Valley Connections Counselling is an established Psychotherapy practice in Burlington. We began as a solo practitioner nearly 10 years ago in Hamilton, and we have grown to a team of a dozen Registered Psychotherapists and Child Life Specialists, offering services in person and virtually. Our services are often covered by extended health insurance plans.

Adults finding ADHD symptoms are impairing their personal relationships and/or professional role may need new coping strategies. Compassion and curiosity guide my support of young adults (& teens 15 or older) with ADHD, whose impulsivity or poor organizational skills often burdens them with guilt and low self-esteem. If a mood disorder or anxiety is interfering with thriving in your workplace role, together we will develop self-soothing practices for your emotional regulation and occupational success. To nurture clients' bounce-back from trauma or help couples stuck in conflict, I draw upon my clinical training and lived experience.

It's common to feel overwhelmed when you are going through a challenging time. But you don’t have to tackle it alone! Through individual and couples psychotherapy, I provide a non-judgemental, warm and supportive space for you to explore and untangle your thoughts and feelings. Depending on your goals therapy can also provide guidance and teach you life-long skills, such as better communication in your relationships or tools for personal mental wellness.

Sometimes the challenges life brings can seem intolerable, leaving you feeling stuck, unable to cope and with a sense that things are falling apart. Perhaps you're seeking greater fulfillment & tired of feeling alone, misunderstood and that no one else could possibly understand you. Hi, my name is Amun (she/her), and I’d be happy to support you whether it be to regulate intense emotions, gain clarity or find balance. My hope is through curiosity, we can arrive at a greater understanding of how you arrived here and gently learn to meet yourself with compassion.

I am a person centred, trauma informed, culturally sensitive psychotherapist who also worked for over 25 years as a registered nurse supporting individuals and families. I currently have the privilege of helping individuals facing anxiety, low mood, stress, burnout, grief, relationship issues, and difficulties navigating life transitions. I also work with couples who are seeking to overcome their challenges and strengthen their relationships. I am also passionate in supporting parents of young children, parents of teens and emerging adults and parents who find themselves experiencing estrangement with their adult children.

Our struggles with life and mental health often make us forget how to offer compassion and kindness to ourselves. While we "demonize" our body's response to seemingly easy "routine" functions, therapy can help us understand & recognize how our experiences have shaped our survival strategies and ways of being. My practice is grounded in my work in community-based mental health programs, as well as lived experience of systemic issues. I draw on EMDR, internal family systems, somatic and anti-oppressive approaches, based on the individual/couple's needs. I have specialized training in working with trauma, abuse and relationships.

Whether individual, children, couple or family, we never turn away a client that genuinely needs assistance, our aim is for anyone who needs counselling receives it. Our team of culturally diverse experienced Psychotherapists will listen, hear you, and serve you, virtually or in person. We specialize in various types of traumas, acute, complex, developmental, PTSD, and depression, anxiety, marriage, relationship challenges, co-parenting, behavioral issues, family reunification, sexual abuse, domestic violence, borderline personality disorder, employment issues, racial injustice, etc. Call for a free 15-minute consultation.

Do you feel stuck in struggling with your unprocessed feelings, repeating the same patterns and not being able to move forward? Or maybe you feel helpless as your family is suffering through a crisis or an ongoing challenge. Coping with anxiety, depression, conflict in relationships or past trauma can make you feel resigned to a state of survival. Specializing in trauma, couples counselling, and children’s mental health I can help you reduce stress and conflict and find new meaning in your life and relationships. I also lead a team of diverse therapists and social workers and together we can cater to the needs of the whole family.

Engaging in psychotherapy is a brave step towards reconciling with one's past, making amends with others, and finding peace with oneself. It's a unique relationship that lays the foundation for healing all other relationships. Psychotherapy, in its core, is a spiritual journey—a pilgrimage into the self. Just as a pilgrim walks from temple to temple, seeking enlightenment, an individual's therapeutic journey may involve multiple therapists. I might be your current one, but perhaps not your first nor your last. Each leg of this journey, with each therapist, requires courage and a faith that transformation is attainable.

Clarity is my hope for each person I see, whether we use Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy, Narrative approaches, EMDR, Mindfulness, yoga, polyvagal theory, or creative arts expression. Regardless if your struggle is with depression, anxiety, an eating disorder, or trauma, clarity means a better awareness and understanding of yourself in the current situation. Knowing yourself allows you to make choices best for you, consciously. It can be challenging to unravel and understand all of the often conflicting messages we hear and give ourselves, but it is crucial. This is the work I will support and guide you in.

Truth be told, all of us go through many story lines and create our own unique narratives as we go about our daily lives. We are the authors of our lives. And in therapy, I truly respect that. You will see in our sessions, as you and I work together to build a therapeutic relationship, I will make every effort to help you make sense of your unique experiences and support you on your journey. I have extensively worked with adolescents, adults, and seniors.

Are you struggling to find your happiness? Are you struggling with racing thoughts, never-ending stress, or low mood that is impacting your ability to engage in life? Are relationships unfulfilling and strained? Are you finally ready to find your inner strength and take control over your emotions and behaviours? We are so excited to help.

Are your symptoms of anxiety and trauma from the past coming up in your relationships? You might find yourself falling into the same patterns when you try to work through them on your own. That's why my practice involves guiding individuals and couples as they learn to navigate their triggers and emotions using coping skills. Whether it's managing anger, overcoming depression, challenging phobias, or reducing stress, my skills-based approach is centred on empowering clients to take control of their own well-being. Let's get you equipped with the tools you need to get started on your therapeutic journey!

As a dedicated and empathetic therapist, I am passionate about providing a safe and supportive environment for individuals of all ages to explore their emotions, overcome challenges, and foster meaningful relationships.

Life can be difficult, unpredictable, and very challenging at times, there is no denying this. However, you don't have to go through it alone.

I utilize Internal Family Systems (IFS), an innovative and transformative therapeutic model for emotional healing of eating disorders, addiction, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.

I have assisted many couples and families in improving their relationships with one another, providing them with the ability to communicate, respect and understand each other better using Collaborative Problem Solving and Emotion-focussed therapy.

Our mission at Exalted Mind & Wellness is to support individuals in providing psychological, emotional/mental care to heal and improve your life.
