Therapists in M5R
Finding the right therapist can be an emotionally draining and taxing process. If you're looking for a different therapy experience that is highly collaborative and engaging, this is the right fit for you! I like to provide space, empathy, humour, and ask reflective questions that will get your brain working a little harder. Clients often say to me: "Wow, that is a good question! Let me think about this for a moment." I also practice from a person-in-environment approach. I analyze and take into consideration of systemic factors that may be impacting your overall well-being.

With 15 years of experience as the head counsellor at The Michener Institute, I offer professional support for anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and family challenges. My use of both Gestalt Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) gives me a wide range of options for support for both individual and couples. Gestalt focuses on the 'here and now,' our body experiences and childhood patterns and helps us be present in our relationships. CBT has been rigorously tested in over 1000 studies, and is a therapy that supports depression, attention deficit disorder (ADD), panic and anxiety, phobias and stress.

For anyone out there who feels like they are failing at “having it all,” I’m here to break it to you. You haven’t failed. Attaining perfection in our lives is a myth, and it’s holding so many of us back from the happiness we deserve. Especially in this modern day and age, we are flooded with highlight reels of what our lives should be. While most of us would admit that no one’s life can be picture perfect 24/7, many of us still stretch ourselves too thin to “do it all” to gain acceptance from society. The truth is this... It is almost impossible to have a picture perfect life without serious consequences to your wellbeing!

The gestalt therapeutic process is a creative journey where the therapist’s support and presence invite you to explore what is most meaningful in your life, including what feels painful or difficult. I hope to support you to more fully trust and listen to your inner knowing, and to find more space to experiment with new approaches to what might feel like old or stuck patterns in your relationships and your engagement with the world.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or overcome with grief? Maybe you are consumed by a chronic sense of dissatisfaction; or feeling distraught after a life-changing trauma. Whatever the trouble is, you do not need to face it alone. Therapy can be an effective way to rebuild your sense of well-being, improve your relationships, and increase your capacity to cope with all the unexpected things life brings. My practice is trauma-informed, relational and my approach is nonjudgemental, empathic and direct.

Hi, I’m Carmelle. I believe everyone can benefit from the support of a mental health professional, and I would feel honoured for the opportunity to witness your journey of growth. Authenticity and empathy have guided my work as a therapist and social worker since 2017, particularly through my experience working with diverse and marginalized communities. Having transitioned to this field from the world of journalism, I see individuals as more than merely problems that need fixing—I want to ensure that you are the author of your own story. My priority is to create an environment where you feel comfortable and safe during our sessions.

Having the right therapist to talk to and collaborate with on your goals, challenges, and emotional turmoil can help put things into perspective and create a plan for success. It can be challenging to navigate the world in the face of oppression, disability, stigma, and other barriers to success. My therapy draws on inner strengths and authenticity to manage complex thoughts and emotions and increase feelings of empowerment. I emphasize meaning-making, the importance of self-efficacy in the healing process from cognitive, somatic, and social-constructivist perspectives.

My first priority is always to help my clients feel comfortable opening up and talking about what needs to be talked about. I view all of the "work" that occurs in therapy as secondary or subsequent to the building of that relationship. I tell my clients that they may not always feel completely comfortable in sessions because it is sometimes necessary to push ourselves outside of our comfort zones and talk about things that are painful or difficult to talk about. However, you can always trust me to be warm, empathetic, and compassionate.
