We are a multi-faceted psychology practice working with children, teens and adults. Our mission is to promote growth within the individual, the couple and the family. Not only do we help people to find solutions to problems, we facilitate a growth experience directed to living a more meaningful life. We use a range of counselling modalities to help people reach their true potential including talk psychotherapy, play therapy, parent infant psychotherapy and equine assisted psychotherapy.Every person strives to have a meaningful life. To wake up each day with a sense of hope and purpose. A large part of this purpose comes from our relationships and the connections we make. Many people who seek psychological help feel hopeless and directionless.A great deal of our behaviour, thoughts and feelings are based on patterns that have developed from our past experiences. The brain is a mouldable organ that is able to physically change. What creates change in our brains is experience. The music we hear, the people we surround ourselves with, the extra activities we do, these all affect how our brains develop. When an experience is repeated over and over it deepens and strengthens our connections. Think of how a pathway is forged in a park, the more people that walk along that path, the deeper the path becomes and the easier it is to walk along it. This is what happens in the brain. The more we experience something, the more entrenched the path becomes, and the more often we resort to that path in our everyday life.Thus in order to create meaningful change we need to make changes in our minds, in our patterns and in our connections. And so the name Meaningful Minds was brought to life, with the goal to help people find meaning in their existence.
