Family counselling is a type of therapy that helps family members improve communication and resolve conflicts. It can be helpful for families experiencing a variety of issues, such as divorce, addiction, or mental health concerns. The goal of family counselling is to strengthen relationships and promote a healthier family dynamic.

Areas of focus that fall under the booking umbrella of Family counselling include the following:

A Note on Attendance

Family counselling is designed to support communication, conflict resolution, and relationship dynamics between parents, caregivers, and mature minors (typically teens who can engage in adult-level conversations). Because sessions often involve emotionally complex or sensitive topics—such as parenting challenges, boundaries, or past conflict—they require a certain level of emotional awareness and maturity.  Family therapy is designed for two or more participants. The focus is on relationships, communication, and patterns that happen between family members, so it requires more than one person in the room.

​

Children and younger teens may not benefit fully from this format, as the conversations may feel overwhelming, confusing, or not developmentally appropriate.

​

Instead, we offer:

• Teen Counselling: A safe, private space where teens can explore their own thoughts, emotions, and challenges with support tailored to their age and stage.

• Child Counselling: Play-based or developmentally appropriate therapy designed to help younger children express themselves and work through emotional or behavioral difficulties.

• Parent Support & Strategies: Guidance for parents to better understand and respond to their child’s needs, strengthen connection, and support their child’s growth outside of joint sessions.

•  

This approach ensures that each person gets the kind of support that fits them best, while still working toward healthier family relationships overall.
