Female Therapists in Bowmanville, ON

As a seasoned therapist, I've helped many people through experiences of anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, low self-worth, and relationship-based issues.

I have a special interest in supporting late-diagnosed women with ADHD shift from overwhelm and self-criticism, to vibrancy and self-acceptance. I also provide clinical supervision to qualifying therapists; if my caseload is full, I may be able to refer you to a therapist I'm supervising, so I can be part of your "behind the scenes" treatment team.

Do you feel like the world is overwhelming and that life just feels like a bit too much?

If you've never done it before, let me know, I'm happy to talk you through what it looks like and what you can expect.
