Online Therapy at The Woods Counselling Co.

I'll be forever grateful. When I started therapy I was really really anxious of being vulnerable and sharing about my trauma and relationship and feeling dumb. I'd never done therapy and had some bad experiences with social workers. But when I met Elysia she was a warm gentle spirit. She was open to helping and non-judgmental towards anything I said. Nothing was too uncomfortable to say, and she made me feel like I wasn't crazy. It's been months and I don't know where I'd be without her.

First time talking to a counsellor and I know for a fact I couldn’t have made a better choice. I feel like most people fear judgement, and I’m definitely one of them but from the first interaction, I’ve felt extremely comfortable opening up and feel understood but also align with every piece of advice and guidance I’ve been given. Thanks Elysia!

I have been seeing Elysia for a few months now as we work through my past trauma and abuse. I greatly appreciate her gentle nature, open mindedness, and non-judgmental approach.She has been helpful in working with me to identify my strengths and healthy coping strategies and continues to assist me in my recovery.Thank you Elysia! I'd highly recommend.

Very attentive and validating. Elysia is one of a kind at making you feel seen and heard!

I am so happy that I found Elysia. She takes such a technical approach to helping me - which makes the path forward seem a lot more inviting and less overwhelming. She's giving me the tools and she's patiently and kindly teaching me how to use them. Elysia is incredibly intelligent and her knowledge of people and how our brains work is so impressive. I don't feel like I'm just sitting there talking about my problems (there's definitely some of that too : DDD), Elysia is teaching me how and why I feel the way I do, and ways in which I can improve the way I think and feel about myself and situations I find myself in on a day to day basis. She has helped me through a season of grief, she is helping me mend my marriage that was hurt due to our collective grief, she is helping me understand who I am ( on a sciency/psychological level) - which has been integral in this process. I'm 36 and I am learning about important aspects of myself, that I never knew existed. You don't have to be hanging on by a thread to get help. You can get it before it gets unbearable. You can get help to learn about who you are and you can get help to be incredibly kind to yourself and everyone around you. Elysia has taught me all of that, and I honestly look forward to every session, because I can actually see how she is impacting my life in real time. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
