Catherine Sullivan Counselling Services Regain confidence. Re-establish connections. Re-build a sense of safety. Accepting new clients! In person appointments on Friday mornings.

EMDR can help you re-process traumatic memories so they aren’t disturbing anymore. Talk therapy can help you learn new ways to understand your feelings. I work with those who have experienced trauma to help them heal and gain a better understanding of how to move forward. I now offer I-CBT to help treat OCD. This is an upstream treatment that targets the obsessional doubt(s) underlying the compulsive behaviour(s). I can help you regain your confidence, re-establish connections with yourself and others, and rebuild your sense of safety. I offer a safe space for you to unpack the relationship patterns that haven’t been working, and explore how trauma may be impacting your life. Together we’ll rebuild the foundation of your relationships with yourself and others. Using an eclectic mix of therapeutic techniques, including EMDR and I-CBT, I can help you begin to feel like yourself again. From this stronger foundation you can move forward and not have your past trauma(s) continue to affect you in the present. You can learn how to re-shape obsessional narratives into reality based ones. By reconnecting with yourself, you can learn to regulate your emotions and set healthy boundaries in your relationships with yourself and others.

There are two new modules - one on child protection and one on family law. We know these are scary and things people worry about when leaving an IPV relationship so we've got you covered.
We also added quizzes to each module as recommended by our awesome beta testers. There is also a bonus recording of shows and books that I've read/seen since we recorded module 3.

I don't usually get political but the upcoming Federal Election is too important to stay silent about.
If Pierre Poliviere wins we will have a Conservative PM, a Conservative Premier and Donald Trump and that my friends is a recipe for disaster.

If you resonated with any of the things in this post then voting Conservative in the upcoming election is not the way to go. They are not interested in ending or upholding any of these rights and in many cases they want to reduce them. Not sure if they'll go as far as in the States but I don't want to find out!

Below is information on voting strategically to help stop a conservative from winning in your riding. There is also information on where to vote.

How can we avoid this? By VOTING!
I know people say that their vote doesn't count or won't do anything but they are WRONG! It's important to have your say and voting is the way to do it.
If voter turnout is low the people who do tend to vote are the more privileged few and they have a tendency to be conservative. The conservatives pass bills that are hamful to women, marginalized communities, people with mental health issues, people with disabilities and the list goes on.
So if you don't want to have them running both the province and the country for the next 4 years you need to VOTE my friend.
