Recovery from Abuse & Toxic Relationships

Trying to heal after being hurt by someone you trusted? You don’t have to have it all figured out. Healing is possible, and together we can help you feel safe and steady again.

At Rise & Shine Counselling, our goal is to help every person feel...

CONFIDENT & EMPOWERED

UNDERSTOOD & RESPECTED

SAFE & GROUNDED

"You don't have to pretend everything is okay."

Experiencing abuse can deeply affect every part of life. You may feel fear, shame, self-blame, or numbness. Memories might resurface unexpectedly, or you may feel disconnected from your body and emotions. It can be hard to trust others, or even yourself, after betrayal and harm. Healing from abuse takes time, patience, and a sense of safety.

​

Our therapists offer trauma-informed, compassionate support that moves at your pace. Together, we create a safe space to process your experiences, rebuild a sense of security, and reconnect with your body and emotions. Through grounding tools, somatic awareness, and narrative work, we help you regain control of your story and rediscover your strength and worth.

​

At Rise & Shine Counselling & Wellness, we're here to walk beside you on your mental health journey.

ABOUT US

Why Work With
Rise & Shine Counselling & Wellness

"Where healing turns into growth, and growth turns into joy."

So often, we know deep down what we need to feel fulfilled, but something gets in the way. We fall into patterns that no longer serve us, in our relationships, our work, or how we care for ourselves. Over time, those habits quietly shape our days, and our days become our lives.

​

At Rise & Shine Counselling & Wellness, we believe that change is always possible. With the right support, you can break free from old cycles, reconnect with what truly matters, and start living in alignment with your values and goals.

​

We’re inspired by the idea that growth isn’t about becoming someone new. Rather, it’s about uncovering who you’ve been all along. Together, we’ll help you rediscover your confidence, resilience, and sense of purpose so you can rise into a life that feels grounded, intentional, and full of possibility.
