Find a Therapist in Renfrew, Ontario.

As an eclectic therapist I offer assistance that supports learning of new ways of thinking that gets reinforced through experimental behaviour that is rich in meaning to clients. This cognitive behavioural therapy is woven within a humanistic, culturally sensitive frame. Some of the learning includes sharing simple techniques that can gently and safely regulate emotions and the inhibit the sympathetic nervous system to reduce overwhelm and dial down anxiety. With self-applied acupressure, sensory integration techniques, hypnosis and powerful EMDR interventions, many clients are better able to cope with their lives and begin to imagine and go on to build a fulfilling future.
