Eclectic Therapists in L1H

Hello. I am an experienced Social Worker/psychotherapist with over 25 years in the field. I combine a unique skill set that combines creativity with therapeutic experience. I like to run relaxed sessions with you at the center of the issues. Together we will decide the direction and approach. I believe humor and metaphorical storytelling are the direction to go in.

I work with people from a strength based perspective. I believe every person knows what is right for them. My role is to support them in accessing their skills and talents so they can live their very best life. I work with people on a variety of issues using a trauma informed, anti-oppressive approach. I tailor my approach to the person I am working with. I believe strongly in working from a straightforward, and accessible approach that my clients can take away with them to the rest of their lives. We all face challenging life issues that can be faced with compassion and strength in order to live a values based life.

Now offering in-person and virtual sessions. Are you struggling to cope with negative life events or a traumatic experience? Are your emotions impacting your day-to-day coping and relationships? Do you have flashbacks? Feel like you’re on edge all the time or maybe checking out? Looking for support to be more present? Blaming yourself; “Things are okay now; I should just be able to move on" or "Its my fault." My goal is to support individuals, who have experienced trauma, negative life events and challenges begin to move towards healing. The core values of my practice are acceptance, compassion and connection.

Hi, I’m Laura. I am a gentle soul, a nature and music lover, and a person who loves creativity and connection. I was diagnosed with ADHD later in life. I’m intimately aware of its impact on relationships, work, self-esteem, and overall ability to function. I understand feeling overwhelmed and anxious with a busy and overactive mind. I get how a lifetime of messaging suggesting you’re not ‘normal’ can creep into your mind and become your own shameful inner dialogue. I've done my own work to embrace my ADHD diagnosis. I certainly don’t have all the answers, but I have learned many tools to not only function but thrive.

I offer couples a new way to understand and relate to each other. We build connection and intimacy through developing new skills for attention, conversation, and emotional awareness. Couples counselling lets me use all of my skills in one place, it’s an important and special experience where I get to help bring people together - or support them in their vision to move apart, if that’s what they need. I am also passionate about helping with stress in the workplace and relationships, anxiety and depression, and/or ADHD. I’ve seen great success supporting “adult children” who are working to heal parental relationships.

We all have challenges as we develop and grow. When we get stuck and need understanding, support and options, counselling can really help.

I work with women who are looking for support with anxiety, stress, feelings of being overwhelmed, grief and/or chronic illness/chronic pain. I strive to provide compassionate, trauma informed, anti-oppressive care and am committed to providing a space free from judgement so you feel safe and supported as you navigate life's challenging circumstances and discover all parts of who you are. Your healing is my goal and I look forward to supporting you on your journey!

We provide individual psychotherapy, couple therapy, family therapy, sex therapy, psychological and vocational assessment and psycho-educational assessment and intervention. We can help you and your family cope with and overcome life challenges, relationship conflicts, traumas, and mental health concerns. Our services are provided by registered psychologists, registered psychotherapists and experienced masters/doctoral clinicians under supervision.

The Relationship Agency is a group of expert therapists who help people to navigate relationships, life transitions, anxiety, ADHD and life's big questions. We believe relationships are everything, and help people improve their lives by mastering relationships - in love and at work. We value showing up as our authentic selves and acting with curiosity and courage. It's important to us to serve people just like us - moms, students, people with ADHD, working professionals, people navigating different cultures, and relationships new and old.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and constantly struggling in life? Noticed patterns that are difficult or stressful to overcome? Focusing on anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, trauma, co-dependency and mental health disorders, I provide a safe & non-judgmental space where trust and relationship building takes place. Encouraging emotional exploration and expression, I am here to listen with compassion.

My mission is to support and empower clients on their journey towards growth and healing. I am committed to promoting a safe, open, and non-judgmental space to deconstruct what you are feeling, what you have experienced, and your current situation. I strive to build a trusting therapeutic relationship with my clients through empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. I recognize that there is no “one size fits all” approach to therapy, and as such, I aim to tailor sessions based on your unique individual experiences and needs.

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist and Canadian Certified Counsellor and have over 10 years of experience as a counsellor and psychotherapist. I work with adults (18+) who are experiencing stress, anxiety, burnout, and/or experiencing significant life transitions (eg. school to work, work to retirement, new parents, empty nesters, relocation, etc.). Transitions in life can be some of the most challenging times, when our direction, support systems, and needs evolve. While I work with all adults, I do have particular experience supporting post-secondary students, having worked with university students for ten years.

Currently, we provide online counseling services exclusively, featuring a talented team of counselors from diverse backgrounds who can tackle a wide range of mental health issues. Our primary goal is to nurture the holistic well-being of our clients, addressing their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects through exceptional counseling services. We cater to individuals, couples, and families, tailoring our approach for each unique client. In the event of client dissatisfaction with a therapist, we pledge to either find an appropriate replacement or suggest an unaffiliated alternative expert to ensure their needs are met.

As the owner of NuChoice Counselling and Assessment Services Inc, I provide a wide range of innovative person-centred counselling and assessment services that enhance and transform the lives of individuals and families. I provide individual, relationship, and family counselling for individuals who struggle in a variety of areas including depression, anxiety, conflict resolution, parent-teen conflict, and so on. In addition, I conduct parenting capacity assessments, custody and access assessments, and need assessments. All of my services can be provided at my office, in the community, or via online video.

Are you an ambitious Executive, dedicated Manager, or influential Leader feeling the weight of responsibility bearing down on your shoulders? Do you find yourself navigating the complexities of leadership while silently grappling with the burden of unresolved trauma or emotional fatigue? If so, you've arrived at the right place. I'm here to extend my hand and guide you through a profound transformational experience tailored specifically to leaders like you.

Life and relationships can be challenging. Whether it is your relationship with your spouse, partner, friend, teenager, or child it takes work to make a strong, lasting and healthy relationships work. Finding hope in what seems to be a hopeless situation sometimes requires support, encouragement and assistance to envision a future with promise and possibilities.

Are you living with constant worries, a lack of concentration, or panic attacks? Are you avoiding people or activities you used to enjoy, creating changes in your relationships? Or perhaps you're really hard on yourself and aiming for perfection you feel unable to achieve. Living with any of these things would be exhausting. Are you looking for some relief?

I service clients with a range of presenting issues. Goals are determined mutually with clients and sessions are guided to ensure client needs are being met. It is important to me that you feel heard, validated and understood while working towards your desired treatment outcomes. I provide a safe non judgmental environment and believe in the intrinsic value and self worth of every individual regardless of race, ethnicity, gender or age and work from a client strengths-based perspective.

At some point in our lives we all struggle with something that feels super heavy and is weighing us down. Is there hurt, anger, grief, regret or relational discord that you haven’t yet made eye contact with or spoken aloud about? It’s my passion and privilege to help you find your way. You don’t need to do it alone. To explore or unpack life's pain and challenges is a courageous step that can lead to meaningful outcomes of growth, healing and a greater sense of wellness. Since each one of us is unique, I intentionally engage in a collaborative approach which respects your individual strengths, experiences and needs.
