Why Choose Counselling Services at Ember & Elm?

Choosing counselling at Ember & Elm means accessing mental health care in a calm, supportive environment designed for healing and wellness — without blending services or clinical roles.

 

Clients choose therapy here because we offer:

  • Independent, confidential mental health care

  • A safe and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship

  • Evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches

  • A peaceful wellness setting that supports emotional regulation

  • The option to access other wellness services in the same location

  • Respect for autonomy, privacy, and professional boundaries

 

You receive focused therapeutic care, while having the convenience of a holistic wellness space if that aligns with your personal wellness goals.

 

Choosing the right therapist for you is paramount; at Ember and Elm, all of our clinicians offer complimentary consultations. This allows you the opportunity to have a no obligation conversation, so you can meet them - ask questions and sense whether their personality, approach, or presence feel right to you.

Becky Adam-Park, BSW, RSW
Soleil Therapy

With over 15 years of experience working in educational settings and clinical mental health environments, Becky has a specialized interest in supporting families, children, young adults and neurodivergent individuals, in addition to this - she also supports and works with individuals of all ages.

 

Becky engages using a compassionate and thoughtful style as she helps clients explore challenges related to stress, anxiety, low mood, relationships, life transitions, and emotional regulation.. Becky’s approach is integrative and relational as she blends talk therapy with nervous-system awareness and self-compassion practices, always respecting the client’s pace and goals.  Each treatment plan is collaboratively created to meet the unique needs of those whom she supports.

 

Becky is passionate about creating a safe and non-judgmental space to slow down, build insight and help clients to develop a skill set that supports growth and resiliency.  Many clients experience improved coping skills, self-awareness, confidence, communication and interpersonal effectiveness skills.  Taking the first step is brave and often the most difficult part – and it is also a meaningful step toward caring for yourself and your family.  

 

Each therapist practices independently while sharing a commitment to ethical, supportive, and client-centred care.

How Does Therapy Help?

Therapy provides a dedicated space to reflect, process, and grow. It can help you:

  • Understand your emotions, behaviours, and patterns

  • Manage anxiety, stress, and overwhelm

  • Navigate life transitions, grief, and loss

  • Improve communication and relationships

  • Develop emotional regulation and coping skills

  • Build self-compassion and resilience

  • Heal from past or ongoing challenges and/or trauma

 

Therapy is not about fixing you — it’s about supporting you in understanding yourself and strengthening your capacity to move forward.

Who Can Benefit from Therapy?

Psychotherapy is for individuals at all stages of life who want support, clarity, or change. You may benefit if you:

  • Feel stuck, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained

  • Are navigating stress, burnout, or big life changes

  • Experience anxiety, low mood, or emotional dysregulation

  • Want support in relationships or parenting

  • Are processing past experiences of trauma

  • Want to build healthier coping strategies

  • Are seeking personal growth and deeper self-awareness

 

You do not need to be in crisis to begin therapy.

What to Expect in a Session

Your first session focuses on understanding your needs, goals, and what feels most important to you. Therapy is collaborative, paced, and shaped by your comfort level.

 

Sessions may include:

  • Open conversation and reflection

  • Exploring emotional patterns and triggers

  • Learning practical tools and coping strategies

  • Mindfulness or grounding techniques (when appropriate)

  • Goal-setting and skill-building

 

You are always in control of what you share and therapy moves at a pace that feels right for you.
