720 Spadina Avenue (south of Bloor, accessible) Toronto, ON M5S
A warm welcome to you. (I currently only have week day 9am-5pm availability). My integrative and holistic approach is informed by my personal mindfulness meditation practice (vipassana/ insight tradition) and includes a deep appreciation for the power of the body-heart-mind connection. I use evidence-based trauma-informed mindfulness interventions, behavioural therapies, IFS parts work, and a somatic (body-centred) therapy called Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I also have training in grief counselling (including non-death loss).
My Masters degree was from the University of Toronto (Psychotherapy/ Psycho-Spiritual Studies Program) and I did my clinical training at CAMH (Centre for Addiction and Mental Health). I'm a parent and have experience supporting health care workers. I provide an inclusive, compassionate, and safe environment for you to feel heard, seen, and understood.
Clients have said that I’m a caring, open, patient, and non-judgmental therapist. I work with people from all backgrounds, orientations, beliefs, and identities. My fee below is for 50-minutes (but I also offer 60, 75, and 90-minute sessions). I offer a free 30-minute initial consultation and look forward to meeting you.
Call or Andrea Blackler (Mindfulness, Somatic, IFS Parts) now for a free 15 minute consultation - (289) 210-9904
