Catherine Jun Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

You may be contemplating therapy because you are struggling - feeling anxious, overwhelmed, unsettled, isolated and alone, maybe even experiencing uncharacteristic rage. You may be stuck in old patterns of coping that are no longer relevant in the present. In fact, they may be getting in the way of your peace, your potential and your happiness - in short, keeping you stuck. It doesn't have to be that way. As a client-centred, trauma-informed relational psychotherapist, I believe good relationships - intimate, familiar, communal, and especially, the one you have with yourself - are essential to feeling good.

Sometimes, it can be difficult to live with big feelings, and we need to find healthy or different ways to cope. I have several years of individual and family therapy experience working at a children's mental health agency offering individual and family therapy. I support adolescents, young adults and families through various challenges including anxiety, ADHD, emotion dysregulation, and relationship conflicts. Whether it is a one-time session, brief work, or ongoing sessions, I believe everyone can use support at one time or another.
Marc LeMyre - Trauma Therapy & Creativity
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, GT, RP
Verified
When we’re facing a major life crisis or wanting to unpack the trauma of our childhood, anxiety and depression often get in the way and create a form of paralysis. In such painful situations how change can occur is extremely difficult to imagine. Psychotherapy is an organic process to help us change; seek our authentic self, develop our relationships with others, and to discover how to regulate our nervous system. We can relearn how to play i.e., by uncovering our (temporarily) lost sense of joy. We can reframe and update the self so as to create tools helping us navigate life’s beauty and paradoxes!

I am a Registered Psychotherapist, and Registered Marriage and Family Therapist, working with individuals, couples and families. I offer a relational approach which creates an emotionally safe non-judgemental place for my clients to share the content of their stories, circumstances, and life experiences. I have worked with a wide range of clients within the realms of cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and relational issues, however at the root of nearly all presenting problems is the emotional impact of a relationship. My specialty in relationships has therefore enabled me to work confidently, and effectively with my clients regardless of their identified issue.

Thank you for considering therapy at The Cope Clinic.

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP

Hi, I'm Ting Ting. At A Journey Inward Therapy, I work with professionals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress/burnout, fatigue, trauma, self-criticism, & concerns related to the pandemic. It can be isolating and exhausting to keep doing all that you have do while feeling like you’re barely hanging in there. Therapy can help to provide clarity in times of overwhelm, calm turbulent emotions, and increase resilience. I strive to make going to therapy feel like stepping into a safe space, where you’re being met with warmth, empathy and nonjudgement. A space where you can unburden yourself, explore freely, and share confidentially.
