I aim to support clients on their journey of greater understanding of themselves and their world. Together we will create a space for growth and find meaning in the trials and transitions that are inherent to life. I have a passion for working with women and couples as they prepare for pregnancy and parenthood.

I am available to work with adults and teens. I enjoy working with diverse cultures and the LGBTQ+ community.

Mental health issues impact the entire family; I can help you or your family cope with challenging situations and events. I specialize in helping teens, adults, couples and families impacted by ADHD, learning problems, anxiety, anger, depression or relationship concerns. If you or a family member have racing thoughts, sleepless nights, lack of focus, relationships concerns, I can help. I use neuropsychotherapy techniques to help people develop more healthy alternatives. For couples looking to improve their relationship, I offer a mix of "tools" and counseling.

I established my practice to provide sound therapy to those who are seeking to grow, heal, transition--to shift from established ways of coping that are no longer helpful and to heal from past pains that cause present distress. My approach is very engaging and practical and helps individuals and couples manage and experience their life and relationships in more stable and positive ways. I am able to help those with a myriad of life's stresses and complex emotions. For me, the client-therapist relationship is an honor and a privilege as we share this work together.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, or a past that's holding you back? I can help. Are you wanting to make a change, and are feeling stuck, or out of control? Are you ready to heal yourself from within? I can help! Counselling and hypnotherapy allow you to get to the source of negative beliefs and patterns so that you can heal from old wounds. You are better able to see how these patterns may have carried forward and left you feeling stuck in your current situation. Through this healing, you can release what no longer serves you and become who we truly want to be.

I believe in the power of positive change and transformational growth that therapy can provide to individuals and their families. Throughout life there are times when we need help and support. I am honored to work with you during these times of challenge.

I specialize in helping individuals live their authentic lives with integrity, intention and purpose.

I am honored to help my client’s not just survive but thrive in today’s uncertain world.

Are you feeling stuck and overwhelmed? Are your relationships nurturing or has life circumstances left those connections feeling stagnant? I believe in helping individuals achieve their best selves through a strengths-based perspective, focusing on a collaborative process to create the therapeutic goals together. Our therapeutic plan will reflect you as a whole person taking into consideration your body, spirit, emotional, and mental awareness. Pain does not discriminate and seeking quality care is a fundamental component of starting the journey of healing.

Eastside Insight is the psychotherapy practice of Rose Gillis. Eastside's name, logo, and motto reflect the belief that the elements needed for overcoming an issue are already within. Pulling this intelligence into consciousness is a form of learning called insight. When insight becomes blocked then a relationship with a confidant, who doesn’t feel burdened by your troubles, can help in the process of bringing your truth forward into awareness. It is important then to find a therapist who you connect with, is objective, and supports your needs. The website eastsideinsight.com was created for you, with this pursuit in mind.

Chronic stress, constant worry, a history of abuse, or traumatic events can lead to negative self-talk among many other problems. Current and past challenges can affect your relationships, ability to cope with emotions, physical health, or even cause a sense of being stuck at a point in life where you cannot get ahead. You may recognize you are no longer being your best self and are searching for a better mindset.

As a therapist, I believe it is a great privilege and honor to be a part of the journey through an individual's most challenging and rewarding life experiences. It takes a great deal of courage to seek therapy and look inward to face the parts of ourselves we may be uncomfortable admitting exist. Within every individual is the power to heal themselves and working collaboratively in therapy will help facilitate that realization. My approach focuses on building resilience and hope through a blend of modalities including but not limited to Gestalt, attachment-based, emotion-focused, and existential therapy.

My areas of interest include couples, maternal mental health, pregnancy-related issues, and self esteem.

During this pandemic, we are all learning how to adjust, plan, create, and live fully. Challenging life experiences can cause us to feel stuck: grief, trauma, unending decision-making, constant fear or worry, dealing with our 'new" reality. We suffer when we are not flowing, stuck in our thoughts, our feelings, our bodies; forgetting how to solve problems, not sure how to handle things, carrying too much emotional or physical pain. No matter what our personal situation is, we all need support from isolation and worry. I would be honored to help you now as you deal with life in so many new ways.

I work with children, teens, adults, and families. I believe that counseling is, first and foremost, a relationship; positive change can only take place when the relationship is based upon honest and open communication, collaboration, and trust. With individuals, my goal is to help you build upon your existing coping skills, deepen your insight, and work with you to develop healthier approaches that will improve your ability to handle future stressors, challenges, and losses. With families, my goal is to help identify challenges and collaborate on an action plan for family success.
