Let me be your guide to the life you hope to for. Psychology and psychotherapy have captivated me for years, driving my dedication to the mental health field since 2011. Whether through in-person sessions or online, I tailor to meet the specific needs of each person I work with. I specialize in Couples Therapy and am certified in Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy. I also support individuals facing various difficulties, including phobias, social anxiety, panic attacks, health-related anxieties, major and persistent depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, OCD, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, anger, weight loss, suicidal ideation, and spirituality.

Mood regulation, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, grief, life transitions are all things that weigh on us. As a private clinician, I make it my goal to help my clients find their inner strength to overcome those challenges that life throws at them and offer them hope in living their life the way they see fit. Adopting approaches such as CBT, DBT, ACT, IFS and the Gottman Method I hope to assist clients in breaking down barriers and delve into the challenges that are preventing them from moving forward.

If the effects of depression, anxiety, trauma, stress or relationship difficulties have become overwhelming, therapy can help. I am a seasoned therapist with over 14 years experience working with individuals, families and couples. My primary focus is providing you with a safe, confidential and validating space to explore and make sense of what is getting in the way of your wellness, as well as providing concrete tools and strategies that will help you to increase your resilience and move forward in the direction you choose. We will work together to determine which therapeutic interventions are the best fit for you.

I am a fully certified Emotionally Focused Therapist (EFT) with the International Center for Excellence in EFT. I try to balance professional evidence-based practice with a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. I can schedule appointments on evenings and weekends and my office is discretely located. I also offer virtual appointments. Looking forward to meeting you!

With over 25 years of experience, I offer compassionate listening, a calm presence and a place of trust, promoting positive personal growth for clients who are seeking help to address emotional, behavioural and relational difficulties. I have a special interest in helping people who have experienced grief, trauma and loss, including loss by suicide as well as people who have experienced childhood sexual abuse. I support clients in overcoming fear and shame by helping clients identify their strengths and needs. I enjoy working with couples focusing on communication, active listening, anger management and family of origin work.

Life can be challenging! Whatever your circumstances are right now, there is hope for a brighter future! I believe that a changed heart and mind can bring new possibilities! There is a counselling process that is right for you! I have many years experience helping people improve their circumstances in their lives. I am confident that together we can transform your situation into something better than what it is right now. I have a heartfelt, empathetic, nonjudgmental approach to helping my clients feel at ease!

Do you feel you may not be living as the best version of yourself? Do you feel haunted by your past? Struggling to move forward? As humans, we have an innate need to feel seen, heard, validated, and safe. I chose a career that allows me to meet these needs for people like you. Seeking therapy is a step towards self-awareness and healing. The differences between our rational and emotional brain can make us feel disconnected and recognizing our internal dualities can be helpful. Reconnecting with our inner child, processing our grief, and holding space for our emotions can be liberating and empowering, as well as immensely healing.

As humans, we are presented with barriers in both our personal and interpersonal lives; similar to you and the circumstances that have brought you here, sometimes, we require the assistance of another. Seeking support demonstrates the courage and strength it takes to explore and confront your challenges. My first priority is providing a safe, comfortable, non-judgemental, and empathetic environment built on trust. True genuineness, respect, and a sense of compassion are grounded in my therapeutic style. I am an eclectic therapist who employs an integrative approach allowing for a variety of modalities to be utilized based on need, comfort, and what works for you.

Accepting New Clients! Whether you're new to therapy or coming back I welcome you. I specialize in assisting adolescents, adults, and families as they navigate various challenges, including ADHD, trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem, caregiving, grief, and palliative care. Fluent in English and French, I incorporate a multicultural lens into my practice. Furthermore, as a certified yoga instructor, I seamlessly integrate holistic methodologies into therapy. Drawing from my firsthand experiences with ADHD and anxiety, I provide a distinctive understanding and heightened level of support to my clients.

As my client/s you are an individual, couple, or family who want(s) to work collaboratively towards broadly defined health and wellness goals (such as emotional and interpersonal wellness) aimed at supporting a sustained improved quality of life in all aspects. Your goals may be short-term, crisis-generated (with an eye toward resolution), or aimed at sustained long-term improvements in relationships, self-regard, life management, cessation of self-destructive behaviours or self-destructive self-talk. My ideal client is simply someone who wants to improve the quality of their life in a way that is meaningful to them.

Now Accepting New Clients! When you feel overwhelmed, stressed or unable to handle your everyday life, do you find yourself wanting to escape? As a Certified Trauma Integration Clinician from the ATTCH Academy, I specialize in supporting individuals confronting difficulties including trauma, attachment wounds, addiction, complex grief and loss, eating disorders, body image, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, and personality disorders. My therapeutic approach is holistic, integrative, and informed by neuroscience while being grounded in anti-oppressive and harm-reduction frameworks for healing.

Life's constant stress, uncertainties, and emotional tides can be quite a challenge to navigate. Our specialization lies in supporting adolescents, teens and adults dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, low self-esteem, and trauma. Together, we'll embark on a journey exploring creative methods to better understand and express your true self, develop stronger coping mechanisms, discover tools for emotional balance, and cultivate lasting resilience. We integrate techniques from CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness into our work.

Hello, my name is Kelly-Lee, I believe that every person is entitled to live a life that is healthy, wealthy and wise. For almost 20 years, I have worked with a wide variety of individuals, couples and groups from a diverse range of socioeconomic, cultural and sexually diverse backgrounds to help empower them to overcome misaligned belief systems that were blocking their mental health, their sense of harmony and well-being. My psychotherapy and counselling work are primarily Adlerian based and incorporates an eclectic array of cognitive, psychodynamic, experiential, somatic and evidence-based therapies.

Now Accepting New Clients! Do you struggle with obsessive thoughts, behaviours, fear, panic or anxiety that keeps you trapped and from moving forward in life? Do you feel as though you have no control over your own mind and body? I can help you regain that sense of control, while improving your relationships, increasing your self-worth and your sense of hope for the future. I support teens and adults by cultivating self-acceptance and self-compassion, sharing powerful methods for handling challenging emotions, grounding them in the present, and guiding them to identify meaningful actions aligned with their values.

With a focus on creating a safe, welcoming space, my hope is that we can join together to support you on your journey of self exploration and mental wellness. Using warmth and empathy, we can explore feelings and thoughts of worry, and feelings of doubt or uncertainty all while noticing and highlighting your strength and resilience. As you grow and learn more about yourself, I offer empathy and genuine care and curiosity in helping you to feel better day to day and in creating the life you want.
