Therapists in M2M

Hello, my name is Michelle. I am passionate about exploring with you, your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that affect the self and your relationships. I want to provide a safe and supportive environment for you to develop personal growth and transformation. I work from an attachment and strength based framework. Together, we will work collaboratively to improve communication skills, strengthen relationships, and describe how family dynamics affect you. I am committed to help you find meaning, present insights, and establish positive changes in your life. Please call/email me to see if I am the right fit for you in your journey.

My ideal client is willing to engage in self-reflection, explore the deeper existential issues related to his/her predicament, and discover the pathways of actualizing his/her potential and dream. Such a client can be a new college graduate struggling for a better understanding of her self-identity or a senior questioning his life's meaning. The issues I am best suited to addressing are both the dark sides of the human condition-such as depression, anxiety, anger, loss, suffering, and death-and the bright sides of personal growth and flourishing.

Do you find yourself overwhelmed by anxiety, unsure of its origin, and constantly doubting your choices and abilities? Let's embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing together. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, stress, or relationship challenges, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way. Together, we honor every aspect of your identity and experiences as we navigate this mental health journey.

I provide "Couples Intensives", helping couples in making their relationship the best it can be...all the way to those who cannot decide, "Should I Stay or Should I Go?" Bring your painful and complicated life-stories including family of origin trauma, affairs, addictions, boundary and self-esteem issues, and sexuality concerns. Come for a full day intensive, or to a series of 4-6, two to three hour couple's sessions, using a Relational Life Therapy approach, (Terry Real) because you just don't feel close anymore!

From relationships to anxiety, life’s challenges and changes can leave you feeling unsure of the path you’re on. Maybe you’re having relationship issues, adjusting to life as an empty-nester or you’ve uncovered news about your family history that has you questioning who you really are. These changes can leave you feeling anxious, sad and confused. With over 18 years of experience, I offer counselling that can provide you with a different perspective and new tools for managing life’s challenges. In a relaxed and open-minded setting, we’ll work together to identify how you want to feel in your life-and find your brighter path forward.

Are you desiring greater awareness, joy, and connection in your life? It is my passion to provide therapeutic care and guidance for you to overcome stress, anxiety, fear, diversity concerns, and relationship issues along with other mental health impacts. I encourage you to seek greater wellbeing by building coping skills, restoring hope and improving your ability to manage emotions, as you access self-compassion. It is a joy to work with youth and adults who are ready to start thriving fully in their lives.

Life handed me lemons. Can I "make lemonade "? ​Yes, you can. You have what it takes! As a therapist I'm of the belief that we have the internal resources to be able to generate positivity and resilience to bring us through tough times. I am here to guide.

Hi, I’m Éva. My approach to therapy is relational, systemic, and strength-based. I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and am informed by Family Systems Theory. I hold an empathic and non-judgmental stance. I work collaboratively and relationally, recognizing that you are the expert of your unique story. I believe our relationships with ourselves, partners, family, and friends can often be the source of our greatest joys and deepest pains and frustrations – I’ve been there. Through my own growth journey, I've learned that our families, environments, and societal contexts have a real impact on us.

From surviving to thriving: I passionately and unconditionally inspire you to explore your inner world, so that you can discover and convey YOUR uniqueness and potential to your life.

As a Professional Counselor and Clinical Social Worker for over 12 years, I have spent much of my career working with teenagers, adults and families in various settings such as Probation and Parole Services, community agencies and treatment centres. I am highly skilled compassionate, empathetic and solution focused Clinician who is looking forward to work with you build confidence in your own abilities, learn new skills, eliminate problem behaviors, restore hope and regain control thus achieving your goals. I welcome the opportunity to work together with you, to achieve the level of functioning you desire.

**NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS IN PERSON AND REMOTELY** I pride myself in offering clients an approach that is dedicated to understanding their goals through a collaborative counselling experience. I create a safe and calm space to facilitate a strong therapeutic connection with clients. With gentle curiosity and openness, I invite clients to tell me about their world and experience, so I can learn from them. I believe that healing is possible for everyone and it is my joy to help a client unlock their full potential for happiness and health. It’s not about merely helping clients to survive the day to day but helping clients to thrive!

Are you feeling stuck? Emotionally overwhelmed? Or unsure what steps to take next in your journey towards healing? Reaching out and seeking support may seem “simple” but is often the most courageous thing we can do. Therapy can provide the space for you to share your story – and be seen, heard, known, and cared for by another. This process often lays the foundation for discovering who you are and overcoming life’s challenges.

With a deep curiosity for the human condition, I practice Integrative Therapy, combining elements drawn from various methods (including EMDR, SE, CBT, mindfulness, and the Tri-Phasic Trauma Practice Model) to create a tailored approach for each individual and situation. I believe healing is a collaborative endeavour, and the therapeutic relationship is as important as the therapy itself. I offer virtual services, including individual counselling, group therapy, and supervision—As well as 20-minute complimentary consultations. Direct billing is available through Canada Life, Green Shield, SunLife, and Blue Cross/Medavie.

I recognize and appreciate that starting therapy can feel worrisome. A successful therapeutic alliance requires a strong sense of safety and security before diving into a personal narrative about trauma or relationship concerns. The therapeutic journey evolves with consistent and effective dialogue, skills, and resources demonstrated throughout the therapeutic process. You are the captain of your ship, and I am privileged and honoured to sail alongside you.

It is highly unlikely that anyone gets through life without some type of challenge at some time in his or her life. Individuals who seek therapy are serious about addressing these challenges in order to live a more balanced, fulfilling life. We work with our clients to first understand the issue, explore options and to form new understanding of themselves and their experience. We view our work with our clients as highly valuable and of critical importance to the overall health and stability throughout the lifespan.

What are you going through? Let’s work together to sort it out, make steps towards recovery, & come to resolution and healing. In a safe and non-judgemental space we focus on your challenges, symptoms and needs. Whether you are seeking individual, couple, or family therapy we can engage in the most appropriate therapeutic solutions for you. I have 20 years experience in the field and have specialized training in treatment for anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, OCD, PTSD, & trauma in addition to couples therapy. I’m trained in EMDR, CBT, DBT, EFT etc. I am also the therapist for therapists.
