Emotionally Focused Therapists in Woodstock, ON

I believe that you are the author of your own story. My goal is to provide a warm, safe, and non-judgemental space within which you can share your concerns and hopes; allowing you to grow, explore and understand your emotions and how they impact you and your relationships. I am committed to understanding your unique needs, strengths, and goals. I work with people experiencing anxiety, depression and the impacts of trauma. I support couples and individuals to overcome relationship challenges and deepen their connections to each other.

Relationships are everything! My approach focuses on things that impact your personal relationships. The health of our relationships impacts every aspect of our daily functioning. If relationships with friends, family or significant others are impacting how you feel about yourself and the world then my services may be for you.

Welcome! My name is Erin, and I am a therapist at Counselling & Co. I have dedicated much of my life to supporting individuals and families as they journey through the trials life can pose. When we are strengthened and supported in counselling, we are better able to cope with life transitions, traumas, and support ourselves as we support others. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I aim to use my knowledge and experience to help with life challenges in a way that is meaningful and catered for you.

I believe relationships and connections are foundational to our mental health and well-being. When we feel connected to others we are better able to explore, heal, and adapt. My goal is to support people at any age with learning new skills, exploring emotions, and sharing experiences. When working with me you can expect an open, warm, and non-judgmental perspective.

Are you seeking an experienced couple counselor, trauma or faith-based therapist?

It is our hope for you to be able to walk along your path confidently and successfully. However, we realize that sometimes in order to journey well on that path we require support. Like a well along the path offering sustenance and rejuvenation, health and wellness services can offer a place to process, learn and grow, so that you can once again journey well. We work to create positive change and enhance physical and mental well-being through genuine connection.

I believe that the relationship between a counsellor and a client is deeply personal and collaborative so finding the ‘right-fit’ is pivotal to successful therapy; a strong therapeutic relationship is essential in creating an environment that fosters change and personal growth. I practice with a variety of clinical skills to support extensive variety of client issues; however, I am passionate in supporting my clients in areas of stress, grief, anxiety and depression. I use techniques from various therapeutic modalities, including cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy, and solution-focused therapy.

My focus of my practice is that of relationship counselling. Relationship to self, others and the world is extremely important for healthy living. When something gets in the way of good relationship then sometimes it is really important to have a third parties insight into what might be going wrong and how to make changes to overcome what might be standing in the way. I see children, teens, individuals, couples, and families. We offer: anger management, domestic violence, relapse prevention, weight loss, anxiety, depression, conflict resolution, trauma resolution and Christian counselling programs.

Or, are you wanting support either individually or with your partner so that you can work towards a healthier relationship?

We are all on a journey, our own journey. Sometimes that journey has bumps, twists, turns, and roadblocks that are super tough.

Therapy shouldn't feel like a chore. While it might sometimes be hard to hear what is discussed in therapy, overall you should leave feeling like you've gained something useful or even transformative. Over time, you should feel you are getting stronger, more resilient and have shed layers of fear and anxiety. Of course this process can be overwhelming at times and you might not always progress on the timeframe that you thought you would, but when therapy goes well, you should feel more settled and more clear about your life. You should gain understanding about yourself and others and have a renewed sense of purpose and passion
