About
Everyone deserves a place to be themselves.
A treehouse represents the deepest desires of childhood: a place where we find comfort, safety, security and freedom.
At Treehouse Trauma Centre, we help children, teens and adults overcome the hardships—trauma, abuse, anxiety or stress—that keep them from living fully. Our person-centred, humanistic approach helps adults and children break out of unhealthy patterns that undermine their inner strength and equips them to move forward with security, certainty and joy.
We believe in
Living Fully
Our humanist approach helps children and adults become the best version of themselves. We’ll guide you as you discover the agency you already have within—to live life with purpose, joy and hope.
Getting Unstuck
Unhealthy family situations, childhood trauma or abuse, or mental health issues can leave you feeling stuck. We’ll help you emerge from a rut, untangle a conflict and take down the walls that block your progress by equipping you with the tools you need to assess and handle difficult situations—and get unstuck.
Openness & Acceptance
We have a deep affinity with those who’ve experienced trauma and abuse. That’s why we don’t judge; instead, we offer empathy, inclusivity, openness and acceptance. Everyone is welcome here.
The Healing Power of Play
We’re serious about children’s mental and emotional health. That’s why our practice is rooted in playfulness—which helps establish connections while having fun in a safe, stable environment. We let kids be kids, even as they process trauma or stress. But kids aren’t the only ones who benefit from play therapy; adults benefit, too!
Healthier Attachments
We’re committed to helping children and adults form healthy attachments that reduce friction, increase relationship satisfaction and bring lasting healing.
Land Acknowledgment
The staff of Treehouse Trauma Centre acknowledges that we offer our services on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Kwantlen Katzie and Semiahmoo and Matsqui First Nations.
We respect the land and honour this tradition of land acknowledgment that dates back centuries for Indigenous people. With this acknowledgment, we thank those Indigenous people who still live on and care for these lands.
