Welcome! I know it can be difficult to take the first step in reaching out to a stranger for support with your self-care. I have been there too although my journey is not the same as yours. Our 50 minutes together will be your time to unzip and unpack your mental health suitcase in a safe, unpressured space. Together we can connect the dots from childhood to present day, if needed, while finding and integrating healthier tools for present day living.

背景

Hi! I am Kathy, a Registered Psychotherapist who truly believes in the healing power of presence and compassion within a therapeutic framework, as a means to support others on their life journey. My background spans 20 plus years first as an Assaulted Women &Childrens Counsellor and now as a Registered Psychotherapist working from a Psychodynamic base, intergrating various therapy modalities to meet the individual needs of my clients. I am informed in Trauma, Mindfulness, Somatic,IFS, and Polyvagal to name a few. As my education continues ongoing, I am always bringing new therapeutic approaches to meet the needs of my clients.

與我經歷治療的體驗

In my therapeutic care you will find that I am easy going, approachable and always encouraging you to move at your own pace.Once we become comfortable with each other and I have a better sense of you, I will offer modalities and therapeutic concepts that might best resonate with you and reinforce your healing journey. I will work collaboratively with you, offering alternatives for your thought processes while encouraging you to revisit and explore the concepts and thoughts that might no longer be working for you. At all times I will do my best to make you feel safe and in a trusting environment.
