Counselling and crisis support
At Obsidian Support Services, we understand that the impact of childhood sexual abuse, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, trauma, and abandonment can shape every part of a young person’s life, how they see themselves, how they trust others, and how they navigate the world.
These experiences are not just moments in time. They are deeply rooted wounds that require compassionate, intentional, and trauma-informed care to begin the healing process.
Our counselling and crisis support services are built on a foundation of safety, trust, and respect. We provide immediate and ongoing support for youth in crisis, ensuring they have access to a space where they feel seen, heard, and protected, without judgment, pressure, or fear.
Trauma-Informed Counselling
We walk alongside each youth at their own pace, recognizing that healing is not linear.
Through trauma-informed counselling, we support individuals in:
- Processing their experiences
- Rebuilding self-worth and identity
- Developing healthy coping strategies
For survivors of sexual abuse, assault, and exploitation, our approach prioritizes empowerment, voice, and control, helping them reclaim their narrative in a way that feels safe and supported.
Crisis Support & Emotional Care
We provide immediate crisis intervention and emotional support for youth navigating urgent or overwhelming situations.
Our focus extends beyond crisis response to long-term healing, recognizing that trauma often intersects with feelings of abandonment, loss, and instability.
Relationship-Based Support
Our team is committed to building consistent, meaningful connections that foster trust and provide a sense of belonging, something many youth have been missing.
Support is tailored to each individual, ensuring care is responsive, personal, and grounded in understanding.
Our Services Include
- Immediate crisis intervention and emotional support
- Trauma-informed counselling and care
- Specialized support for survivors of sexual abuse, assault, and exploitation
- Emotional regulation and coping skill development

Our Commitment
At our core, we believe that no experience defines a young person’s future.
With the right support, care, and environment, healing is possible. Every youth deserves the opportunity to rediscover their strength, their voice, and their path forward.
