Female Therapists in Kanata, ON

What is my approach to helping? Just as the body requires nurturing and attention to keep it healthy, the mind also requires maintenance and consideration around how it can be used to create the life circumstances that you desire. I work with individuals and couples that have interest in gaining increased awareness about their ways of being in their lives in order to bring about alternative outcomes. I am a platform for clients to discuss concerns, clarify what would be helpful and strengthen resolve and understanding of personal resources to make a desired change in their lives.

Life transitions and new beginnings can be both exciting and overwhelming. Perhaps you are starting at a new school or job, beginning a new relationship, surviving a loss, or experiencing a major life event such as transitioning to university, becoming a parent, or working with a new diagnosis.
