Welcome! My name is Vanessa (She/Her) and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), currently completing the practicum portion of my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology degree through Yorkville University. I am qualified to practice under the clinical supervision of an approved practicum supervisor.
I understand that reaching out for help can be quite nerve-wracking. That’s why it is so important to find a therapist who is the right fit for your mental health needs. I aim to build a safe, non-judgmental, and solid foundation that helps you trust in me and the process that we will navigate together.
I am especially interested in working in areas pertaining to trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. I appreciate an eclectic approach to therapy; this means I like to incorporate elements from various therapeutic modalities I believe will be of benefit to you, like narrative, CBT, and solution-focused approaches. By incorporating a client-centred approach, I recognize the inherent potential that exists within each client and the importance of tailoring services to your individual needs.
