Wishing this group a great season 🏒🧡

Saturday, three of our Cubs U13 House players went to Aruma Mental & Emotional Wellness Services in Perth to accept an incredibly gracious sponsorship on behalf of their team.

As we reflect on the things we have to be thankful for this weekend, our hockey family is forever grateful for businesses like Aruma who are committed to investing in the future of our young athletes and our communities.

Thank you, Aruma!

Looking for support for yourself?

There are so many reasons people come to therapy.

Maybe something feels heavy right now. Maybe you’re navigating change, relationships, stress, burnout, grief, anxiety, boundaries, or patterns you’re ready to understand a little differently.

Or maybe nothing is particularly wrong, you’d simply like a space to talk, reflect, and better understand yourself.

Whatever brings you here, you don’t need to have it all figured out before you begin.

We currently have several Aruma practitioners welcoming new adult clients in Perth, Carleton Place and virtually, each bringing their own experience, approach, and areas of focus.

Take a look through to meet them and see who might feel like a good fit for you.

You can begin here 🧡

Looking for support for your child, teen or family?

Sometimes you know something is going on. Sometimes you can’t quite put your finger on it.

Maybe you’ve noticed more worry, big emotions, changes in behaviour, struggles at school, challenges with friendships or identity, or simply that your child or teen doesn’t quite seem like themselves.

Sometimes they need a space of their own, witj someone outside of home to talk to, connect with, and feel supported by.

And sometimes, the whole family could use a little support navigating change, strengthening relationships, understanding one another better, or finding new ways to move through the hard stuff together.

We currently have several Aruma practitioners welcoming NEW children, youth and families, with options available in Perth, Carleton Place and virtually.

Take a look through to meet them and learn a little more about who they support.

Finding the right fit matters. We’re here to help you begin 🧡

So….what exactly is Ripple? I wanted to take a few minutes to share why we created it, what we hope it becomes, and why we believe proactive mental + emotional wellness offerings belong in our communities.

Can we ask you a favour?

USE. YOUR. BENEFITS.

Seriously.

If you have an extended health plan that covers counselling, psychotherapy, social work, or other mental health services - use it!

Your benefits aren’t a bonus. They’re part of your compensation. They’re one of the reasons many of us choose jobs with benefit packages in the first place.

And yet, every year, benefits go unused while people tell themselves:

I’m not struggling enough.
I’ll use it if things get worse.
I don’t really have anything big to talk about.
I don’t have time.

But here’s the thing:

You don’t need to be in crisis to use counselling, and if you don’t carve out the time for yourself, then who will?

Use it to understand yourself better. Work on your relationships. Learn some boundaries. Navigate parenting, work, stress or change. Talk about the thing you keep thinking about.

Or simply take an hour that’s entirely yours.

If your benefits reset at the end of the year, take a look at what you have left.

You earned those benefits. Please use them 🧡
