Diverse

Honouring individual uniqueness and experience. We are committed to and advocate for inclusiveness and anti-oppressive therapeutic practices. 

We're Here to Support & Empower Your Growth

At As You Are Counselling (AYOUA), we believe the healing process involves becoming more deeply and comfortably yourself, not in becoming someone who you’re not. We support individuals who do not fit into a certain mold determined by culture, society, or expectations

Become More of Who You Are

Our Registered Clinical Counsellors offer a space of safety and curiosity, where clients are invited into courageous self-exploration. We honour each person’s lived experience and celebrate adaptive creativity — the ways you’ve learned to survive, connect, and express yourself.

Our logo — a daisy with butterflies emerging from its petals — captures this vision. The daisy, a symbol of purity and renewal, represents the core of who you are. The butterflies signify transformation: a return to self through the ongoing process of growth and becoming. Together, they reflect the simple yet profound picture of what it means to be who you are, as you are.
