Our Services
Counselling is a therapeutic process aimed at helping individuals, children, families, and couples navigate through various life challenges and emotional difficulties. It provides a safe and confidential space for individuals to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with a trained professional, often called a counsellor or therapist. Through active listening, empathy, and guidance, counsellors assist clients in gaining insight into their problems, developing coping strategies, and making positive changes in their lives.
Individual Counselling
Individual counselling serves as a transformative tool for personal development and healing. Many seek therapy to gain insight into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It helps individuals navigate difficult emotions, process past traumas, and enhance relationships. Counselling fosters self-awareness and self-acceptance, contributing to overall well-being. If you're prepared to instigate positive change and shape the life you desire, Lakeside Clinical Counselling is here to support you.
Couples Counselling
As relationships progress, they often encounter obstacles that can provoke feelings of loneliness within the partnership. These obstacles may stem from communication breakdowns, trust deficits, conflicts, or emotional detachment, all of which can place strains on the relationship, resulting in feelings of sadness, frustration, or anxiety. Therapy offers a secure environment to address these challenges, facilitating constructive dialogue, rebuilding trust, and resolving conflicts effectively. Through therapy, individuals can acquire essential skills and receive the necessary support to cultivate the deep connection they desire. Our therapists are proficient in Emotionally Focused Therapy and Gottman Method Couples Therapy, ensuring comprehensive assistance tailored to your specific needs.
Teen & Children’s Counselling
Our sessions offer a safe space for children and teenagers to explore and understand their emotions, addressing stress, anxiety, and emotional difficulties. We integrate play therapy, art therapy, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to foster resilience and emotional well-being. Play therapy utilizes toys and games for non-verbal expression, benefiting younger children or those struggling with verbal communication. Art therapy provides another avenue for self-expression through drawings and paintings. Additionally, we adapt cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to teach coping skills and problem-solving strategies. Family involvement is crucial, addressing familial dynamics and supporting overall well-being. With these approaches and family engagement, we effectively support children in navigating challenges and promoting healthy development.
Family Counselling
Family dynamics play a crucial role in individual well-being. Our Family and Co-Parenting Counselling services aim to strengthen family bonds, enhance communication, and navigate through transitions, especially during significant life events or post-divorce. We assist in fostering a collaborative co-parenting environment, supporting families in adjusting and thriving through changes. Our family counsellors have specialized training in conflict resolution and mediation. They employ evidence-based approaches to address underlying issues, promote understanding, and rebuild trust within the family unit. Our counsellors strive to create a supportive atmosphere where each member feels heard and validated. With expertise in diverse family structures and dynamics, they guide families in developing effective coping mechanisms, setting boundaries, and fostering resilience. They are committed to empowering families to navigate challenges together, fostering stronger, more harmonious relationships.
