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.

The circumstances and issues that you are dealing with are unique to you, but you don't have to face them alone. Every individual has different experiences, perceptions, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, values, attitudes, cultural backgrounds and "upbringings". Counselling sessions are private and confidential, and can provide a way for you to explore your problems and really tune in to your feelings. This is an opportunity to speak freely about your circumstances and release pent up feelings, without having to worry about what others think or feel, and without receiving unwanted advise from family, friends or coworkers. At the root of the problem, there are very real, legitimate and understandable reasons for feeling the way you feel, thinking the way...(view profile to read more)

Patterns of self-sabotaging behavioural, disorganized thinking and overwhelming emotion make life very difficult. How can we move forward when our bodies seem to betray us and we just need a break from the buzzing anxiety or the numbing of depression? What you may not know is all these symptoms are the imprint of our unfinished business, stuck in the body and just begging to be seen, cared for and accepted. Working with me means looking with curiosity, compassion and an educated-eye at how old wounds of betrayal, abandonment and rejection show up to block living your best life. You are not alone and there is hope.

Psychotherapy helps clients understand their thoughts and associated 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 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.

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.

Clients wanting to understand thoughts & feelings they have now & that results in certain behaviours will be explored. Traumas in the past are looked at.

Therapy is conducted in a safe, supportive environment, allowing the Client to share their unique story.

I will help you explore your dynamics, and how your interaction with the world creates your experience.

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.

All of us experience challgnes at some time in our lives and some of us experience a pervasive impact from life events.

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.

Clients who receive psychotherapy from me will learn about the root of their issues and how to heal these wounds. Many issues we face in life are deep rooted in our childhood or resulting from traumas we have survived and need to be addressed to be truly free and achieve peace and serenity. I will help you learn to live a vital, rich meaningful life and overcome any mental health issues.

Many people are skeptical about the benefits of "talk therapy". However, two connected minds interacting and relating have proven to have enormous benefits for gaining clarity, producing insights and understanding, processing emotions and memories, and contributing to general health and wellbeing. Many of us are lacking in experiences of just being truly seen and heard. This alone can be very healing.
