psychotherapy sessions

At Cadence Counselling and Psychotherapy we work from a counselling perspective that emphasizes warmth, compassion, and curiosity. We also recognize the wisdom already within our clients and aim to structure our work around their existing strengths.  

Our approach to therapy is integrative, meaning we use a combination of evidence-based treatments to inform our practice. These include but are not limited to Person-Centered Therapy, Compassionate Inquiry, Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Trauma-Informed Therapy, Relational Life Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Play Therapy and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT).
