Welcome to one of my little corners on the internet. I am an RN Psychotherapist and associate at Janine Ruddy Online Psychotherapy. I typically work with those who are struggling with anxiety disorders, depression or school-related stressors—may that be perfectionism, procrastination, motivation, self-esteem issues, time-management and so forth. My approach to therapy is driven by compassion and empathy where we will work collaboratively on your goals. I am hoping you will be left with a vast tool box of skills as well as a more confident and peaceful outlook on life.

I became a therapist because, just like you, I am human and have had my fair share of battles. It took a long time for me to get to where I am today. I recognize that in moments of hopelessness, it is hard to find determination, that depression can be scary, that anxiety can be overwhelming, and that traumatic experiences can leave one feeling emotionally exhausted and drained out. I acknowledge the stigma associated with mental health and in going to therapy. For this reason, I know how crucial it is to provide therapy that is client-centered, empathetic, and unique to each person’s needs.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults who are seeking to navigate life in a more functional way.

Are you looking to make change in your life? I use cognitive behavioural therapy, which is based on years of research and empirical evidence, to help people get to the roots of their problems and make lasting change.

I strongly believe in a collaborative approach to therapy, and take a very active role in guiding my clients.

Claudine has been working with children and families for over a decade in many different roles, as a child protection worker, an advocate for new nursing moms, a crisis management worker with teenagers and their families as well as a parenting support counselor.
