Health Net Therapists in Parry Sound, ON

Do you feel consumed by your emotions? Are you experiencing low mood, feelings of anxiety, depression or hopelessness? Are you struggling in your relationships? Do you find yourself stuck in the same re-ocurring, negative cycles? You do not have to navigate through this alone.

As a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers, I am a firm believer that clinical practitioners can empower their clients to become experts in their own mental health. With a background in psychoeducation and anthropology, I work in collaboration with my clients to build and manifest workable skill sets while acquiring new and different perspectives about their struggles. As an IFS and TOOLS-based therapist (Stutz and Michels), I aim to inspire the unlimited spiritual/physical/intellectual potential inside each person, which is where true transformation can occur.

It's not just you, life HAS gotten harder in the last few years. If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.
