Burlington, ON L7L
I primarily work from a framework of Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ( CBT), Mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
As a clinical psychologist, I offer treatment for adults and couples. My typical client is a couple struggling with the lingering impact of trauma, conflict, and disconnection. They are usually seeking therapy to foster healing, growth, and a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationship. They are often looking to rebuild trust, overcome emotional barriers, and nurture healthier, more fulfilling relationships with themselves and others. Ultimately, couples want to feel more empowered to experience love in a way that feels safe, meaningful, and authentic. I am only accepting clients for -couples intensives- at this time.

Dr. Deborah Shaw
Psychologist
Burlington, ON L7R
Although my therapeutic orientation is primarily drawn from the principals of CBT, I use a client-centred and integrative approach that incorporates principles from other forms of therapy, including interpersonal and mindfulness, so that therapy is tailored to each individual client.
As an experienced licensed clinical psychologist, I offer evidence-based psychotherapy and consultation regarding a wide range of mental health conditions and situational stressors faced by youth during the pre-teen and adolescent years. My goal is to help my clients develop healthy and effective coping strategies in a caring, accepting, safe and client-centred environment. I provide individual therapy to late-stage adolescents through their college and and university years, and I work with parents to help them develop effective strategies to support their children to regulate their emotions and behaviour.

My approach is integrative and collaborative, drawing from CBT, ACT, DBT, EFT, SFT, and SRT, along with mindfulness-based and attachment-based perspectives.
Accepting new clients - Life can feel heavy at times. Anxiety can feel paralyzing, ADHD can leave you feeling misunderstood or “not enough,” and ongoing stress can make even everyday tasks feel exhausting. You may be navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, identity, self-esteem concerns, bicultural or BIPOC experiences, or patterns that keep showing up despite your best efforts. Therapy can provide a supportive space to explore these experiences, gain insight, and move forward in a way that feels more aligned with your needs and values. I aim to offer a space where we can work through these concerns together.

Accepting new clients - Are you struggling with anxiety, trauma, ADHD, avoidance, fear of rejection, career stress, or trouble with boundaries? Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them, such as people-pleasing, overthinking, emotional avoidance, or constantly fearing disconnection from others. If you’re longing to feel more grounded, confident, and connected, therapy can offer a space to reconnect with yourself, build self-compassion, and create meaningful, lasting change.
