The Gottman Couple Therapy Method is a useful tool in couples therapy to help promote growth and communication in relationships.
See our blog on effective parent-child communication for more information on this topic: allius.ca/blogs/blog
This week's sand tray theme is space! While the astronauts and satellites represent the space around our planet, we can also use these objects to represent space in our own lives. Needing space and asking for it is ok, we all need time with ourselves.
Allius Services has counsellors with immediate availability. Call us at 250-753-0363 or visit our website allius.ca to book with us today. If you are unsure about which service would be best give us a call for a free 15 minute consultation.
Play therapy is one of the wonderful therapy models we can use to help children, adolescents, and even adults to learn how to express their emotions.
Happy Wednesday! This week's sand tray offers a beach scene complete with fish, shells, pirates and more! If you could build a sand tray what figures/objects would you use?
Struggling to introduce a new partner to your children? This blog post offers guidance and support on how to do this in a healthy, communicative way. Check it out here: allius.ca/blogs/blog
Counsellors are known for their wide range of resources. Our bookshelves boast books and workbooks that offer insights, tips, and methods to help both the counsellor and the client. Here are 4 books we recommend that we use in office.
This week's sand tray is up for interpretation! What themes do you see? This sand tray was built with kinetic sand which is one of the many sensory options we have for sand tray work.
Daniel J. Siegel is a clinical professor of psychiatry, and has published many books that educate us on multiple facets of psychotherapy such as Mindsight, attachment, parenting, and children's mental development.
One of the many therapy models we offer is ART! ART is a useful tool that can help clients quickly overcome their trauma. Learn more about it here: acceleratedresolutiontherapy.com/what-is-art/
It can be hard to tell if your child might need counselling. If you are unsure, here are some signs. You can also call us for a free 15 minute consultation on what counselling services could benefit you or your children! See our blog here: allius.ca/blogs/blog
Russ Harris, an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy practitioner and author of The Happiness Trap pushes us to see fear as a useful tool and a way for us to grow! Allius' counsellors are trained in ACT! Learn more by giving us a call or visiting our website
This week we wanted to show that we can also offer Sand Tray therapy digitally!! We have two different sand tray resources that we can use in online sessions. From dragons to zebras to helicopters, this sand tray tool has all the figures you need to express yourself!
Today is World Autism Awareness Day. We acknowledge, embrace, and support those with autism today and every day. At Allius Services we celebrate everyone's differences and stand among those fighting for a more inclusive future.
Lurline Raposo is trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy, a fascinating model developed to help people overcome their traumatic experiences in only a few sessions. Learn more about ART and how it works in this new blog post. allius.ca/blogs/blog
We will be closed on Good Friday and Easter Monday. Happy Easter to everyone and we will be open again on Tuesday April 2nd!
This week's sand tray theme is Easter! Enjoy this spring-time holiday by painting eggs, searching for chocolate, or celebrating with family and friends. What does Easter represent to you?
