Self-Regulation and Resilience Programs
At Community Health & Counselling Services, we offer evidence-informed tools designed to support clients in developing emotional regulation, focus, and overall resilience. These programs are skill-building exercises, not treatments, and are designed to help clients enhance self-awareness, manage stress, and optimize their performance in daily life.
HeartMath
HeartMath is a guided practice that helps individuals regulate their emotions and physiological state through heart-focused breathing exercises. Clients learn to:
- Monitor and adjust their breathing patterns
- Increase self-awareness and mindfulness
- Improve emotional balance and calmness
- Build resilience and better cope with stress
Neuroptimal Brain Training
Neuroptimal Brain Training (Neurofeedback) is a non-invasive brain training program designed to help the brain operate more efficiently. Through real-time feedback, clients can:
- Enhance focus, learning, and mental clarity
- Improve emotional stability
- Strengthen nervous system adaptability
- Support personal growth and self-awareness
Both HeartMath and Neuroptimal Brain Training are offered as supportive programs to empower clients, enhance resilience, and improve overall well-being.
HeartMath and Brain Training
HeartMath and Neuroptimal Brain Training are offered only to clients who are assessed to benefit from these programs. They support emotional regulation, stress management, and overall well-being. These programs are wellness and training tools, not counselling or therapy, and are provided as a complementary part of counselling sessions when appropriate.
Insurance and Coverage
Health & Counselling is not covered by OHIP. We offer direct billing to most insurance companies. It is important to confirm with your insurance provider whether your specific services are covered. For refugees, counselling services can be provided upon receipt of a referral from a family doctor indicating the need for support.
