Salix is the Latin name for willow—a symbol of resilience, belonging, and hope. Like human relationships, the willow bends in storms yet stands strong. At Salix Counselling Services, we help you find this balance—cultivating emotional security, healing attachment wounds, and deepening connections. Struggles with trust, rejection, or emotional distance often stem from early attachment experiences. Your past relationships shape how you connect, but healing is possible. We use an attachment-based approach to help clients break patterns and foster secure relationships.
Make yourself comfortable
Shelbe Williams is a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) and a Registered Counselling Therapist (RCT). She holds a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and has extensive experience working with adults, children, and youth on a variety of relational and emotional challenges.
At Salix Counselling Services, we use a person-centered, attachment-informed approach to help you reshape your relational blueprint. You are not broken—you're learning to build secure connections. Whether facing loneliness, self-doubt, or relationship struggles, we provide a safe, empathetic space to heal, grow, and rediscover emotional security.
