Therapy services are developed collaboratively and based on the needs of each individual.  The best fitting approach may include one, or many, therapeutic modalities or counselling techniques.  Every strategy will be applied in a safe, respectful, non-judgemental, and confidential manner, allowing you to set therapeutic goals aimed at achieving positive change.  Below are some of the most commonly used therapeutic approaches.
