Are You Tired Of Reliving Trauma In Silence In Guelph, Ontario?

In Guelph, many people silently carry the weight of psychological trauma that doesn’t just live in the mind but takes hold of the body. The lasting effects of trauma, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), emotional dysregulation, and chronic anxiety, make everyday moments feel unsafe and disconnect you from your relationships. Through somatic experiencing, we understand how trauma remains in the nervous system, making it hard to feel settled, no matter how peaceful your surroundings may seem.

I have been working with a therapist at Well Beings for a few months now, and I look forward to our sessions; I'm not sure if that's odd to say! The therapist I work with, Brenda, is wonderful. Her approach is a match for the things I am working through and I appreciate her calm demeanour, non-judgmental approach, and her positive way of leading our sessions. She regularly checks in to make sure I feel like we are working toward my goals together, and I feel safe and secure in sharing with her. I really appreciate her and Well Beings Counselling for connecting us!

I know there are bigger problems in the world, but somehow—even in retirement—my life had become too busy. My calendar was overflowing with commitments that no longer aligned with what I truly wanted.

Working with Alex was a turning point. Through her thoughtful coaching, I was able to clarify my priorities, reconnect with what brings me joy, and gain the confidence to step away from some things.

Now, I’ve made space for the balanced life I actually want to live.

Alex is an absolute delight to work with. Her warm, grounding presence—and her gorgeous, restorative office—made every session feel like a retreat.

Don’t hesitate to reach out. She has a wealth of wisdom to share.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Susanne, for such a thoughtful and detailed review of your experience with Alexandra. It's wonderful to hear how therapy has helped you navigate this important transition in retirement. Moving from an overflowing calendar to a life that truly aligns with your values and brings you joy. We're delighted that Alex's warm, grounding presence and the environment of our Kelowna office made each session feel like a retreat. Thank you for sharing your journey and for encouraging others not to hesitate in reaching out. Life transitions at any stage deserve thoughtful support, and we're honoured that we could be part of helping you create the balanced, fulfilling life you wanted. Wishing you continued joy in this new chapter!

K o r r y is a lovely kind understanding therapist. She listened very carefully to everything I had to say. She validated my thoughts and opinions. It felt like a very safe and welcoming environment. However, what I was really hoping to take away from our discussion was some tools to give me something to work with or some recommendations to help me process this journey of loss and deep grief.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your thoughtful feedback about your experience with Korry. We're pleased to hear that you felt heard, validated, and safe in her care - these foundations are essential for effective therapy.

We have dabbled with numerous counsellors, and without hesitation Dina is our favourite. She met our needs as a couple. She quickly builds meaningful connection and approaches her work with respect, frequent check-in’s, joy and laughter. If we weren’t moving provinces, we would see Dina to maintain the strength she has instilled in us.

We're truly grateful that you found the meaningful connection and relationship support you were seeking after trying several counsellors.

My daughter met with Sara for the first time last week and she had the biggest smile on her face after meeting with her. My daughter keeps telling me how much she liked Sara. I can tell Sara made my daughter feel very comfortable from the moment she met her. I am thrilled to find someone my daughter can talk to and a bonus that she enjoys it and looks forward to her next meeting as well!

Excellent services offered here. I’ve been visiting Anissa for a while and she’s done a very good job with me so far. She’s very good at handling things and very pleasant and professional to deal with. Highly recommended. Robin from the admin team is excellent as well, and very quick to assist in anyway she can with bookings and/or requests.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your positive experience, Dave! We are proud to hear our team's efforts have been successful.

Everything moved very quickly, from the time of inquiry to the professional & detailed forms to answer preliminary questions. I was able to reach out, type some background info, and be in contact with a (for lack of a better word) receptionist/ phone consultant, within two days, and by the middle of the next week had my first appointment in-person. Not to mention my first appointment with Sarah was quite enjoyable. I felt safe, understood and not dismissed like I had in previous therapy experiences through different service providers. Thanks! I look forward to & hope for a continual experience as such.
Response from the owner:Hi Kate, thank you for this kind review! We are so thrilled to read you've had a positive experience. We aim to provide this level of care to all our clients.

Dina and her approach to therapy are wonderful! She is compassionate, intuitive, and collaborative. She brings a beautiful balance of head and heart. The insights I have gained from my work with Dina have made a positive impact on my life - on myself and my relationships. In addition to these deep, meaningful, serious insights - I also appreciate that Dina provides room for laughter! I can’t say enough positive things about Dina and my work with her. If I could give her an 11 out of 10 star rating - I would.
Response from the owner:Hi Jennifer! We are thrilled to hear that counselling has had such a positive impact on your life. Thank you for sharing your experience. We hope it inspires others to seek insight and make positive change.

I was visiting Vancouver for a friends wedding, and suddenly had a anxiety attack from all of the planning and shenanigans. I was the photographer and it was really stressful time.

Proven Approaches for Trauma Therapy We Trust in

Well-Being Counselling believes in scientifically proven approaches to support real healing from trauma. Our therapists utilize evidence-based methods, such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), somatic experiencing, and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), as these methods are supported by clinical research and trusted by mental health professionals worldwide. 

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for trauma is a structured approach that helps individuals identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours linked to traumatic experiences.

Well Beings Counselling trusts CBT because trauma-focused CBT (TF-CBT) effectively combines Cognitive restructuring and exposure therapy to reduce distressing symptoms. Our registered psychotherapists use mindfulness-based CBT to enhance emotional regulation skills, helping clients regain control over their reactions and feel safer in their daily lives.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a structured therapy that helps process traumatic memories using bilateral stimulation to reduce emotional intensity and shift negative beliefs.

Well Beings Counselling offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy services through the structured eight-phase EMDR protocol, guiding clients step-by-step using the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) Model. EMDR sessions focus on trauma memory processing with careful attention to negative and positive cognitions, allowing healing to unfold during the desensitization phase. The clients feel emotional relief as the weight of past events begins to lift in a safe and supported space.

Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE)

Prolonged Exposure Therapy treats trauma by helping individuals gradually face feared memories and real-world triggers in a controlled, therapeutic context to reduce emotional distress.

Well Beings Counselling trusts prolonged exposure therapy because structured exposure built on Emotional Processing Theory weakens trauma-linked fear responses effectively. Our registered psychotherapists guide clients in developing a fear hierarchy that ranks distressing stimuli from least to most distressing. Clients engage in imaginal exposure to process trauma memories and in vivo exposure to confront real-life triggers. The repeated trauma narrative reduces avoidance, strengthens emotional regulation, and promotes avoidance reduction.

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT)

Trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy (TF-CBT) is a structured approach that helps reduce trauma-related distress by combining gradual exposure with cognitive processing.

Our registered psychotherapists at Well Beings Counselling use TF-CBT to help clients rebuild safety, regain confidence, and make sense of what happened. The process of TF-CBT begins with psychoeducation and coping skills, followed by the development of a trauma narrative to reduce fear and avoidance. Parent-child interaction plays a key role in healing trauma, restoring connection, and strengthening emotional safety.

Narrative Therapy

Narrative Therapy treats trauma by helping individuals separate themselves from problem-saturated identities through storytelling that reclaims meaning, repositions the self, and reauthorizes lived experience.

We trust narrative therapy because it allows individuals to challenge dominant narratives rooted in pain and shame. We use externalization to shift the problem outside the person, opening space for thin and thick descriptions that uncover unique outcomes hidden beneath the surface of distress. Individuals are supported in reauthoring stories that restore agency, clarity, and emotional safety after trauma.

Somatic Experiencing (SE)

Somatic Experiencing is a trauma therapy approach that supports recovery by helping the body release trapped survival energy through awareness of physical sensations.

We trust Somatic Experiencing (SE) to ease the effects of trauma without forcing clients to relive distressing events. The Somatic Experiencing method (SE) employs techniques such as titration and pendulation to gently engage with the body’s fight, flight, or freeze responses. Clients feel more grounded and emotionally steady as the body finds relief through safe and gradual healing.

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) & Meditation

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a gentle, trauma-aware method that integrates meditation and body awareness practices to help individuals stay grounded in the present moment, reducing overwhelm caused by past experiences. Meditation is a core part of MBSR, which enhances focus, deepens self-awareness, and strengthens emotional balance.

Well Beings Counselling trusts mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and meditation as practical approaches to support and encourage healing and personal growth. Our registered clinical counsellors guide clients through practices such as mindful breathing, body scan meditation, and loving-kindness meditation. Clients build inner safety, improve their ability to manage stress, and reconnect with a lasting sense of calm and groundedness.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic therapy is an insight-oriented therapy that explores how unconscious processes and early childhood experiences shape emotional patterns and present-day behaviours.

Well Beings Counselling trusts in psychodynamic therapy to help clients gain insight into deep emotional pain and unresolved conflict. Our registered psychotherapists use Psychodynamic therapy to bring awareness to defence mechanisms, encourage free association, and explore hidden patterns through transference and countertransference. Sessions help uncover unconscious processes tied to trauma, especially those rooted in early attachment or childhood experiences.
