Family dysfunction runs on a spectrum. Some recognize their dynamic is imperfect and try to support each other more. But others refuse to address their issues, leading to blame, a lack of boundaries, and, often, chaos.

While summer is often seen as a time for fun and relaxation, for many teens it brings emotional challenges—loss of structure, increased isolation, and tension at home. It’s okay if summer doesn’t feel like a break.

At Onyx Counselling, we support teens through these ups and downs. Reach out today to book a session. 🤎

We live in a world where we wouldn’t dream of skipping a dentist appointment or a haircut — but therapy often gets left behind.

At Onyx, we believe mental health care deserves the same respect and priority.

Therapy isn’t only for crises. It’s where self-awareness grows, healing deepens, and life becomes more manageable. If your calendar is full of “shoulds” but missing what you truly need, let’s change that.

Schedule a session today and start showing up for your whole self — mind and body. 📅

Managing anxiety doesn’t mean eliminating it—it means learning how to move through it with support.

Having a simple toolkit—like grounding exercises, journaling, or a calming playlist—can help bring you back to center when emotions feel too big.

If you’re ready to explore new coping strategies or better understand your anxiety, therapy is a great place to start. Reach out to Onyx today. 🤎

There are many reasons a therapist might end treatment: the therapeutic fit isn’t right, your goals have shifted, or there are ethical concerns that need addressing.

While it can feel personal, ending therapy is often a thoughtful, ethical decision made to protect your well-being. At Onyx, we believe in transparency and care—even in transitions.

July 24th is International Self-Care Day—a reminder that showing up for ourselves matters, even in small ways.

Self-care looks different for everyone. Whether it’s a walk, a journal session, or five quiet minutes of breathing—what matters is that it feels supportive to you.

What’s one way you’re honouring your mental and emotional needs today? If you’re looking for more intentional support, therapy can help. Reach out to Onyx.

Grieving can feel like you’re lost in a fog—and everyone expects you to “be okay” again. But there’s no timeline for loss.

Grief counselling creates space to express your pain, learn coping tools, and explore meaning after loss. Whether your grief is fresh or long-standing, therapy can support your healing.

You’re not alone. Reach out to Onyx if you’re ready to talk.

Therapists are people first. And just like anyone else, we sometimes need a place to process, reset, and heal.

At Onyx, we embrace our humanity—within ourselves and our team. It’s why we value community, connection, and transparency. Therapists having therapists is not weakness—it’s wisdom.

If you’re looking for a therapist who understands the emotional load you’re carrying, reach out. We’re here to support you.
