Separation and divorce can be an emotionally difficult time. It can help to have a supportive, objective, and caring person to talk to. We understand the overwhelm people feel as they navigate legal procedures, confront financial uncertainties, and experience the emotional toll this can have on parents and children alike. We will be there to help you through this experience and move forward with the clarity, confidence, and courage to transform your life, regain your sense of self, and find a renewed vision for your future.
If you have children, we can also help you with decisions related to co-parenting, and help you navigate changes in child-parent relationships. We understand that this is a difficult transition, but it can be made easier with support.
We provide a safe and supportive space for family connection. This service is for family members who have a court order stating that their visits with children must be supervised. We understand that this can be a stressful and awkward time. We offer a welcoming, non-judgmental place for you to visit and have fun with your child. We have safeguards in place to ensure your comfort, confidentiality and safety. Our counsellors can offer age-appropriate activities, encouragement or redirection when helpful, as well as information on child development if requested. Our goal is for you and your child to enjoy your time together and look forward to your next visit.
Separation can be hard on couples and their children. It can be important that children have a say in the decisions that effect them and a Voice of the Child report can help accomplish that. This is a process consisting of 3 -4 sessions with the child where they can explore their emotions and gain clarity about their situation. These child counsellors use activities to help them express their feelings, beliefs and needs. The counsellor will then write up a report and on the last visit, will review it with the child to ensure that it says what the child wants others to know in a way that feels comfortable for them. Opinions of the counsellor are not a part of the Voice of the Child report and no recommendations are made. It is simply an opportunity for the child’s voice to be heard.
