Therapists in N6A

If you are living with the impacts of trauma, relationship breakdown, or a crisis of identity, you’re not alone. I have over a decade of experience helping individuals and couples with interpersonal trauma, anxiety, depression, abuse recovery, discrimination, loss of meaning in life, and uncertainties of purpose or identity. My work is psychodynamic, somatically-focused, and supports the psychological growth of clients. I want to help you get to the roots of problems and develop greater self-awareness in the process. I believe that long-term wellness ultimately stems from developing insight into the various patterns of our lives.

Now welcoming new clients (offering in person, virtual, evening/ weekends, pay what you can & sliding scale options). We prioritize a compassionate, judgment free space. We offer a client-centred, trauma-focused & attachment-based approach to supporting mental and relational health. We believe that we all come to therapy with complex experiences that often connect and impact us, therefore, our approach will always honour your story and how the parts of it weave together. Britt has gained experience supporting individuals & families over the last 10 years working in the social services field. Britt also provides some supervision.

I specialize helping those struggling with anxiety, mood disorders, and substance use concerns using trauma-informed treatment. My foundation views all people as being made up of mind, body, and spirit. We all share common pains in life, such as caregiver failures and events that have occurred beyond our control. These experiences change us and can form belief systems that perpetuate a limited perspective on who we can become. People are basically good and no person is "bad", but life traumas shape us into the false self (ego) which we then identify with; finding your true self allows for more authenticity and freedom.

Often it is difficult to prioritize our needs and reach out for help when we are struggling. I can understand that taking the first step towards seeking support is not always easy. I can provide a safe non judgmental space to all my clients. I take my time in completing the intake process and listen to all your needs. I can offer 90 minute sessions as I understand that 1 hour is usually not enough to share all about your issues and build rapport with someone you are meeting for the first time. I hold my clients' hands through this process so they can trust me to help and support them.

Accepting new clients. I am a registered social worker that is passionate about helping women and couples grow and heal. I began my career working with and advocating for abused women. I then transitioned into healthcare where I worked in women’s health, adult and paediatric emergency departments. My journey with women and their families has provided me the honour of empathically walking with them during some of their darkest days. I am also excited to be working with couples as I believe that our personal relationships are often our greatest opportunities for growth and healing.

Greetings fellow earthlings! My name is Amanda. As fellow humans, we can work together to help you through this unpredictable life more easily. In response to our shared challenges of heartbreak, disappointment, pain and fear, I want to offer you the universal needs of feeling seen, heard, valued and supported. I focus on deeper work, to thoroughly understand the experiences and relationships that have led you to how you feel today. Together, we can look for unhelpful patterns in your life, and for creative changes to help ease the struggles you have been dealing with, and find more balance, peace and hope for your future.

We all go through rough spots in life where we can benefit from time to reflect. These times can also be an opportunity to understand ourselves better, and make sense of harmful patterns. Throughout life, we develop thought and behaviour patterns in our response to stress, in our relationships, and in our daily habits. With effective tools and strategies, we can make sense of them, and let them go. This opens us up to a more authentic and healthy life.

Have you ever felt like you needed to do “more” or be “more” in order to feel like you are “enough?” Overwhelmed by guilt if you have needs of your own? Or believe if you did acknowledge YOU in relationships it could end in abandonment, disappointment or being alone? You may have learned to relate to yourself in this way for as long as you can remember and does not mean you are “broken” in need of being “fixed”. When we remove judgment and begin to see our “true self” through the lens of curiosity we get to reconnect with who we have always wanted to be but was too afraid to try.

My background holds 40yr of extensive practice experience and continued learning. Expertise:all relationship concerns; recovery/healing from emotional hurts, losses, trauma. Such events, if in early years, can instill persistent insecurity, fears, loneliness and grief, causing troubled close relationships and inner-life: Restricting our core resilient nature where we keep strong potentials to be more open, creative, confident, realistic/effective persons. Mainly treat “self-regulation” problems: Social anxiety, shame/guilt, anger, depression; Overdependencies; Intimacy-sexuality, Communication; Identity-Personality issues;Selfcare.

I understand and acknowledge the feeling of overwhelm and discomfort that some may have towards therapy. This understanding enables me to be genuine and intentional within my work. I enter each relationship with new energy, focusing our time on your unique goals. I believe in the philosophy that we are innately pulled towards health; therefore, I believe in your capacity to move towards a healthier and happier version of yourself.

Welcome! I am currently accepting new clients for April 2024! I offer both individual therapy and couples therapy. I want to thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Here is a little bit about my beliefs and therapeutic approach. I believe that everyone has the potential for growth and an innate ability to make desired changes in their lives. Sometimes, that ability can become obscured or hindered by trauma, anxiety, or stress. I am here to help you rediscover that ability, move through your pain, and walk alongside you on your path of self-healing.

When life is difficult, we often don't know where to turn. Through discovery and compassion, comes hope and growth and that is the goal counselling aims to provide. I have been practicing counselling for 20 years and I provide individual counselling to those over the age of 16 who are looking for hope, support and growth. I am available to see clients in both London and Ingersoll and my role is to support clients in finding ways to improve the quality of their life and finally feel like they can move forward.

Do the words "highly sensitive" resonate with you? Do you feel misunderstood by others in your life? Feel that the world is too busy or too overwhelming for your system? As a highly sensitive soul myself- I get it! I support highly sensitive and neurodivergent young adults who struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, perfectionism, self-compassion and navigating the day to day as a highly sensitive person. Let’s work together to find your voice and walk towards authenticity. A life where you feel empowered in your sensitivity, worth and values. A life where there is intentional space for calm, peace and boundaries.

Mental wellness is a significant component of our overall health. My goal in therapy is to create a space which allows you to engage in thoughtful reflection on your experiences, fears and various parts of yourself. I recognize and value each person’s unique capacity to make meaningful and lasting changes in their life. I am dedicated to helping you achieve your goals and living a life that is happier and more satisfying.

All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming (Helen Keller). I am a psychoanalyst and offer treatment for anxiety, depression, stress, loss, grief, low self-esteem/confidence and shyness. I specialize in issues arising from adult and childhood trauma, relationships with family or colleagues, life transitions of any form and gender identity. I believe it is equally important to work on our inner and outer selves and to include our past and present in order to develop a grounded and balanced sense of being. I provide a safe environment in-person or virtually where you can explore and develop your thoughts further.

Now Accepting New Clients! You're a woman in your 20s or 30s with ADHD. You struggle with time blindness, impulsivity, difficulty focusing at work, procrastination, rejection sensitivity, and difficulty managing emotions. Maybe you overextend yourself, and a hard time setting boundaries, or have difficulty saying no. Even if you're not diagnosed, you're pretty sure you have it. You've tried tools to help - maybe medication, maybe meditation, maybe time blocking, journaling and self-help books but you still feel stuck. Often this shows up as problems in our closest relationships - be it with friends, partners, family, or at work
