I am an assessment psychologist with over 20 years of combined experience working with struggling students and their families as a teacher, a learning strategist, a guidance counsellor, a community educator, an advocate, and a school psychologist.

Do you try to make changes, but they don't stick? Are you feeling depressed, anxious or just not happy for too long? Do you repeat unhealthy relationship patterns? Working with me may allow you to make changes that stick. I am a registered psychologist and a life, and business coach who works with adults, adolescents and couples. In our work you will get clear on changes you want and develop effective skills, identifying and using your own strengths to make those changes. A solution approach focuses on what is working and strengths you already have in your repertoire.

You're overwhelmed and second-guessing everything. Often you feel like a failure and an imposter and wonder how you got here. Some days you’re the man you want to be, and others, you’re barely holding it all together. There are days when you feel lost, hopeless, and lacking direction. Stress, anxiety, fear, anger, and even depression are negatively impacting your relationships, your work, and your sense of confidence. You want so much more from your life but are not sure how to get there.

I am keen to collaborate with Individuals and couples wanting to discover and understand the underlying factors which may be contributing to their symptoms of distress and conflict in their lives and in their relationships. Together we will develop a therapeutic alliance: influenced by curiosity; mindfulness; and self-compassion; that will focus on creating, and trying to achieve, your unique treatment goals. I am passionate about mental and emotional health, and I enjoy guiding and supporting clients while they strive to improve and change their lives.

Onward Psychology Group focuses on supporting a wide range of children, adolescents, and adults (and their families) . We believe that we are all complex, life-long learners, but that some people are more complex than others. Anxiety, giftedness, social and academic challenges, and any number of other complexities can result in frustration that affects not only the individual, but the entire family. We focus on discovering the unique strengths of each individual so we can capitalize on those areas while also identifying areas of challenge so we can build on or, as necessary, plan to avoid those areas.

As a compassionate and experienced mental health expert, I am committed to empowering clients facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief and loss, OCD, trauma-related disorders such as PTSD, and neurodiversity (including autism or ADHD) in achieving their well-being and recovery objectives.

Our journey in life is filled with obstacles, twists, and turns that can feel overwhelming. Stress and anxiety are more prevalent than ever before, and with all the ways we have to connect with other humans, we've never felt so isolated. Most of us need some help along the way - a navigator for our journey. I admire the courage it takes to seek this help and I’m confident that I can effectively guide you toward improved mental health and wellbeing. Often, mental health concerns are not so much the result of distorted views of the world; the views are merely incomplete.

I enjoy working with adults, adolescents and couples. My experience includes working with individuals that have challenges ranging from self-esteem concerns, anxiety, stress, depression, assertiveness, boundaries and spiritual concerns. I also enjoy working with couples who are struggling within their relationship and want some guidance to improve their skills, to communicate and resolve conflict effectively; which will often enhance the connection you feel with each other.

It is hard to reach out for support or to even consider reaching out when you are struggling. Perhaps you are experiencing a sense of grief, loss, or burnout leaving you feeling stuck and unsure about what the future holds? Perhaps you are feeling adrift and need someone to talk to as you figure out what to do next? Sometimes we find our past experiences interfere with the present and all of us face challenges that require extra support. Counselling can help you gain a better understanding of yourself, your relationships, and the changes you wish to implement to achieve further growth.

Are you stressed? Anxious? Are you often caught up in your painful past or worried about the uncertain future? You are reactive and take everything personally. You are irritated and restless. Disconnected and misunderstood. Empty and joyless. Self-criticism is your mantra. Happiness a virtual reality. It's hard to remember what matters to you or who you are. You are stuck. In. Your. Misery. I help people get unstuck. I help people improve their health and well-being, and overcome obstacles that are getting in the way of life. I provide practical tools to help you be present, open up, and do what matters.

Registered Psychologist, Paloma Scott is highly experienced in offering support to complex cases with children, youth, adults, and families who have a variety of difficulties, such as Trauma (PTSD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Specific Learning Disorder (SLD), Giftedness, Depression, Anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), etc.

My practices evolved over time but always followed through the line of trauma. I work with kids as young as four up until whatever age they want to continue therapy. I am fortunate enough to have a very formative experience in EMDR, IFS, IFIO, and Clinical Hypnosis to address the needs of my clients. As a psychologist, I believe that to have good mental health, the individual must be treated as the whole person. So, I integrate the mind and body into my practice to help my clients to overcome depression, anxiety, grief, stress, mood disorders, and PTSD. I also proudly offer NeurOptimal Neurofeedback for brain training.

Despite your struggles, you are your own expert. By collaborating through a strong therapeutic alliance and the simple act of slowing down, I put your uniqueness at the center of every session in order to strive towards your sense of a meaningful, balanced, healthy way of being. I direct my energy to supporting people as they grapple with the challenges in life both past and present, encouraging personal growth closer to their best self. Often these challenges are revealed as anxiety and depression, trauma, life transitions, family distress, relationship struggles and work-related stress.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, low mood? Are you feeling constantly on edge after a big life transition, motor vehicle accident, or other stressful/traumatic event? Currently, I offer individual therapy for teens and adults and I specialize in mood and stress disorders. I can provide sessions in English or in Turkish. My goal is to build a strong therapeutic relationship with you to help you overcome difficulties in your life that are getting in the way of having fulfilling careers, relationships, or overall life quality.

I'm a Registered Psychologist who is dedicated to helping you overcome stress, worry, and fear. If you have anxieties about your life and relationships, or about eating, food, and the way your body looks, as a therapist, I can help. You might be obsessed with thoughts that you can't control. To the outside world, you may appear to function well. But on the inside, you're in a constant state of anxiety and angst. You may be overwhelmed and terrified that you'll have another panic attack, gain weight, or that something horrible is about to happen.

I specialize in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing). I am a Certified EMDR Therapist & EMDR Consultant (EMDRIA approved). I help people heal from traumatic experiences and the effects that these painful events have - anxiety, depression, nightmares, stress, emotional exhaustion, being stuck. EMDR gives people relief from symptoms that they can't get from talk therapies.

Hair pulling and skin picking can be very challenging to manage independently - they are highly complex behaviours. Often these Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviours (BFRBs) result in shame and guilt. They can be isolating and worrisome. You may feel alone, but you are not. I specialize in treating BFRBs. I also regularly work with clients who have anxiety, obsessions and compulsions (OCD), impulsivity, and individuals who lack confidence (work, studies, relationships). As a Clinical Psychologist (22 years), my approach will help you to experience positive change in the short-term, and learn how to sustain this change in the long-term.
