Now accepting new clients both online and in our Cobourg office location. Within yourself, there is a part of you that knows life can be better, and that is how we begin, with that little spark of hope. I’m Lori and my therapy clinic is dedicated to providing support for depression, anxiety, ADHD, addictions, life transitions and emotional eating. One of our top priorities is creating a therapeutic environment that provides acceptance, comfort and a sense of security, because we get how hard it can be to finally relax enough to even find your voice, let alone speak your truth.

Often in life you face barriers and challenges that can leave you feeling overwhelmed, uninspired, anxious or stressed. Whether you are in need of support to help you work through specific challenges, or you want to explore your values, goals, and inner truth to live a more fulfilling life in general, I am here to help. I understand first-hand the positive impact that counselling can have, and I'm passionate about providing others with the same opportunities for wellness that have made such a difference for me in my life.

You are an older teen, an adult, a man or woman, a family or couple interested in Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Learning Disability (LD), Executive functioning/ADHD, and accompanying depression, anxiety, and psycho-social issues. You are looking for Assessment and Diagnosis to help you access appropriate treatment or accommodations at school or at work and to make appropriate life plans or changes in your life. Social skills, friendships/relationships and communication may be an issue and you would like to understand your issues and learn how to change your thinking and have more successful behavior in these areas.

I utilize a person-centred approach to support individuals in navigating anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, and other emotional challenges. My goal is to foster well-being and healing within a safe, comfortable environment. By building a collaborative working relationship, I prioritize the client’s voice and perspectives, recognizing their inherent resources and capacity for change. I also support individuals diagnosed with Adult ADHD.

Alma McNairn is a registered Social Worker with over 25 years of experience within the field of mental health. She holds a Master Degree of Social Work from University of Windsor, as well as an undergraduate degree in Social Development Studies from University of Waterloo. Often in life we are faced with many transitions and challenges that can impact our daily functioning and leaving us feeling overwhelmed and dysregulated. My approach will assist children, youth and parents to learn emotional regulation skills and strategies to deal with these challenges and life events.

Everyone is worthy of feeling loved, confident, happy and being the best version of themselves. My approach to therapy acknowledges the individuality of each client's perspective. My goal is to empower you and encourage you to grow, adapt, and thrive by validating your experiences, providing support and tools to navigate challenges and create healthier relationships with yourself and with others. Whether you're beginning your therapeutic journey for the first time or feeling like it is time to try something new, together, we will work towards understanding triggers, developing coping mechanisms, and fostering resilience.

It can be hard to reach out for help, but it's worth it. I know, I've been there myself. This journey you're on, each step you take is one that is moving you closer towards personal development, healing and more balance within your life. I'm here to walk with you, listen to you, and support you with the moments, choices, and struggles along the way.

I offer a casual, inclusive space for teens and adults who are finding it difficult to navigate through the challenges of life. In a safe and judgement-free environment, we can work together to identify obstacles that are preventing you from moving forward. We can uncover the patterns that fuel your unwanted behaviour, and begin to build a foundation for resilience and growth. As a psychotherapist, it is my role to empower my clients to see their potential for growth and to construct a reasonable and attainable path through working together to set goals.

What we think of ourselves reflects our emotional pain, triumph, or trauma. When we have heart problems, we see a cardiologist, when have back pain, we see a doctor, but who do we see when our heart hurts? Who do we see when we have a hard time looking at ourselves in the mirror because of our relationship with ourselves? Showing up for everyone else but not yourself? Guess what beautiful soul? It's time to reclaim your life. Let's connect and rewire the unhelpful thinking patterns that lead to depression, anxiety and feelings of worthlessness. When was the last time you smiled so much it hurt?

Accepting new clients. I would like to applaud your courage in reaching out and seeking professional support in your journey. You are worthy of an astonishing and meaningful life. I know you have been already working hard in your quest to find this path. Often, we reach out to the people we care about and yet we feel that they are biased and have judgements that do not support our own unique path. This is where a non-judgmental and supportive professional can help. I do see you as the expert on your journey. I honour that you have travelled a difficult trail at times and right now you need a compassionate listener.

We are here to provide you with a warm and safe environment where you and your loved ones can be heard. Together, we can tackle a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), disordered eating disorders, addiction, and relationship problems, among others.

Welcome! My name is Catherine and I am excited to walk with you on your healing journey. Before training as a therapist, I worked in Autism Services. I also have experience in mental health, and substance use. This background helps me to understand the unique needs and cultures of a diverse range of people including those in the neurodiverse community. My approach is culturally sensitive, and humanistic, which means that I believe that you are the expert of your life and experiences. I am here to hear your struggles and your story, to offer support while you explore your truth and change old habits and patterns as needed.

My therapeutic process incorporates the importance of the mind-body connection, and self-care into treatment. I use an integrative approach, combining aspects of the Biopsychosocial model, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Mindfulness, and Client-Centered Therapy to work with individuals, families, and youth. I work collaboratively with clients to explore barriers in their lives, and create goals that allow clients to live more authentic and engaged lives. Ultimately, the aim of the therapeutic journey is to enhance the clients’ self-awareness and relationship with themselves and those around them.

She:kon/Hello! My name is Jenny Patterson and I am the founder of Bear in Mind Healing, a private practice based in Cobourg, Ontario. I believe that Mother Earth is a garden and we are the flowers (her children) and that part of my purpose is to help those flowers grow. One of the reasons why I love being a social worker and what drives me to do this work is my own lived experiences. What I find beautiful is being able to walk with folks on their healing journey for just a little while; creating that safe, nurturing space and connection.

My belief of therapy is that you are in the driver’s seat and I am the passenger along for the ride. In some cases, I may need to assist with driving the car, but you are in control of the journey. This is a space where we get to work together to achieve your goals in ways that are beneficial and helpful for you. I have worked with clients aged 10+ who are managing anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief. I also tend to have an eclectic approach to therapy, and I individualize your therapeutic experience based on your current needs these include CBT, DBT, trauma-focused, and person-centred.

As humans we want to know we have a purpose, strengths, love and relationships. When these ideas are shaken up it can be challenging to move forward. Working with me as your Therapist can renew your sense of meeting your own needs. Feeling safe, and supported is a fundamental need and if you aren’t feeling that I can help bring that in to your life. You don’t need to know what help you need to visit me; we can find and explore that together.

Taking a collaborative approach to therapy, I will meet you where you are and work with you to create a strong therapeutic relationship. I truly believe that you are the expert in your own healing; I act as a toolbox for you to build and grow from. As no two individuals are the same, I tailor methods to acknowledge each individual’s uniqueness. I believe that the catalyst for change often lies in the environment therefore I am passionate about providing a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space to establish a strong therapeutic relationship and foster self-discovery.
