At Aware Counselling and Therapy we believe that everyone deserves a safe, supportive space to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.  Our clinic was founded on the understanding that emotional and physical well-being are deeply interconnected, and that true healing begins when we treat both as one. 

We centre principles of compassion, empathy, and respect, with a mission to help you navigate life’s challenges and build emotional resilience. We offer a compassionate, trauma informed approach to mental health and wellbeing that honours your entire experience.

Our Services:

Therapy

Individual in person therapy is offered at our clinic in Uxbridge. We offer day, evening, and Saturday appointments. 

Virtual services for when you can’t make it into the office, guaranteeing you get the care you need, when you need it.

Walk and Talk Therapy is a form of therapy that takes place outdoors while walking, rather than sitting in a traditional office setting. It combines the benefits of physical movement, exposure to nature, and therapeutic conversation, creating a more relaxed and dynamic environment for self-exploration and healing.  Uxbridge is the trail capital of Canada, so there are many options available to explore the benefits of outdoor based therapy right outside of the office. 


Psychological Assessments

Psychological assessment services for adults (18+), designed to help adults gain greater clarity and understanding on their journey to self discovery. These may include exploring:

  • Neurodivergence (ADHD and/or Autism)

  • Learning Disabilities

  • Mental Health

Assessments are collaborative and centred on your unique experiences and goals.
