Find a Therapist in Beaverton, Ontario.

Psychotherapy is primarily a talk-based therapy and is intended to help you improve and maintain positive mental health and well-being. I work with individuals, couples and families in individual and group settings. Psychotherapy occurs when the Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and client enter into a psychotherapeutic relationship where both work together to bring about positive change in the client’s thinking, feeling, behaviour and social functioning. Individuals usually seek psychotherapy when they have thoughts, feelings, moods and behaviours that are adversely affecting their day-to-day lives, relationships and the ability to enjoy life.

Kindred Hope Wellness' team of psychotherapists provides psychotherapy for clients. In doing so, we can address anxiety, stress, depression, self-esteem, relationships, and many other concerns you may carry. Our team's approach is acknowledging that you are the expert in your life and your therapist is here to listen, guide, and support you. Each individual is unique, so the main approach is to find what fits you best by collaborating together to walk on your journey.

There can be lifelong benefits to pursuing psychotherapy. Many people experience personal insights and significant improvement in their overall mood. Psychotherapy can target specific issues, such as: worry, irritability, anxiety, sadness, lack of motivation, etc., or it can improve general mental health and well-being by helping you take back control of your life.

Through the use of acceptance and mindfulness strategies, I can help clients to be fully present in the moment and to accept otherwise negative emotions. Commitment and behavior change strategies help clients to change or persist in behaviors more in line with their own values. Used together these strategies increase client’s psychological flexibility.

Psychotherapy is a collabortive process between the therapist and client. Together, we explore and adjust your thoughts, feelings and behaviors that may be maintining a depressed mood, anxiety, or problems in your relationships. We work together to solve problems, and to improve your over all sense of well-being. Psychotherapy requires a safe and supportive client therapist relationship, and my relaxed and friendly approach facilitates this therapeutic process.

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.

Are you struggling with feeling "not quite yourself" lately? Has this begun to make it difficult to function in your day-to-day life? Perhaps the pandemic's got you down or you are challenged by past trauma or regret. Inner Alchemy Psychotherapy can help you reframe your perspective and life story, opening you up to new and different possibilities for what you had previously imagined for yourself. If you have always lived your life on the fringe and have always felt doubtful that you'd find a therapist who would "get" you, Inner Alchemy Psychotherapy is for you. My ideal clients are those who have alternative approaches to relationship, spirituality, and lifestyle.

While I offer many coping strategies for life challenges, it is my passion to help you discover the cause of your anxiety, depression, grief, anger, conflict in relationships. Exploring your past trauma experiences, childhood history and family of origin, you may understand who you are and your responses in a new way. Listening, listing new options and action steps to think and feel differently are part of this counselling process.

My approach involves drawing on various modalities (e.g., dialogic, narrative, solution-focused, emotion-focused) that fit the unique needs of clients. I hope to create an environment for clients where they feel a sense of safety to express their reflections, thoughts, and concerns. I take on a non-judgmental, non-expert stance and firmly believe that clients have everything that they need already within them- my role is to simply remind you of who you are or to help you discover who you would like to be through supportive, therapeutic conversations. If you are interested in learning more about my approach and to see if we would be a good fit, please contact me for a free consultation.
