YOUR SPACE: YOUTH THERAPY

VOTRE ESPACE : THÉRAPIE POUR LES JEUNES

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about how to handle everything happening in your life? You’re not alone. Many young people just like you are dealing with all kinds of pressures—school, friends, family, social media, and figuring out who you are. Sometimes, it can feel like too much to handle on your own, and that’s where we come in.

At Burgess Counselling and Family Therapy, we provide a safe and confidential space where you can talk about what’s going on and work through your feelings. We get that life can be hard, and we’re here to listen without judgment, helping you find ways to cope and feel better.

WHY COUNSELLING CAN HELP

Counselling isn’t just for people going through really tough stuff—it's for anyone who wants support to feel better and navigate life with more confidence.

It’s all about you: This is your space to share what you want, and we’ll focus on what’s important to you.
Confidentiality: What you share stays between us, unless you give permission for us to involve your parents. Your privacy matters, and you control how much your parents are involved.
Personal growth: Together, we’ll work on skills to help you manage stress, build better relationships, and understand your emotions.
Support for your mental health: We’ll guide you through anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and more, helping you understand and process your emotions in healthy ways.
