Our Approach

Our work in the mental health field has grounded us in a deep belief that healing happens through connection — with self, with others, and within safe, attuned therapeutic relationships. At Coast Care Counselling, we offer a collaborative and compassionate space rooted in trauma-informed and client-centred values, where your safety, autonomy, and lived experience are always prioritized.

Working from a trauma-informed lens means we understand how overwhelming or painful life experiences can shape your nervous system, relationships, and sense of self. We aim to co-create a space that feels steady, supportive, and responsive to your individual pace and needs.

We specialize in trauma treatment and recovery, offering evidence-based care for those navigating the effects of trauma, stress, anxiety, or emotional overwhelm. Our approach emphasizes empowerment, emotional regulation, and reconnection — helping you rebuild safety and trust in yourself and your world.

Our work is integrative and relational. We draw from evidence-based modalities such as:

• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

• Internal Family Systems (IFS)

• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

• Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)

These approaches help us explore emotional and relational patterns, nurture self-compassion, and support your inherent capacity to heal.

At the heart of our practice is the belief that meaningful change happens in the presence of a supportive, attuned relationship. We’re honoured to walk alongside you in your healing journey.
