Juno was the Roman Goddess of the soul.
It was believed that we must all have a balance in our "Juno" and our "intellect/reasoning." We live in a world that places a strong emphasis on our intellect and reasoning, and less support to the development of our soul - or in today's brain science language: our emotional self. The goddess Juno supports the very emotional therapy work, which these young women and their loved ones undertake. |

 "You will notice the difference the minute you walk through the front door... from the young women's art adorning the walls, to the passion that everyone exudes about the work we do! We are here about you! You and your parents will feel the sense that this is all about you becoming the best you can be and making our world a better place because of you. Parents, you will be joined in your belief and passion about helping your daughter find answers to her dilemmas and you will find your own answers and support with us. We are in the business of helping girls and young women find their voices and use them to take on every challenge in their world. They will speak in exclamations!!!"
Lois Sapsford
Founder, Juno House |
 Juno House, located in Calgary, Alberta, is a private practice counselling service specializing in the unique problems and challenges that adolescent girls, young women and their families encounter in our increasingly difficult world that girls must maneuver through.
The world is more difficult than ever for girls, and if you don't believe it, just watch 10 minutes of music videos or spend some time on social networking sites. Girls are growing up with such sexualized images of who they should become, that losing their voice and self is common place.
The team of specialists at Juno House believe in each person's ability and the abilities of families to change lives. The world is not good enough; we must make it better.
We also believe that everyone who walks through our door can find their voices, and challenge beliefs and patterns that are causing their lives to crumble. It is our job to identify those patterns and to help find new meaning in old beliefs - to rewire the brain to develop new, healthy behaviors. |
