How We Help

Cedar Centre’s Adult Program begins with our Virtual Skills Training in Affect & Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR) Program.

STAIR is an 11-week, self-directed, online learning program which offers practical skills to help improve emotion regulation and build stronger relationships. Each week participants review new content, complete at home practices, and attend virtual meetings with a Cedar Centre coach.

Each week participants receive written and video-based content and skills to practice and attend weekly virtual meetings with a Cedar Centre coach to review and integrate material.

STAIR is a foundational component to our Adult Program in that it must be completed successfully for participants to move on to the next phase of our services.

STAIR runs three times a year: Fall, Winter & Spring

All of Cedar Centre programs are self-referral, and begin with a phone intake and assessment.

Once STAIR is complete, participants take part in a Post STAIR interview to determine what the best next step is for them. Most participants are placed on the waitlist for individual therapy. While on the waitlist, participants are offered a variety of optional, trauma-informed programming.

Trauma-specific Individual therapy is offered virtually or in-person for up to 48 weeks. Therapy is client-centered, flexible, and supports individuals to understand, process, and heal from their experiences.

Individual therapy can involve approaches including, but not limited to, Somatic Experiencing, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems, Emotion Focused Therapy, Trauma-focused CBT, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
