Psychotherapy is a process of gaining an awareness of one's issues which leads to improving the understanding of one's issues. Following this, the process of psychotherapy is to follow through with some form of therapeutic action to either improve the awareness, increase one's understanding or resolve the issues that one originally came in to psychotherapy for.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

If you are looking to have a thorough understanding of your personality, with the goal of the greatest possible degree of growth and change, psychotherapy will help you. People may make behavioural changes through counselling but do they change on the inside? From my experience, long-lasting change needs to be congruent with one's inner self. Psychotherapy is usually longer term and more "in depth" but the rewards and benefits are richer and life long.

Psychotherapy includes a more long-term exploration into one's inner functioning, in order to make lasting change. While doing psychotherapy, I assist my clients to look into their inner life, which often includes looking back at family of origin issues or past relationships to learn how one has become who they are today, and then identifying areas where they would like to see change. We then work to shift these patterns of being to create a more fulfilling, peaceful life, with healthier choices.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy is a process of working through beliefs, emotions, trauma and current life events that enables you to move forward uncencumbered by destructive beliefs and emotions. Psychotherapists are trained to listen and interact with you in ways that facilitates the unlocking of traumatic and habitual ways of thinking and behaving so that you can live more freely and consciously.

As a Registered (Provisional) Psychologist, I will work along side you to support you in what you want to change about your life. Consider me a partner, coach, therapist, and collaborator as we work together to develop an understanding of the issues and challenges you face. I believe that change requires a road map so that we know the direction we are headed. Imagine taking a trip without a map or destination in mind. Once we have an idea or plan of where you want to be in your life, charting a course for change becomes a process of discussing alternative ways to get there. My client-centered approach adapts to the goals, needs, and learning preferences of clients.

Sometimes people feel overwhelmed and need guidance and support in confronting their issues, including (but not limited to) depression, anxiety, couples and relationship issues, trauma, stress, motivation, isolation, self-esteem and suicidal thoughts.

Finding the right therapists is not easy, and so we offer a free 20-minute consultation with our team to make sure that you have the right fit *before* you commit to a psychotherapy session with us.

Psychotherapy sounds complicated. It does not need to be. It occurs when two people talk it can be effective or ineffective. With a combination of experience, education and practice a therapist can help create a therapeutic encounter that is beneficial and effective for a person. Raue, Goldfried, & Barkham, (1997) highlight how the therapeutic relationship is key to a client progress or engagement in therapy. It is my desire to create a space where this relationship can grow and be beneficial to my clients.

Many people tell me that they were worried about talking to a psychologist before they talked to me. People are relived to find out that what we talk about it up to them, and that this process helps you identify your strengths. Once you know what you're good at, we can use those qualities to help you move forward in your life. I am here to support, guide and cheer you on!

I envision psychotherapy as a growth process. I know the medical model well; I just don't center my therapeutic approach on treating diseases. I treat people. Rather than diagnose-treat-cure, my model is connect-interact-become. It's a personal growth model. The willingnesss to permit a professional to facilitate your personal growth is not a disease; it's an accomplishment.

Psychotherapy happens when the right conditions are met that support the psyche to heal and come into congruence. The relationship with the therapist is authentic, meaningful and changes both the therapist and the client. The focus is on emergence of your true self and healing from the confusion, shame and trauma that has caused so much damage to your whole self.

My approach to psychotherapy is that change takes time. I work long term with most of my clients so that they may realize "real" change in their lives. Psychotherapy to me, is more than counseling. Counseling tends to focus on techniques and solutions; however, psychotherapy is a process of change. This process will the experienced with me in the room and also during the time between sessions. The commitment to the process of change is crucial for successful results.

I practice integrative psychotherapy, combining both knowledge from psychological theory of change along side our increasing understanding of neuroscience and neurological process of thought, behavior, and emotions. Through combining the science of psychotherapy with neuroscience (neuropsychotherapy) we can find meaning for your experience and distress that is supported by existing evidence.

Hate to break it to you but.....the one size fits all method of psychotherapy doesn't work. Everyone is different and so should their therapy be. My approach to therapy is rooted in a client centered perspective, which means we will run with whatever resonates with you! I also firmly believe in building a solid trusting relationship in therapy. When a person knows they are heard, not alone and cared about - life gets better. I'm also really fond of humor in therapy and... I think I'm funny - consider yourself warned.

Whether you are overwhelmed, lost, or struggle to make changes in your life - you have the ability to change, grow and move forward. Mallory's counselling techniques are derived from proven methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion focused therapy, motivational interviewing and solution focused therapy. Her holistic approach integrates all aspects of the person: physical, mental, and spiritual within their social and physical environment in a compassionate environment.

Psychotherapy leads to in-depth understanding about ourselves. This understanding is prerequisite to engaging intimately with others and having conscious control over our needs are reactions. The therapeutic relationship established is the context where psychological change is possible. Psychotherapy is appropriate for both long-tern and short-term healing.

Nicolas utilizes a form of therapy called Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) which was developed by Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg. SFT concentrates on solutions and preferred futures in preference to problems. In using this theoretical approach, Nicolas amplifies clients’ strengths and abilities that are already being used to combat the clients problem.

Psychotherapy offers a process in which you are able to develop healthier ways of being in the world. Often through difficult life events you develop beliefs and habitual ways of interacting with others that keep you stuck in old patterns. Psychotherapy enables you to transform physical and emotional blocks that hinder you. You can create healthier beliefs and behaviours that lead to happier and more joyful interactions with yourself and others.

A strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation of effective psychotherapy. I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment in which to explore your presenting concerns and gain insights into how they came to be. I draw upon the knowledge gained from my extensive training and life experience in order to tailor a treatment plan just for you. Clients typically leave my sessions feeling lighter and with increased mental clarity. Not only do I provide support, but guidance on how you might handle your current situation.

Psychotherapy can help when an individual feels life is awfully difficult. Moreover, psychotherapy can also make a straight life even better . Psychotherapy is suggested whenever a person is grappling with problems in life for example relationship issues, anxiety, anger or other mental health concerns, and these issues are creating the individual lots of hurt or upset for longer than a week. There may be exceptions to this common rule, but for the most of the cases, there is no harm in going into psychotherapy even if someone is not entirely confident that it would benefit from the counseling.

Psychotherapy is a broad term that includes any kind of counselling support that helps alleviate mental and emotional distress. I am a registered psychologist, and I offer a compassionate and practical approach to counselling. When you come for counselling, I am there to listen to you and support you. You set your goals, and I help you find ways to achieve them. Depending on the individual and the issue, this can be short-term or long-term counselling support. Psychotherapy is an opportunity to increase self-awareness and personal skill-sets that can help you for life.

Psychological freedom comes not from the lack of so called "negative" emotions, instead it comes from the ability to understand their source and use their strength appropriately. Challenges often come either from the denial of difficult emotions, or from allowing emotions too much control. Confusion or uncertainty around how to interpret our emotional self creates difficulties in our day-to-day lives, our relationships, our confidence. Let me show you how even extreme anxiety such as OCD or generalized anxiety, anger, jealousy, depression, and even PTSD symptoms can be managed through Emotion Focused Therapy.
