Therapists in Niagara on the Lake, ON

Art therapy is an ideal way for individuals or groups to explore therapy and find healing and support. Therapy can be joyful and creative. My ideal client is open to discover positive and supportive creative and client-focused approaches. Whether you require talk, expressive (non-verbal), brief, long-term, individual or group art therapy, it is a realistic goal. Art-making can explore your stuck or painful feelings, alter any thoughts or behaviours affected by fear, abuse, uncertainty, trauma, grief, loss, diminished moral, or work-stress and anxiety. I look forward to discuss your treatment goals and explore our journey together.

I believe that each one of us is the sum of all the journeys we have taken and all the people we have met along the way. We navigate peaks and valleys, traveling up or downstream. At different junctures in our lives, we find ourselves in an ‘in-between’ not knowing which path to take. It is through my own journey and the ones I have taken with others that I have come to bear witness to the strength, courage, and wisdom we each have within us. In my work with individuals, couples, children and youth, I explore challenges, crisis, loss and struggle within the context of one’s interpersonal relationships.

I provide psychotherapy which is grounded on listening and understanding. There is much for me to hear before I get the full picture of what is going on in your life, and lots to discover for you and me together before the time comes for my expert advice. My main discovery of the last decade is that people can come to many therapists, for many times and yet not become ready ever to say openly what is the matter. It is why I know my clients need time to assume that I am really on their side. To figure out, bit by bit, what the possible advice or solution can be and then help you to do that we decide to do, I have my basic training in client-centered psychotherapy (“by Carl Rogers”), and I am a very, very orthodox Rogerian therapist. In addition, I have studied cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectic-behavioral therapy, music psychotherapy and non-directive child play psychotherapy. I will apply in your situation that which matches your particular needs. Also, I realized that some ideas of psychoanalysis, Adlerian psychotherapy, Existential therapy and Logotherapy can be helpful as well.
