Therapists in Paris, ON

Welcome! I have experience working with adolescents, adults and couples with a variety of areas including depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, interpersonal challenges, life transitions, and other mental health concerns. I have co-facilitated a psychoeducation therapy group for adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Regardless of the reasons for starting your therapeutic journey, I am here to listen to your story. I am passionate about creating a place for clients to reconnect with their strengths and achieve their goals.

If you’re a parent looking for the right service for your child/youth, or you are an adult looking for a non-judgemental, authentic, down to earth, and compassionate therapist then look no further. I use an evidenced-based trauma and attachment treatment lens with my clients. We begin by building a therapeutic relationship and exploring support networks, strengths, and coping skills. This will also build a sense of empowerment that you (or your child) can use to navigate difficulties that may arise while transitioning to the next phase in your life/families life.

Devi uses different modalities in her therapeutic process according to the needs of the individual. She incorporates basics of Yoga, meditation and mindfulness in her approaches. She believes that one’s true happiness lies within themselves, and everyone deserve to live their life to the fullest. Are you ready to find happiness?

Do you ever feel alone in the world, or like no one understands you? Are you wondering if a difficult experience in your past has not been healed? Feelings of fear, guilt and shame prevent you from speaking your truth. You may be anxious about the future or feel hopeless but are afraid to talk to others about it.

Welcome to Therapy Heals! My goal is to develop safety and trust in our therapeutic relationship and to help you deepen your insight and develop self-awareness. I will support you in exploring your past experiences, understanding your patterns of behaviour, and help you make meaning of your experiences.

Are you struggling with grief and loss, sadness and depression, anxiety and frustration, or just the stress of everyday life? Loss is more than just losing a loved one. We have lost so much of what we knew as “normal” in recent years. Grief and loss are expected realities of life but you do not need to go through it alone. Connecting with the right therapist can be the first step in addressing your concerns and making a change. My intention is to just be human with you as we work together. I would be honoured to hear your story and support you in creating the rich and meaningful life that your deserve.

With over 25 years of experience, I offer compassionate listening, a calm presence and a place of trust, promoting positive personal growth for clients who are seeking help to address emotional, behavioural and relational difficulties. I have a special interest in helping people who have experienced grief, trauma and loss, including loss by suicide as well as people who have experienced childhood sexual abuse. I support clients in overcoming fear and shame by helping clients identify their strengths and needs. I enjoy working with couples focusing on communication, active listening, anger management and family of origin work.

We are hardwired for survival in this human experience. With time, what we do to survive can become patterns that limit us from feeling connected to our strength, vitality, and authenticity. You might be seeking therapy because you are confused about why you do what you do. Or, you might be at a loss over how to navigate the seemingly conflicting thoughts and feelings inside of you. I am honoured to sit with people who wish to make sense of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, so that clarity and new pathways can emerge.

Throughout my career I have worked with people of all ages and abilities, with a focus on grief and/or trauma related to loss through death. I view grief as an adaptive response to loss, one which can challenge our coping emotionally, physically, cognitively, behaviourally, socially, and spiritually, particularly when trauma accompanies the death. I work from a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and relational framework that puts your needs at the centre of our work.

I am not currently taking on new clients. You are welcome to email me to be added to my wait-list for January 2024! I offer a safe and relaxed space for clients looking to work on self-improvement. I value your time and have a high retention rate with clients, as I take the time to understand you and am transparent about the therapy process. I enjoy working with youth and adults hoping to increase life satisfaction, build better coping mechanisms and navigate life a little easier. My promise to you is to work with you to develop an individualized therapy plan that is going to work for your life and your goals!

I have always been curious about human behaviour and passionate about using that curiosity to help others. That curiosity led to building many meaningful connections. My goal is to connect with others, provide a safe place for discussions, and offer empathetic support without judgment. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I believe in the importance of empathy and building a strong connection with others. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors in healing and growth.

Are you worried about your child and how they are coping? Has your child’s behaviour changed recently? I am passionate about helping children thrive. I offer a play-based approach to challenging situations. I see children coping with grief, loss, life transitions, anxiety and anger. I am trained in Child Centered Play Therapy and use this along with a directive approach as needed. Children generally enjoying coming to therapy and engage easily with creative interventions, leading to important changes.

Welcome to Therapy Heals! I hold certifications in a number of areas and use a variety of approaches in my work, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), and HeartMath Therapy; a biofeedback technique that aims to regulate the nervous system toward optimal well being.

I am committed to helping clients build resilience and create a value-driven life. I believe in nurturing self-compassion and developing skills to engage with and overcome struggles. This happens through validation, exploration, and challenge and building a trusting, open relationship with my clients. My clients are experiencing anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, relational challenges, behavioral issues, ADHD, and coping with daily life. I specialize in providing support for teens, young adults, families, and adults in a safe, inclusive, and relaxed environment. This means a therapeutic space that is warm, welcoming, and affirming.

No wait list. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them manage life challenges, reach personal goals and improve overall quality of life. I provide a safe, non-judgemental space for you to feel heard and supported. Together, at your pace, we will explore the impact that thoughts and emotions have on your behaviours to create new patterns that bring positive change and wellness back to your life. I follow an anti-oppressive approach, supporting clients with diverse needs and backgrounds. Our sessions focus on the client's goals, strengths, developing coping strategies and fostering resilience.
