Services
Psychological Assessment
Our psychological assessments identify cognitive, emotional, and behavioral challenges through evidence-based tools. We evaluate conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD, providing diagnostic clarity and treatment recommendations. Clients receive detailed reports and referrals to appropriate therapies.
Rehabilitation Therapy
Rehabilitation therapy addresses psychological impacts of trauma, illness, or disability. Funded by third parties like WSIB, sessions focus on adjustment, functional recovery, and return-to-work planning. We collaborate with insurers and agencies to ensure comprehensive care.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
CBT services target negative thought patterns and behaviors linked to anxiety, depression, and stress. Our therapists use structured, goal-oriented sessions to build coping strategies, improve emotional regulation, and foster long-term resilience in daily life.
Trauma Treatment
Trauma treatment employs EMDR and somatic interventions to process traumatic memories. Specialized for first responders and veterans, sessions reduce PTSD symptoms, enhance emotional stability, and restore functionality through integrative, trauma-informed care.
