Ravonn Kauffman’s counselling practice focuses on working with clients to achieve clear goals in a short period of time. Ravonn works with clients to make positive changes in a period of weeks or months - long-term treatment, while possible, tends to be undertaken only as a series of these smaller steps so that clients see progress, grow without developing dependence on the process and feel free to step away to try other approaches.

My clinical practice specializes in child, youth and family therapy for clients who are in need of additional support, services and coping strategies. As a Registered Social Worker with a Masters of Social Work, and as a Certified Child Life Specialist I have over a decade of experience. My strengths centre around anxiety, chronic illnesses, grief and bereavement, LGBTQ+ communities, depression, and other various needs.

Life is nothing short of amazing. It's amazing how much we can go through and live to tell about it. It's amazing how fast kids grow up and time flies, how angry a co-worker can make you, how much compassion we can seem to have for others when we struggle to offer any to ourselves. It's amazing how much we put on our plates when all we need is to rest. It's amazing how much we can long for understanding and connection and how much opportunity can be missed right in front of our eyes. It's amazing how short life is. It's also amazing how much we can learn in the time we have, and how little steps can amount to such massive change.

Tired of living an unauthentic life, trying to deal with addictions, anger issues, anxiety/depression or ongoing relationship issues? I CAN HELP. I have for over twenty five years worked with people from around the world on a myriad of LIFE issues, having international living, travel and study experience.

Life can be unpredictable. There are amazing highs and unbearable lows. I am passionate about my role in working alongside individuals to support them on their own personal journey. We all experience vulnerability. It can be tough to reach out and ask for help. The only step that you need to take today is to call. I will strive to empower you in taking the next few steps. I am a Registered Social Worker with twelve years experience working with youth, adults, and families. When we meet, I will welcome you with a warm disposition and genuine regard for your overall wellness.

Beginning or revisiting therapy is a big step, and I applaud you for starting the process of investing in your wellbeing. If you are 16 years or older and are struggling with stress, a life transition, mental health issues, a loss of someone or something, work struggles, relationship problems and/or more, I can offer relief and support. Life can be difficult, and it is beneficial to have someone help you navigate through it. I believe it is also healthy to have a safe outlet to reflect, self-discover, and heal. I would be happy to offer that for you.

I offer services in English and Spanish (Español). Many women go through toxic relationships where they feel devastated; however, they ask themselves if their perception is correct because there are no punches or blood involved. Likewise, women begin to doubt themselves as their sense of reality is altered and their cognition is put to the test. Another serious consequence of this condition is low self-esteem. Women think that they have no value and that there will be no one in the world who will love or desire them anymore. This is a call to all women who want to recover themselves. You Are Not Alone!

Therapy; it's a big step. And I'm eager to help. I whole-heartedly believe that each person is the expert on their own life, emotions and relationships. I am passionate about working with you to create a personalized approach to therapy. We all need a place to feel listened to, cared for, seen and understood. I have education, training, research, experience and my own therapy to assist in offering a tailored approach. I utilize an intersectional feminism and anti-oppressive practice model to create a therapeutic relationship that meets these needs, and assists in reclaiming trauma and removing barriers to living the life you desire.

We are a group of clinical psychologists and registered social workers who are passionate about the importance of mental health. Each clinician strives to create a trusting relationship with clients and values the opportunity to create a welcoming space. We utilize an integrative approach to therapy, meaning that our approach is grounded in evidence-based treatment and also the understanding that people are best served by a flexible approach that pulls from various theoretical frameworks. This allows us to tailor therapy to best suit individual needs and wishes. We all have different approaches, experiences, and clinical styles.

John O'Donohue wrote: "Our bodies know they belong; it is our minds that make our lives so homeless." You may resonate with this statement. You may feel tension, sadness, disconnection, discouragement, or fear. Our minds tend to pull us into the past or make us feel anxious about our future. Stress and overwhelm can flood our senses or distract us from the cues our bodies are trying to tell us. Big emotions can interfere with the person we are trying to become and can impact the relationships we are trying to cultivate.

Every person could, at some point in their lives, use some extra support to help them through something they are dealing with. It may be anxiety, depression, infertility, relationship or parenting stress, loss, or normal life events that feel overwhelming or exhausting. I'm here to support you as you work through these issues and move towards change. I provide trauma-informed care and I want to help you find the strengths you already have and empower you to promote positive change and growth in your life. I am happy to provide in-person, virtual, or phone counselling depending on your wishes and needs.

If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.
