Estimated Read Time: 6 Minutes
At Transformation Counselling, we honor the strength and resilience of Indigenous communities. We recognize that experiences such as trauma, grief, and loss can deeply affect one's well-being. Our compassionate team is dedicated to supporting First Nations, Inuit, and Métis individuals through both online and in-person counselling services.
Our Therapeutic Approaches
We offer various therapies to help with different feelings and challenges:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy: This therapy assists your brain in processing difficult memories, making them less distressing over time. Research indicates that EMDR is effective in treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), aiding many individuals in their healing journey.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): This method helps you change negative thought patterns, reducing feelings of anxiety and sadness.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT encourages you to accept your feelings and commit to actions that align with your values, promoting mental flexibility.

Improved Mental Health: Experience enhanced emotional and mental well-being.
