Many individuals assume that if you seek out Counselling/Psychotherapy, it means that you’re weak, incompetent, and unable to cope with life. They may even think that counselling is a last resort in a desperate situation. If this is your perspective, GET CARE Canada wants to challenge you to think again.
Counselling/Psychotherapy is a scheduled opportunity to look inward – with trained professional guidance – and find out what’s really going on inside your mind and heart. We all need to conduct self-checks of this nature from time to time. Some of us need more help than others, but it’s not easy for any of us, especially in this day and age. The pace of modern life doesn’t lend itself to quiet introspection. Stress and emotions can have a blinding effect. If you want to cultivate real self-awareness, then, you have to be intentional about it. Counselling/Psychotherapy can be a vital part of that process.
When the circumstances of life toss you around, it’s easy to become disoriented. Counselling/ Psychotherapy is simply a way of pressing the “reset button” and gaining a new perspective after you’ve been knocked down. It’s a chance to invite a supportive presence to walk with you through the dark places until you can find your way out into the light. If you are in need of a supportive presence offered in a Counselling/Psychotherapy relationship, please contact Rev. David Dwarka at 289.207.8013 or at www.daviddwarka.ca
