Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Southampton, ON

Are you concerned about your child/adolescent? Have they experienced divorce/separation, anxiety, depression, domestic violence, trauma, grief/loss, attachment issues, adoption, suicidal ideation, aggression, or self-esteem issues? Are they having issues with emotional regulation, behavioural challenges, coping skills, problems sleeping/eating or school problems. You may feel lost in knowing where to turn for help, and how to re-connect to your child. When children experience difficulties in their lives, they are often unable to express their feelings in traditional talk therapy.

I use a wide range of therapeutic interventions that best fit each client’s needs. My client-centred practice located in the heart of downtown Owen Sound and provides a calm environment in which clients can feel at home and comfortable. I am dedicated to helping facilitate change in my sessions and I look forward to meeting potential clients and working with them to achieve their therapeutic goals.

I love working with kids, adolescents, parents, families as well as adults with: symptoms of trauma, depression, anxiety, attachment issues, self harm, suicidal ideation, parent coaching, and children’s stress behaviours (e.g. anger, melt downs/explosive behaviours, fears, shame, guilt, separation anxiety, worries, isolation). I offer a supportive, non-judgemental, non-pathological, and mindful environment. My hope is that you may come to experience internal alignment, equilibrium, connection to emotional wisdom, trust within, presence, and freedom from old patterns.

My goal is to help individuals learn more about themselves through clinical psychological assessments. Assessments may help you gain some insight into diagnoses and underlying reasons why you are having difficulties. They also provide you with valuable recommendations and supports to help you thrive in your day-to-day life.

There are times in our life when it feels like nothing we do makes a difference. Problems become complicated by issues associated with our struggles managing mood or anxiety, feelings of shame, or coping with grief and loss. Situations such as transitions related to life stages, conflict or loss of connection in significant relationships, or changes in mental well being can be distressing and overwhelming. I work hard to build collaborative alliances with clients to co-construct different narratives about our relationship with problems, and develop alternative personal stories of strength, growth and recovery.
