It's not just you, life HAS gotten harder in the last few years. 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.

Do you ever lay awake at night wondering why your child is acting or behaving the way they are? Why have they become so anxious? How did they become so aggressive? I will help children and youth navigate through their emotions, worries and self-defeating thoughts in a fun and engaging style. I will teach how to regulate emotions through breathing techniques, meditations, recreational activities or help them with strategies to fall asleep easier at night. If your child struggles in school or you receive frequent calls from the school, I can help navigate the school system to assist your child or youth to be as successful as possible.

Everyone struggles! This is just a fact. It comes with being human. We struggle in so many ways. We struggle with family, we struggle in our relationships, at work, with our children. We struggle with ourselves. Sometimes, it makes perfect sense why we are feel the way we feel, and for the most part, we get through it. But there are times when the struggle is too confusing, too consuming and we need someone to just listen and help us navigate the struggle. We want to get to a place that feels OK, maybe not amazing or incredible, but to a place where it feels like you're on the right path and can finally breathe.

It's heartbreaking to watch your child or teen struggle. Everything you see indicates they are hurting. Luckily, they’ve shared a little about what’s happening, but this has left you feeling even more uncertain about their needs- powerless to do anything about the hurt you can clearly see. It feels like things will never change. They have so much potential, and you would hate to see them miss it.

What type of mental health professional is right for me?
While most types of therapy have a lot in common, they also fall into clusters that share core features, such as cognitive therapies or psychodynamic approaches. It is important to seek someone who practices evidence-based therapy, meaning one or more forms of treatment that have been scientifically evaluated and tested, and demonstrate consistent improvement for a majority of patients.
If you are unsure about choosing the right therapist, psychologist, or counsellor, it might be useful to first learn more about therapy types and modalities.

How to find a therapist or counsellor in Peterborough?
When looking to find a therapist, start by considering training and credentials. Studies also indicate that the therapeutic alliance, or the relationship the client develops with the therapist, is an important factor in their ability to work together to achieve the client’s goals.
What method of therapy is right for me?
When it comes to treatment methods, there's no 'right way.’ Each method of therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues. Psychologists in Peterborough specialize in therapeutic approaches such as CBT, EMDR, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), among others. Finding a psychologist or therapist who is a good fit for you is the most important step to discovering what type of therapy, or combination of therapeutic approaches, will meet your individual needs. Learn what to expect from different types of therapy and how they work.
How to use my insurance?
Many therapists accept health insurance. Check to see if your insurance is covered. Feel free to discuss this when you contact the therapist.
