When your body says no, and you keep saying yes... Anxiety, panic attacks, sadness, guilt, added relationship strains, intimacy issues, and a sense of loss begin to arise. You've been the good child, the perfect worker, the one who keeps going. You've played the part, worn the mask, from the social media rock-perfect parent to the 'jolly' partner. The result: Burnout. You're running on empty, wondering how you got here and when will It stop. The performance loop continues. While my clients are often veterans and first responders in the aftermath of service, I welcome all to reclaim stillness, wonder and a life of your own.

You don't have to carry this alone. Maybe you look like you're coping on the outside-functioning, responsible, capable-but inside you feel exhausted, disconnected, or overwhelmed. Perhaps you're in a season of life that feels confusing or heavy. Menopause, relationship strain, caregiving, burnout, or a quiet sense that something needs to change.

I work with adults and youth in Ontario via teletherapy (online) and in person in Hamilton (office and on nature trails).
Hi there! I'm Courtney, and I work with children and their parents, youth, and adults. Sometimes when you feel overwhelmed, it’s hard to know where to start. You may feel stressed out about your situation, but uncertain about what to do. Maybe you've tried therapy before, or you are intimidated to start. Or perhaps it's your child or teen who you are concerned about. Trying to do it all alone and without support is hard, but reaching out for help isn't easy.

Sometimes people come to therapy because they have lost faith in themselves. I hope that’s not you, but if it is, I am confident that we can rebuild together. I know what it's like to feel lost or stuck. We also go to therapy because we have lost faith in trying to solve our problems alone. Good. Why try to solve everything alone? It's not a great strategy. We also come when develop a small, fragile hope that maybe, just maybe, we can find a competent aid who can provide a renewed sense of wellness and direction. Someone professional, but human, wise and well-trained, but also down-to-earth, and relatable.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
