Are you feeling overwhelmed by the constant pressure to measure up? You may constantly battle racing thoughts, struggling to focus, and feeling restless about various aspects of your life. While striving for excellence and witnessing others' success, you're often left feeling anxious, inadequate, and behind. Even when you perform well and receive praise, you still doubt your achievements, feeling unworthy or as though there's more you should be doing. It is incredibly challenging for you to communicate your feelings and needs to others because you feel guilty asking for help and fear you may burden others.

When we’re alone, facing what causes us pain and discomfort can be confusing and overwhelming. I believe that therapy is the doorway to self-knowing and that the most profound healing occurs when exploration happens in the presence of a safe and supportive other. My goal as a therapist is to provide a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where together we can explore and work through the difficult feelings, thoughts, and experiences that are impacting your personal functioning, relationships, and healing.

My name is Bruce Avery, I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor and I'm the founder of Avery Therapy Centre. I work with a wide range of people who may seek increased perspective, self-understanding, and clarity in their everyday lives. I also work with people who may feel that anxiety, depression, or trauma (past/current) is hindering them from achieving a sense of fulfillment and purpose. Through my work, I hear stories of both extraordinary achievements as well as unbearable challenges. I've found the work of counselling to be incredibly fulfilling, and feel honoured when trusted with the opportunity to learn about someone’s life.

Do you want to feel less anxious and overwhelmed? Is your inner critic constantly running you down? We all have an inner critic, and when it gets too strong, it can cause us a tremendous amount of suffering. In therapy with me, you will learn how to reduce the power of this critic, and experience greater self esteem and more confidence in all areas of your life, including: work, family, relationship and friends. I help adults of all ages and stages of life to overcome anxiety and depression, work through trauma and grief, and improve their relationships.
