WHEN SHOULD I SEEK COUNSELLING?

Life has its ups and downs, and there are times in life when each of us feels overwhelmed. We understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help. Solace Psychology offers a soothing, comforting space to help you feel welcomed and at ease once you arrive. Reaching out is truly a sign of courage and wisdom. Asking for help before a problem gets really bad is best, as this can prevent it from spreading into other areas of your life, such as relationships, work, or school, or leading to addictions. Whether you are experiencing signs of anxiety, stress, or depression, or you’re just needing a mental health check-up, you will benefit from counselling.

DO I NEED A PRESCRIPTION OR REFERRAL FROM MY DOCTOR TO BEGIN COUNSELLING?

No, a referral is not required, although we do receive many referrals from local physicians, psychiatrists, counsellors, schools, community agencies, and insurance companies.

HOW DO I BOOK AN APPOINTMENT?

CLICK BELOW to book your appointment. Solace Psychology is open Monday to Saturday, days and evenings, to accommodate you and your family. We look forward to meeting with you and helping you get started on your journey to wellness.

WHAT DO YOU ACCEPT FOR PAYMENT?

We accept cash, e-transfer, debit, MasterCard, and Visa.

Your sessions are likely covered by your employee insurance benefits and we offer direct billing to most companies.

* You can also claim your sessions on your annual income tax statements as a health expense.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM COUNSELLING?

Counselling can result in many benefits, including: gaining new perspectives, achieving self-acceptance and self-compassion, improving relationships, leading a more meaningful and fulfilling life, boosting self-esteem and confidence, learning effective tools for coping with life’s challenges, and reducing distressing symptoms.

Your Psychologist will work with you to develop counselling goals and create a customized roadmap for personal growth. Counselling works by establishing a collaborative, trusting therapeutic relationship with me to feel safe enough to explore and process your emotional experiences. Although it can be uncomfortable at times to face your pain, you will not be alone as your Psychologist will be right alongside you on your journey to growth, wellness, and freedom. Once you uncover and work through the roots of your problems you will notice positive changes blossoming within various areas of your life.

HOW LONG IS EACH SESSION & HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

Sessions are approximately 50 minutes, allowing 10 minutes for session notes and charting. When you come in for your session, we will discuss how many sessions you will need as well as the frequency of sessions.

WHAT IF IT ISN'T THE RIGHT FIT?

After the first session if you have any concerns or just feel that the relationship is not the right fit, we will be happy to support you in suggesting other community groups, Psychologists or ways forward.
