Making room for the whole experience.
You may be grieving the way things used to be, adjusting to new limitations, managing medical uncertainty, or feeling exhausted by the need to explain your experience to others. Changes in health can affect identity, relationships, independence, work, and the plans you once held for the future.
Counselling is not a substitute for medical or rehabilitation care. It can complement that care by providing support for the emotional and practical realities that often accompany changes in health and life circumstances.
Areas we can explore
Uncertainty and medical stress
Support for the worries, decisions, appointments, and unknowns that can make it hard to feel settled.
Changing abilities, visual impairment and vision loss
Space to process adjustments in vision, energy, mobility, cognition, roles, routines, and the help you may need from others.
Identity, connection, and purpose
A compassionate way to reconnect with what matters to you while making room for a life that may look different than expected.
A practical, compassionate approach
Our work may include finding ways to manage anxiety and fearful thoughts, setting boundaries, communicating your needs, and building routines that support your well-being. We will work with your real circumstances, not against them.
