What We Do
At Avant Counselling, we provide professional and comprehensive client-centered counselling and integrated mind body therapeutic services. We assist and support individuals, couples, and groups experiencing personal difficulties by providing strategies to cope and move forward in life. Our integrative and innovative approach to combining yoga with talk therapy (yoga psychotherapy) provides a holistic mode of recovery.
We utilize Trauma-Informed Practice because we understand that many people go through traumatic experiences in their lifetimes that impact them physically, mentally and spiritually. We value supporting recovery through understanding and partnership, and believe in creating a safe, supportive and empowered environment for our clients.
At Avant Counselling, we work from a Bio-Psycho-Social-Spiritual framework, which acknowledges the many interconnected aspects of peoples’ lives – the body, the mind, the social, and the spiritual. This holistic perspective acknowledges the multiple levels of stress one may experience from physical health issues to emotional well-being. It also allows us to target these various areas and identify specific opportunities for healing and growth. We believe every client has unique needs and that our services should reflect this by being sensitive and adaptable to each individual's situation and preferences.
