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.

Psychotherapy with me will offer you a secure non-judgmental relationship to grow in your goals. Together we will explore what is bringing you into therapy and with compassion and curiousity notice what comes up for you when you seek to make change. As we explore what comes up, we will use tools to get to the roots of those blocks and discover deeper part of you that can provide you with that felt sense of relief and new found energy.

Here, you'll find a compassionate and non-judgmental space where we can explore the deeper aspects of your experiences, emotions, and relationships. My approach is client-centred, meaning that I tailor our sessions to your unique needs and goals. Together, we will work to uncover the patterns and influences from your past that shape your present, helping you gain insight and make meaningful changes. Through this process, you can develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and healthier ways of relating to yourself and others, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Individual emotional, behaviours and social issues can both result from distress in relationships and precipitate distress. Support in addressing individual problems can have a signifiacant positive impact on overall relationship functioning. The fact that relationships are one of our primary coping mechanisms multiplies the potential distress when individual problems are present as it impacts the very mechanisms we use to cope.

Psychotherapy is delving deeper into who you are--understanding yourself in the context of your history, culture, and what it means to be human. Sometimes we want a quick fix for a problem--such as relaxation techniques or ways to set boundaries--and sometimes we want to look deeper at our patterns. In my work I incorporate existential psychotherapy (for those who are interested), which looks at the big questions in life and how they show up for us--such as meaning, purpose, responsibility, isolation, fear of death and will to live, and how we deal with these.

I am truly an integrative counsellor. What this means is that I am more concerned with what you personally need as an individual, couple, or family, than I am about following a particular counselling theory. I will utilize whatever I believe will benefit you the most from each of them.

This will effect positive change in your life and relationships, and help you grow in awareness, compassion, understanding, respect, empathy and acceptance toward yourself and others.

I integrate contemporary neuroscience with time-tested therapeutic wisdom to create a transformative healing experience unique to your needs. You will benefit from a holistic approach that honours the inseparable connection between mind, body and relationships.

In psychotherapy, the foundation of our work is a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust and collaboration. You bring deep knowledge of yourself and your situation; I bring clinical skills and an outside perspective. Together, we create meaningful change. Our approach balances structure and flexibility—focused enough to work toward your goals, yet open to whatever thoughts and feelings arise each session. This allows therapy to feel natural and responsive to your actual experience rather than following a rigid formula. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, low self-esteem, or feeling stuck, you'll find a collaborative partnership where you're genuinely heard as we work toward the changes you need in your life.

Do you feel lost, like something is missing, or just not like yourself? Often, what we need to find our way is to have someone truly see, hear, and be with us in our emotions, without judgment. I offer you a safe, empathic space to share your story, years of experience and training, as well as a deep understanding of emotional needs; all of which can guide you toward taking the next step towards your goals. If you are ready to find your way again, just give me a call, and together we can get you feeling unstuck and moving forward.

Psychotherapy helps clients understand their thoughts and associated feelings. Understanding and identifying issues in our thought processes can reveal what is making us feel anxious, depressed, or a variety of other unwanted feelings. Talking helps clients cope with stressful situations in a safe and manageable way. Anyone who is overwhelmed by their problems and unable to cope can benefit from psychotherapy. Counsellors will help clients learn to identify distressing emotions, express feelings appropriately, and modify their approach to those around them. Overall, the improved levels of confidence provides the means to navigate life challenges in a healthier way.

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.

I will help you explore your dynamics, and how your interaction with the world creates your experience. Understanding is the first step in affecting, and as such, we will also create concrete strategies to address the changes you would like to see in yourself, your feelings, and your behaviours. I believe in a phenomenolgical approach to psychotherapy, and I respect the unique backgrounds and perspectives that every client brings to their exploration of self.

Psychotherapy can be effective and greatly beneficial for couples, individuals and families. We strive to create a safe and understanding environment where we work in a collaborative manor based on your goals and needs. We will work with a variety of techniques tailored to your specific needs providing optimal results. Through psychotherapy you can begin to see yourself and your world through a non partial and neutral lens. Through the clarity and acceptance of your authentic self we will work to build your tools for ongoing personal growth and success, independent of counselling.

I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) which is researched to be the best therapy for dealing with trauma when it is combined with cognitive therapy. There are big T traumas like accidents, rapes, etc. and small t traumas from childhood abuse (physical and emotional abuse). You will learn how your early childhood traumas are affecting your ability to have healthy current relationships.

I offer a multidisciplinary and relational approach to psychotherapy that includes early attachment work and a sensitivity to intergenerational dynamics and trauma, with a holistic orientation and evidence-based techniques. The role of the body in healing is central to my work, as I draw on many somatic practices. I also work with the arts as a healing modality. On the part of my clients, no experience in the arts is necessary. Whichever therapeutic modality we choose as best suited to your current journey, we work with the fundamental creative drive that is present in all of us to encounter the many facets of your healing pilgrimage necessary for growth and lasting change.

Annette is a psychotherapist with 25 yrs. experience assessing and counselling adults, youth and families. Annette will work with you to co-create realistic, practical and meaningful change you want to see. She will also provide a safe, warm and caring environment to explore and resolve your concerns. Some of the ways that counselling can be helpful...when someone sees you more clearly and reflects what they see, then you grow to see yourself more clearly. When someone helps you identify ways you keep yourself unintentially stuck, you are more free to change your patterns. Finally, when someone supports you with care and skill, you find the courage to take new steps.
