Counselling

Services: Child, youth, couples, family, and individual adult counselling are available from our counsellors for a wide range of reasons. We have developed a specialized approach in our work with victims/survivors of violence (broadly defined), as well as those who have harmed others. In addition, we are also able to address disordered eating and the impacts on the individual and family. Please see our biography section for a full description of counsellor specializations.

Relationship Counselling

We are a network of counsellors committed to meeting the diverse and individualized needs of people in a wide variety of relationships. We respect the courage required for this process, and fully protect the confidentiality of everybody involved.

Family Counselling

We invite all family members, including foster families and extended family members to participate in family counselling, with the belief that change can happen through interactions and connections that are handled with care in this setting.

Children & Youth Counselling

Research reveals that children and youth rely more heavily on their behaviour than anything else to communicate, create safety, and maintain a sense of dignity. The risk(s), of course, are that adults assess behaviour and that these assessments frequently produce a diagnosis. If the context from which youth are responding is not understood, their behaviour will very likely be misunderstood as well. This becomes particularly true in situations of violence and adversity, where maintaining safety and dignity requires the skill of caution and the careful assessment of all interactions. We work with children and youth from all backgrounds, and in the context of all living situations with the inclusion of the people/family members surrounding them.  Child & youth counselling is offered in a child-friendly environment, with trained play-therapists.

Substance Misuse Counselling

We work with individuals of all ages, and at any stage of their substance misuse in collaboration with other services as needed/requested. We understand substance misuse as a response to troubling life circumstances and we aim to connect with people on their terms in order to understand the individual and situational logic that has led to substances. Alternate location appointments available upon request.

Justice & Safety Program (JAS)

The JAS Program is funded by the Ministry of Children and Family Development, and all referrals are received from this funder.  The goal of the JAS program is to engage with non-adjudicated offending partners around the consequences of their behaviour to end their abusive behaviour toward their intimate partners and children.

Family Law Reports

We specialize in ‘Views of the Child’ reports for families where assistance is required to determine the ‘best interest of the child’, when family law is involved to settle disputes. We include 3 interviews with each child, and an interview with each parent in order to understand the context and history of the family. Please contact admin@rbpinterior.com for more information, or to make a referral.
