Our therapist, Catherine is thrilled to be at a 3-day training in Toronto and learning from the very esteemed Emotionally Focused Therapy trainer and author, Leanne Campbell. This is a profound time for Catherine, as she has looked up to Leanne for years and has led her on the path of finding a therapy modality that feels like home.
On a personal level, Nala her dog is waiting at the livingroom window and is going to be super excited to see her face tonight when she gets back!! 💕🐕

🧡 During the National Week for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour Survivors of residential schools, their families, and the children who never made it home.
At Turning Point Counselling we recognize that mental health and wellness cannot be separated from truth, justice, and equity. Standing against oppression means listening to Indigenous voices, acknowledging the ongoing impacts of colonialism, and committing to action in solidarity with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities.
Reconciliation is not a single week—it is lifelong work. We invite you to read the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action and support Indigenous-led organizations and initiatives in our community. www.turningpt.ca

Today, the owner and operators of Turning Point Counselling, Geoff and Catherine enthusiastically hosted our annual appreciation brunch for their amazing team of therapists!
Catherine’s office was transformed to an elegant dining room and a delicious spread was enjoyed by all.
Special thanks to the Sober Sips in downtown Barrie for their non alcoholic Sangria and mimosas! What a treat!

Turning Point Counselling would like to thank all of their therapists and client care coordinator for providing excellent care and for their unwavering commitment to mental healthcare. We’d also like to this opportunity to thank our clients for choosing Turning Point Counselling for support. You matter to us. It is truly an honour that you gift us with the ability to walk with you through difficult times. Thank YOU! 💕

September is Su***de Prevention Month -
Su***de is not a weakness, and talking about it should never carry shame. By breaking the stigma and changing the narrative, we can create safer spaces for open conversation, compassion, and hope.
Together, we can remind each other: reaching out for help is a sign of strength, and no one has to face their struggles alone.

The way we connect as adults often traces back to how we felt in our earliest relationships. Our attachment style is a reflection of what we learned about love and safety.
Healing starts with awareness. You can learn more from reading “The Secure Attachment” by Julie Menanno.

Today, we honour the rich cultures, traditions, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples.

As social workers, we are committed to listening, learning, and walking alongside Indigenous communities in the ongoing work of truth, reconciliation, and justice.

Let’s take time today—and every day—to celebrate Indigenous voices, support Indigenous-led initiatives, and reflect on the responsibilities we each carry.
