Ceilidh understands the weight that many men carry - the kind that’s often unspoken. With over 12 years of experience working alongside military personnel, veterans, and first responders, she knows that many of the strongest individuals are also the most silent when it comes to their own emotional pain. Whether it’s from the battlefield, the pressures of the job, or early life experiences, Ceilidh recognises how trauma, suppressed emotions, and unresolved anger can shape how you show up in your relationships, your parenting, and your sense of self.

Alright, so you have probably scrolled through a lot of Psych Today profiles already and are struggling to find the right fit. You realize that something in your life needs to change, and you cannot quite put a finger on what that is. You're exhausted, burnt out, and questioning every decision in fear of making the wrong choice. You're not sure whether this feeling is past trauma breaking into the present or anxiety about the future preventing you from being fully in-the-moment. You want to learn more about yourself and why you do the things you do, but you don't know where to start.

Adults finding ADHD symptoms are impairing their personal relationships and/or professional role may need new coping strategies.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I use body-based Somatic practices. Young adults struggling with increasing independence, or couples establishing boundaries are areas we can address together. Supporting difficult transitions has been core to my career, whether helping incarcerated youth set a new life path or leadership teams launching organizational change.

Do you wonder if life or your relationships could feel calmer, clearer, and more connected? Do you struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, or relationship challenges? Do you feel overwhelmed or exhausted by stress or the pressure to keep everything together? Many of my clients feel anxious and uncertain about navigating life transitions, managing stress, or repairing strained relationships. When these struggles go unaddressed, they can lead to disconnection, conflict, and exhaustion. Therapy can help by providing a space to explore your experiences while developing practical tools that support change.

I work with individuals navigating stress and the emotional impact of high-demand lives. My work is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, and I am trained in EMDR to support deeper processing. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and used to holding a great deal together in their daily lives. Over time, that can start to feel like pressure, disconnection, or a sense of being stuck in patterns that don’t fully make sense.

FAQ - About Adult Counselling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioural therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.

How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists in Canada hold various licenses depending on their training and provincial requirements. Common therapy credentials include Registered Social Workers (RSW), Registered Psychotherapists, and Certified Canadian Counsellors (CCC). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.

How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
