knowing what to say? They don't have to. We will be right there to guide them, every step of the way.

If your heart is telling you your child could use some support, we are here. Reach out anytime. 🌿

🔥 Fireside Chats with Lindsey | Youth Therapy Part 3 of 4 🌿

At the heart of healing is one simple truth: Every child needs to feel like they belong.

In Part 3, Jamie-Lynn and Lindsey explore what client centered care really looks like in practice, and it is as warm and intentional as you might imagine. 🌱

For Lindsey, effective therapy with young people isn't about technique. It's about relationship. By showing up with genuine empathy, acceptance, and a completely non-judgmental presence, Lindsey creates a space where kids feel welcomed, listened to, and truly seen. And when a child feels that kind of safety, something beautiful happens. They begin to process their emotions, work through their struggles, and find their own capacity to solve problems. 💛

Connection isn't always instant though, and Lindsey honours that. Sometimes it takes time for a young person to open up, and so she meets them exactly where they are. Whether that's through a game of Connect Four or another playful activity, these moments aren't just fun. They are purposeful bridges to trust, to attachment, and to deeper conversation.

And for the kids who find it hard to hold onto their thoughts between sessions? Lindsey encourages them to journal their struggles beforehand, so nothing important gets lost when it matters most. 🍃

It's thoughtful. It's gentle. And it's exactly the kind of care our young people deserve.

🔥 Fireside Chat with Lindsey | Youth Therapy Part 2 of 4 🌿

Our kids are carrying more than we often realize.

In Part 2 of this four-part Fireside Chat, Jamie-Lynn sits down with Lindsey Moar, who brings over 10 years of experience working with youth, to explore the very real challenges young people are navigating today. 🌱

Social anxiety. Big emotions that feel impossible to manage. School stress, peer conflict, questions of identity and belonging, and the quiet weight of low self-esteem. Lindsey paints a picture that is both honest and deeply compassionate. Our children aren't failing to cope. They are growing up in a world that asks an enormous amount from them, socially, emotionally, and academically, all while still figuring out who they are and how to take care of their own needs.

It's a lot. And they deserve to be met with understanding, not judgment. 💛

Lindsey speaks beautifully about what counselling can offer young people. A space to build emotional insight, to develop coping strategies, and most importantly, to feel truly heard and accepted. Because when young people feel understood, that's when real change becomes possible. And kids, she reminds us, are so willing to grow. They just need the space to do it.

What do you wish someone had offered you as a young person? We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below. 🍃

🔥 Fireside Chats with Lindsey | Youth Therapy Part 1 of 4 🌿

What does it really mean to support a young person through the hard stuff?

We're so excited to introduce our newest Fireside Chat series, and this one is close to our hearts. Over the next four parts, Jamie-Lynn sits down with Lindsey Moar to explore the world of youth therapy. What it looks like, why it matters, and how it can change everything for a child and their family. 🌱

In this first conversation, Lindsey shares her own journey of what drew her to working with young people, and the experiences that shaped her into the therapist she is today. There is something so special about the way Lindsey speaks about youth and the tender, thoughtful care she brings to this work shines through in every word.

This is just the beginning of a beautiful conversation. Stay tuned for Parts 2, 3, and 4 where Lindsey will dive into why children need support, how she approaches client-centered care, and a heartfelt note to the parents out there. 🍃

We'd love to hear from you. What do you wish more people understood about the emotional lives of children? Drop it in the comments below. 💛
