PSYCHOTHERAPY can be your path to healing, building resilience, and personal growth

- Together we set a new trajectory for your life.
- I draw from science, psychology & therapeutic arts.
- We work on what you are most concerned about: unexpected or chosen life transitions, adversities, major losses, trauma recovery, gender identity/expression, sexuality, intimate partner relationship dynamics, parenting, pre/post natal adjustment, coping with distress, major losses/grief, intrusive thoughts, managing anxiety, overcoming phobias, low mood, emotional turmoil, balance, resilience.

Treatment begins with an assessment of your past lived experiences, current emotional needs & the changes you desire.
After the initial appointment, I present a plan & estimate of time needed to work on the concerns you bring.

I provide trauma and attachment informed treatment from an anti-oppressive framework, and wholistic approach. I guide you to find balance in every life sphere, so you can function optimally, and live with purpose and meaning.

WE CREATE SAFETY IN THE SESSIONS TO:
- befriend overwhelming emotions
- process complex experiences
- reset your nervous system
- reconnect with shut down brain networks
- tap into your own inner wisdom
- cultivate healthy, meaningful connections (Including your relationship with yourself)

(She/Her/Hers) BA Honours Psych, MSW, RSW #778554

ABOUT RENATE

  • Registered Social Worker with OCSWSSW Ontario College of Social Workers & Social Service Workers RSW# 778554
  • Master of Social Work (Wilfrid Laurier University, 1993)
  • Bachelor of Psychology, Honours (University of Winnipeg, 1991)
  • Member of the OASW Ontario Association of Social Workers

I have over 30 years experience serving clients throughout the lifespan. While I am now focusing my practice on individual therapy with adults 18+, my previous work facilitating therapy groups as well as family and couple therapy in a variety of mental health organizations, have built my skill set.

Psychotherapy continues to evolve as neuroscience and psychology are better understood. I have steadily added to my training in new evidence-based treatment approaches. Treatment is tailored, to your situation and concerns. I may draw from any and all of the modalities as needed. One approach does not fit all, and most approaches have valuable offerings.

The list below are specialized intensive trainings taken since my master’s degree. It is not an inclusive list of modalities I work from EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) PE (Prolonged Exposure) DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy) CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) Narrative Power & Control Family Systems
