Our Approach

Primarily Grounded in the Adlerian Approach.

HRES counseling is grounded in the Adlerian Approach, developed by psychologist and psychotherapist Alfred Adler. The approach treats you as goal-oriented, supports clients who are striving for social connection, and want control over your destiny. In Trauma Counseling, an Adlerian therapist will compile family history and details about a client and learn their behavioural patterns. Therapists will work with clients to set new, satisfying, and achievable goals. The goals are in connection with any aspect of life- developing marital or parenting skills, taking control of addictions, or anything else. After establishing objectives, the therapist will assign tasks for the client, set contracts or even offer suggestions for achieving the goals.

Focused on Strengths

Adlerian therapy starts from the belief that you're capable of change, not defined by what's gone wrong.

Built on Connection

People are wired for connection. Your relationships, past and present, shape how we understand your goals.

Your History, Understood

We look at patterns from your past to make sense of where you are now, without dwelling there.

Goals That Fit Your Life

Whether it's better parenting, a stronger marriage, or freedom from substance use, your goals shape the plan.

Clear, Practical Steps

From understanding to action. Every plan comes with concrete steps you can actually follow.
