🌟 Introducing HALO 🌟

We’re thrilled to welcome Dr. Amal Boukhdhir to Hills and Valleys Counselling Services as we unveil our newest innovation — the HALO Program.

HALO represents the unique energetic field that surrounds every person — your body’s own luminous “halo.” Using Bio-Well imaging, this program offers a first-of-its-kind way to see your stress, vitality, and emotional balance in real time.

✨ Visualize how your mind and body interact.

✨ Understand where your energy is thriving — and where it’s depleted.

✨ Learn how to restore balance through personalized, evidence-based strategies.

Dr. Amal combines advanced clinical expertise with a holistic lens, bridging science and energy awareness to support whole-person healing.

If you’ve ever wondered what your energy says about your wellbeing, this is your invitation to find out.

📍 Now available at Hills and Valleys Counselling Services

Not all relationships are meant to last forever ⏳
Some people come into our lives to help us grow, learn, or heal—then the connection evolves or ends. And that’s okay.

Letting go doesn’t mean it wasn’t meaningful. It means you’re honoring what was, while making space for what’s next 🌿💛
Grief and gratitude can exist together.
******
Toutes les relations ne sont pas faites pour durer ⏳
Certaines personnes traversent notre vie pour nous aider à grandir, apprendre ou guérir – puis le lien change ou se termine. Et c’est correct.

Laisser aller ne veut pas dire que ça n’a pas compté. C’est honorer ce qui a été, tout en laissant de l’espace pour ce qui vient 🌿💛
Le deuil et la gratitude peuvent coexister.

Boundaries aren’t barriers—they’re bridges to deeper connection 🛤️
They let both people feel respected, safe, and emotionally free. Saying no, asking for space, or expressing your needs doesn't make you cold or distant. It makes you honest—and that’s what strengthens trust 🧡

When we set boundaries with care, we show up more fully and lovingly.

*********
Les limites ne sont pas des murs, ce sont des passerelles vers une relation plus forte 🛤️
Elles permettent à chacun de se sentir respecté·e, en sécurité et libre émotionnellement. Dire non, demander de l’espace ou exprimer ses besoins ne veut pas dire qu’on rejette l’autre. Cela montre qu’on est honnête – et c’est ce qui construit la confiance 🧡

Fixer des limites, c’est aussi prendre soin de la relation.

In a healthy relationship, you don’t have to fight to be heard or hide parts of yourself.
Being seen, understood, and supported 🤝—that’s what creates safety and connection.

It’s not just about love. It’s about emotional presence, trust, and care that makes both people feel valued and accepted 💙
*****
Dans une relation saine, tu n’as pas à te battre pour être entendu·e ni à cacher qui tu es.
Se sentir vu·e, compris·e et soutenu·e 🤝 — c’est ce qui crée un véritable sentiment de sécurité et de connexion.

Ce n’est pas juste une question d’amour. C’est une question de présence, de confiance et d’attention qui fait que chacun se sent valorisé et accepté 💙
