My name is Katherine N. Prosper and welcome to my page. Amara has many meanings in a few different languages but it means 'Grace' in the Igbo language. Grace in therapy often involves patience, open communication, and a willingness to explore personal growth. It's about allowing yourself the space to heal and learn without judgment. There are many layers to you and how you move about this world.

WELCOME! Are you feeling frustrated, stuck, overwhelmed or unmotivated in this season of life? "Liminal Space" means the in-between or transitional moments or place between our current reality and our desired future. The reality is that this space may not always be enjoyable or pleasant, it can often feel uncomfortable, unfamiliar and uncertain. Let's talk about it! In addition to my professional role, I am also a wife and a mother, and I bring a wide range of experiences working with children, youth, parents/caregivers and adults. 提供中英文服務.

Are you ready to make a change in your life? Taking the first step toward your wellness can feel overwhelming. Welcome. I help people who are feeling the effects of stress and trauma (from childhood or more recent events) and are interested in processing these experiences in a warm, supportive space. Memories can sometimes get stuck in our bodies and may result in mental, physical, and emotional stress. Together, we can work on identifying and processing these stressors, developing healthy ways of expressing and releasing emotions, and practice skills for lifelong change.

Family Therapy Counsellors
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
