Therapists in P7B

Struggling with your mood, worries, or relationships can leave you feeling overwhelmed and isolated, sometimes even confused about why you’re feeling unhappy or unfulfilled. Therapy can be a great tool for you to learn about yourself, work towards change, and navigate the ebbs and flows of life. I strive to provide a safe and compassionate environment, one where you feel comfortable exploring the aspects of your life that will help you achieve self-compassion, understanding and healing.

As a therapist who goes to therapy, I know the anxiety of getting started and the value of having done so. As many of us have, I’ve faced my fair share of adversity – from a difficult childhood, to a cancer diagnosis, and learning to live with adult ADHD (and everything in between). It’s easy to feel stressed out, discouraged, lost, to not what to do or where to turn… that’s where I come in! I understand that life can be a hard and heavy thing to do and know the benefit of having a safe spot to land - to work through hard times, learn to cope, or invest in our self-development.

Every person deserves a chance to live their best life. Sometimes mental health issues can get in the way of having good relationships, attending work or school, or being social. I believe that everyone has potential to address these difficulties in a way that helps them deal with problems now, and also learn to get through them in the future. I provide non-judgmental services that are the most up-to-date and backed by research. I am excited to work with you to reach your personal goals for living your best life.

Hi I'm Kathy! I am of Algonquin Anishinaabe and English European heritage. I am a proud member of the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation. Like many Anishinaabe people, I come from a family of story tellers. Whether we were sitting around the kitchen table or the campfire, stories were the way we understood where we came from and how we knew where we belonged in the world. As I got older, I began to wonder about the stories that weren’t told. The stories that were too painful to share. Becoming a therapist has allowed me to create a safe space to explore, understand, and give voice to our most painful stories.

The world can be a dark and heavy place, and that's why I believe kindness, compassion, and hope are so important. I try to bring all of these values to my practice as a therapist, where I will strive to connect with you by cheering on your personal growth, sitting with you in the dark, and listening to your story. We will work together to help you achieve your goals and gain confidence. I offer a listening ear, tools and advice, and a safe-place where you can lay it all out and trust that you will be treated with honour and respect.

Whether you are coming to therapy in a moment of crisis, after years of stress and pain, or just needing another person to share your more guarded thoughts with - therapy is for you. I work with individuals experiencing grief and loss, anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns such as trauma, stress, and low self-esteem/self-confidence. I have a special interest in working with couples who are struggling with major life stages, recovering from an affair, or looking to enhance their communication and strengthen their relationship.

The most important relationship we have is with ourselves - and sometimes that relationship can be the most challenging to heal. Maybe you’re struggling to adjust to unfamiliar situations and feel uncertain about the future. Maybe you’re feeling ‘stuck’. Or maybe you’re curious and open to self-exploration! I have experience supporting individuals with life transitions (i.e., job loss/new employment, divorce/separation, pregnancy/prepartum/postpartum, return to education, relocation), anxiety, stress and burnout, ADHD, trauma, interpersonal challenges, and relationship and intimacy challenges.

I presently exclusively offer online sessions while working closely with a dedicated team at Strength Counselling Services. My deep-seated passion is rooted in delivering compassionate support and fostering a secure and nurturing space for my clients as they embark on their personal journeys of growth and self-discovery. By prioritizing a client-centered approach, I firmly uphold the belief that individuals possess an inherent wisdom about their own lives. Grounded in this belief, my goal is to guide clients in pursuing their objectives while respecting their distinctive values and autonomy.

Finding the right therapist for you is an imperative and sometimes daunting task. To help you make this important decision, let me tell you a bit about myself. I have always enjoyed connecting with others, and have worked in the social work field for the past 15 years. My approach to therapy is non-judgmental, honest, and may even include a sarcastic joke. I have found that humour can be an excellent catalyst to healing and connection. I have worked with individuals and groups struggling with a variety of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, and trauma.

My desire to work as a therapist comes from my passion and enthusiasm for connecting with others and my core belief that healing happens through our relationships with ourselves and others. Growth and development are an ongoing journey for all of us. Whether you're struggling with your mental health (i.e. depression, anxiety, trauma), working on self-development, in the process of healing, or you simply need a safe place to talk, I am here for you. I work to make you feel as comfortable as possible to support you through the process of taking care of your mental well-being.

I work mainly with professionals in healthcare, emergency services, social services, education, energy/body work, and correctional services. I understand the unique needs of individuals working in helping professions and the health and relational consequences of chronically stressful workloads. It can be difficult to find the “right” therapist for those working in such specialized fields. I get you. I’m not a typical talk therapist and am passionate about delivering an individualized service that meets your needs in a way that an EFAP provider cannot.

As a registered psychotherapist, I know that when we aren’t feeling our best, we tend to view ourselves as irreparable, broken, and end up directing a great deal of shame towards ourselves. I also know that pain is part of the human experience and is often trying to tell us something. When we can be curious with our pain rather than fearful, we are more able to take action to solve problems. Sitting with someone in your pain who can help you facilitate self-compassion and curiosity and identify what you may need can make a big difference.

You are worth the time it takes to heal, in whatever way feels right for you. Do you ever wonder if there's more to life? Maybe you feel an ache inside, like you have so much potential... but something is getting in the way. You might long for more clarity, fulfillment, and inner peace. But what is the path to get there? Sometimes this requires support (which can be hard to ask for or prioritize). The first step is the most important - and the path may be closer than you think.

Experiencing trauma does not have to hold you back. I specialize in supporting those who are navigating how past childhood, relational, betrayal, intergenerational, or complex trauma may have impacted their relationship with themselves, their body, and with others. This may present itself as struggling with disordered eating, emotional eating, body image, self-esteem, attachment, relationship struggles, people pleasing, anxiety, and/or perfectionism. Together, we can process past trauma, nurture our unique nervous systems, break patterns that keep us feeling stuck, and move towards a life of self-trust and embodiment.

At its core, therapy is all about you. After all you are the expert about your life. So if you are looking for a therapist that will crack a joke in therapy, instill hope, celebrate your success, and hold space for the dark and heavy stuff you have yet to ever say out loud... you are in the right place. I'm here to help you process it all so you can let go, restore, and grow. If you are ready to surprise yourself with your capacity for growth and want to unblock yourself from living a life that is meaningful to you, please connect!

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.

Hey there, I'm Carlyn! You may be seeking support for any number of reasons - perhaps you are feeling disconnected from others or are looking to strengthen your relationship with yourself. You may feel as though you are stuck in a loop and unsure as to how to move forward or break free. Regardless of what brings you to therapy, it is my privilege to provide space for my client's stories and experiences. My aim is to help you to understand how the challenges you are facing today are impacted by the experiences and traumas of your past and help you to move towards your most resilient and authentic self.
