What we offer
At Aware & Aligned, different modalities and approaches are used to provide the most comprehensive and flexible care.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a therapeutic approach that helps individuals embrace their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or avoiding them. ACT focuses on increasing psychological flexibility by encouraging you to accept difficult emotions and experiences while committing to actions aligned with your core values. The goal is not to eliminate distress, but to help you live a meaningful life despite it. Through mindfulness and behavioral strategies, ACT teaches you how to focus on what truly matters and move toward those values, even in the face of challenges.
Brainspotting is a powerful therapy technique that helps you process trauma and emotional pain by focusing on specific points in your visual field. The idea is that where you look can help access and release stuck emotions or memories in the brain. By guiding you to focus on certain “brainspots,” the therapist helps you tune into and process deep-seated issues, allowing your body and mind to heal. Brainspotting is particularly effective for trauma, anxiety, and unresolved emotional experiences, and it helps you release tension, gain clarity, and feel more grounded.
If you’re familiar with psychotherapy and counselling, you might have heard the term “person-centered” or “client-centered”, but might be sure of what it actually means. A person-centered approach to therapy, often called “client-centered,” focuses on creating a warm and supportive environment where you feel safe to explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace. This approach is grounded in empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard, empowering you to heal, grow, and uncover your own solutions. At Aware and Aligned, we embrace this philosophy, aiming to help you build self-knowledge and confidence to create meaningful, lasting change
Parts work or Internal Family Systems is a therapy approach that helps you understand and work with different “parts” of yourself. These parts can represent different emotions, thoughts, or behaviors—like the part of you that feels anxious or the part that tries to protect you. IFS helps you connect with these parts, understand their needs, and heal any hurt or conflicted areas. By learning to listen to and care for all parts of yourself, IFS helps create more balance, self-compassion, and a stronger sense of who you are.
