How We Can Help
how balance can help you
A happy life is not experienced when everything is perfect, but when everything is in balance.
Balance Counselling is committed to supporting you throughout your difficult experiences. Working with your counselor, you will create an individualized treatment plan, that assists you in moving towards becoming the best version of yourself.
Many clients access services for assistance in managing anxiety and depression symptoms, want to know about healthy, evidence-based coping strategies, or understand why their body’s are responding to stress in the way that it does. Others are looking to understand and change unhealthy coping strategies and looking to build positive responses. Some clients have experienced traumas, and want to work at processing and moving towards not being triggered negatively by those experiences. No matter what your personal situation, Balance Counselling is here to help you. We may have ideas, suggestions or resources to share with you, and can offer alternative perspectives that may be helpful in working through your thoughts. We can provide activities and exercises, that will increase your awareness and skills on managing the scenario.
Some clients feel stuck in their discomfort, and we believe that this discomfort is the ideal point to make powerful and positive changes; changes that move you forward, closer to becoming that version of yourself that you truly are meant to be. If you are ready to make the steps towards this you, we will help you find your balance.

ONLINE COUNSELLING SUPPORT
As our lives become more intertwined with the world of technology, the option of online counselling has evolved. Online counselling is offered, as an easy, confidential and convenient treatment option. Sessions are very similar to what you would experience in the office setting, the only difference, is that it is online via secured video platform. The therapeutic approach, ethics, and responses, are as they would be in an office setting, but allow you the choice to attend from your own home.
