Canadian Family Health

Canadian Family Health Individual Couple & Family Counselling | Trent University Emotional Health Practitioner Programs | Founder of Neural Network Therapy®️

We believe that emotional health is the primary foundation for physical wellbeing. We provide individual, couple and family counselling services. Emotional Health Practitioners address anxiety and depression, ADHD in both children and adults, addictions of all varieties, and relationship concerns. Our approach is practical and based in neuroscience and the brain's ability to change itself.

We talk about what to expect at a Canadian Family Health session, where the focus is on learning and applying practical tools, rather than just talking. The sessions involve a lesson, homework, and a free 15-minute consultation to get the support and understanding you need.

Neural network therapy provides a clear path to navigate the process safely while feeling supported and heard. If you’re a survivor looking for support, I encourage you to check out our team and schedule a free 15-minute consultation - no obligation, just a first step in getting the help you need.

Your brain is always learning what to look for. 🧠

Because of positivity bias, the brain naturally scans for stress, problems, and what is going wrong, especially during difficult seasons.

But the brain is changeable.
With gentle, consistent practice, we can retrain it to also notice safety, progress, strengths, and moments of good, without ignoring hard things or pretending life is perfect.

What you repeatedly focus on becomes the pathway your brain travels most often.
This is how real, sustainable change happens.

Your mind has a diet too.
And just like your body, it’s affected by what you consume.

Endless negativity, doom-scrolling, complaining, and comparison can feed anxiety, irritability, and low mood.
Positive content, supportive voices, learning, humour, and inspiration help nourish calm, clarity, and resilience.

You don’t have to ignore reality, just be intentional about what you let live rent-free in your mind.

Curate your mental diet. Your mood will thank you.

Too busy to meditate? Microdosing mindfulness has big health benefits.⁠

A growing body of research from teams around the world suggests that even extraordinarily brief exercises, as little as 20 seconds a day, can leave people feeling a sense of peace and joy that lingers well beyond the moment itself.⁠

By breaking ruminative thought cycles and soothing the body’s stress response, these micropractices (also known as microacts) may also support long-term physical health.⁠
