Next Level Counselling and Mediation

07/17/2023

Effective Tuesday, September 5, 2023, I will be taking an education leave from counselling and mediation services. There are a few counselling agencies that are starting up that I can refer to. During my education leave, I will only be doing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) for trauma reprocessing as there is nobody local that I can refer to. Plus I am a huge supporter of that modality and I feel honoured to bear witness to people transforming their traumas.

I’ve been asked what counselling programs I offer. I offer: Essential Skills for Success which deals with anxiety, depression, goal-setting, communication, and maintenance of new skills. I also offer Anger Management which is based on both Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)(Emotions Management). I also offer a Fostering Respectful Relationships Program (individual). I also offer couples counselling based on the Gottman Method. Certificates are provided for successful completion of the programs in case an employer or 3rd party requires confirmation of completion. No certificate is provide for couples counselling. I’m extremely busy but I understand help is on the way and I will gladly refer to other resources if I cannot assist.
