Spring has a way of showing us what’s possible 🌷
A few days ago, these tulips were upright, vibrant, reaching toward the light. Today, some have softened, bending and folding inward. Not dying — just moving through their natural cycle.
In session with clients, we’re reminded that growth isn’t linear.
Sometimes we bloom.
Sometimes we droop.
Sometimes we need tending.
Spring teaches us three gentle truths about rebirth:
1️⃣ Growth requires seasons. Dormancy isn’t failure — it’s restoration.
2️⃣ Softening is not weakness. When we allow ourselves to bend, we make space for healing.
3️⃣ With care, we rise again. The right environment — safety, reflection, connection — helps us reorient toward the light.
In the therapy room, we honour every phase. The blooming. The wilting. The becoming.
This season, instead of asking “Why am I not thriving?”
Try asking, “What season am I in — and what do I need to grow?”
Here’s to rebirth, renewal, and trusting your own timing. 🌿💜

We can’t pass up a great opportunity to share a bit about our team!

Steph has been with HC&T for almost 2 years now, working with children, teen and adults! As a therapist with ADHD she is unique in offering a special insight to you and what you may need in your therapy journey (and we promise her lounge sets always help you feel comfy and safe)

Lindsey started out as a student in 2022 and quickly won over our hearts! She is warm, welcoming and loves using Parts Work (or IFS) and Polyvagal approaches with her clients! Always showing up accessorized and with a cozy drink, she’s bound to win your heart too

Corrie is our resident entrepreneur, keeping busy writing children’s mental health books but always prioritizing her clients! Using EMDR, couples therapy and play therapy interventions she is a force to be reckoned with that always has a smile on her face but usually skipping the shoes and opting for socks only instead

Myck joined the team 4 years ago with a passion to help make positive change! Currently pouring her energy into finishing a play therapy certification, she truly cares about the “why” behind her work and her clients. She’s radically honest - sometimes served with a side of sass - but always authentically herself and kind.

Kathleen is the Health Counselling and Therapy team founder and the reason we’re all here together! Despite being the team captain and busy helping everyone stay on track, Kathleen still makes time for clients of her own, dedicating herself to helping them heal, grow and feel better

Happy Black History Month! Books are such a great way to connect and learn with the little people in our lives, open their minds to new questions and ideas. And like Myckayla mentioned, this information is available all year round!

When we feel anxious, the mind often becomes absorbed in thoughts about what might go wrong. These thoughts keep the brain’s alarm system active, even in the absence of immediate danger.

Sensory check-ins work by intentionally directing attention to what the body is experiencing right now. Noticing sights, sounds, physical sensations, smells, and tastes engages attention systems in the brain that are responsible for awareness and regulation.

As attention shifts toward concrete sensory information, there is less mental space available for anxious thought loops. This helps the nervous system update its sense of safety in the present moment, which can gradually reduce physiological arousal and support a return to calm.

Are you interested in being a research participant and receiving compensation?

A Western University research team is looking for couples where at least one member is experiencing depressive symptoms, the couple has been together for at least 6 months and currently live together, and neither partner is pregnant nor has given birth in the last 12-months. This study is open to couples of any gender or sexual orientation.

Your participation will be entirely online, involving a baseline survey + 14 short daily surveys + 3- and 6-month follow-ups.

Rest is a core part of nervous system regulation!

When we slow down, we give the nervous system a chance to shift out of survival mode and back into a state of safety. This is where repair, digestion, emotional processing, and clarity happen.

Rest doesn’t have to be perfect or productive. It can look like lying down, reducing stimulation, breathing slowly, or simply pausing without input.

If rest feels uncomfortable or brings up guilt, that’s often a sign your nervous system has been under prolonged stress — not that you’re doing anything wrong.

Gentle, consistent rest helps teach the body that it is safe to slow down.
