Therapy Rocks

Psychotherapy for life, love, and wellbeing...

Why Therapy?

If you are like most people, you may run into a problem that seems unsolvable in life, love, or relationships. It makes you miserable and takes the joy out of life. Imagine if you had a professional counsellor who knows how to help you resolve it. Imagine what it would feel like to overcome the pain that won't go away, to have the life that you desire and deserve, to be able to grow your strength from within, and to enjoy quality relationships with loved ones.

So, why the name Therapy Rocks? Click [MORE] to find out.

Return to the joy of life. Therapy Rocks!

Walking Together

The word THERAPY comes from the Greek word ’THERAPIA’ which means ’To walk together for a while.’ Many people can relate to the feeling of traveling alone on a dark road late at night, feeling lost and not quite sure how to get to their destination. What would it be like for you to have someone walking with you?

Our Approach

We use an Integrative Psychotherapy approach to your treatment. What does that mean? Well consider this…

In Psychotherapy there are many styles, approaches, and techniques.   Each type is better suited for certain issues and personalities.  If you consider them as tools, a hammer works best on a nail, a screwdriver works best to tighten screws, and a wrench works best on bolts.  It is possible to use a wrench to hammer in a nail, but it is not as effective.  The same is true for Psychotherapy.

We have found that like building a house, people can be pretty complex, and you get the best results having a full set of tools in your toolbox.

At Therapy Rocks, we use the full set of tools tailored for your needs.  This is called Integrative Psychotherapy. Additionally, we partner with you every step of the way and explain your options as we go along to collaborate on goals for counselling. Our sessions, based on your goals and desires, are an invitation for you to explore, experience, heal and transform.

The most common styles that we might use in your treatment plan are Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Redecision Psychotherapy which combines the theoretical framework of Transactional Analysis (TA) with the intervention techniques of Gestalt therapy. [MORE]

That said, having the best tools in the world would only yield marginal results without heart and a genuine caring for our clients. Our therapeutic relationship is the single most important ingredient to our clients’ success. This relationship forms the foundation of our practice at Therapy Rocks and provides an emotionally safe space for our clients to thrive.

  • Shyla assisted me with coming to a conclusion regarding my relationship issues that has spanned over years. She did not impose her own views or beliefs on me. Instead, she asked clear questions to get me to reflect and arrive at an important decision on my own. Shyla’s approach towards counselling is unique compared to other therapists as she strives to address the root issues that are plaguing your life, and not just treat the symptoms.   [MORE]

  • When I came to Shyla, I felt as if I had reached as far as I was able to help myself. I had a deeply buried sadness, which I didn't know how to release.

It's all about rediscovering hope, and Shyla gave that to me. [MORE]

Madam Cutie

Chief Chill Officer (CCO)

Starting life on the streets, I quickly learned how to read peoples' character, intentions and body language in order to survive. After studying humans in-depth for many years, I feel I am in a unique position to help bring insights to my favorite two legged mammals.

I am also probably the last word on living in the ‘now’ and the epitome of ’belly up’ trust and ‘stretched-out’ bliss. I possess that wonderful ability to chill out literally anywhere and at any time, in virtually any position I choose. I’m inspirational in demonstrating a sense of peace and contentment and I can teach you how to live in the moment.
