Photo of Kaleigh Russell, Registered Social Worker, BA, MSW, RSW
I am a dedicated Registered Social Worker (RSW) with a Master of Social Work who practices clinical psychotherapy and supportive counselling. I have a passion for delivering therapeutic interventions that address the social, emotional, relational, behavioural, and psychological needs of individuals and couples in order to address presenting problems in a holistic way. I have experience working with adults, adolescents (13+) and couples. My areas of specialty include attachment & relational trauma, self worth/esteem, self sabotage, unhelpful thinking patterns, addiction & substance abuse, relationship issues, depression & anxiety
Clinically, I follow an eclectic framework informed and influenced strongly by Psychodynamic Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I use an attachment focused, strengths-based, client-centered, recovery-oriented, and trauma-informed approach to addressing unresolved presenting problems.
My commitment is to provide you with a safe, confidential, and supportive environment that emphasizes awareness, development, growth, and change. My approach is nonjudgmental, compassionate and direct. I work to align all parts of self in order to help you better understand yourself and guide you into making transformational changes to your own life.

I combine a variety of types of therapy in order to treat the the root of the problem, not just symptom management. I believe by getting to the root cause, it allows us the opportunity to heal. Using a variety of therapies allows me to treat the mental, physical and spiritual components to presenting problems and restore the mind-body-soul connection.
