Renewing Minds, Strengthening Families

Welcome to Sound Mind Counselling and Family Therapies, where hope is rediscovered and families thrive.

Even the strongest minds can grow weary.

Welcome. We may not know what brought you here today, but we imagine you’re carrying something that feels heavy—too heavy to carry on your own.

It might be pain you can’t quite name, grief that lingers, tension in your relationships, or a sense of being stuck and overwhelmed. Whatever it is, you don’t have to face it alone.

At Sound Mind Counselling and Family Therapies, we’re here to help you and your family rediscover clarity, connection and hope.

Life can feel chaotic and uncertain, but together, we can make sense of it and find a path toward healing.

Our approach

We believe that everyone deserves a safe and supportive space to feel heard and understood. Here, you can speak openly, knowing you’ll be met with empathy, compassion and zero judgement.

Our approach is eclectic, tailoring our sessions to meet your unique needs.
