Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy (often referred to as “talk therapy”) is therapy to help individuals currently experiencing emotional and/or behavioural challenges. This form of therapy focuses on helping an individual improve and maintain their mental health and well-being. Psychotherapy often provides treatment for diagnosable mental health issues. The client and therapist work together to positively influence a client’s thoughts, feelings, behaviour and social functioning when these areas are negatively affecting their relationships and quality of life.

In person sessions are located in Kanata at Suite 216 - 430 Hazeldean Road

Equine and Animal Assisted Therapy

Equine and animal assisted psychotherapy incorporates the presence and interaction of animals into the therapeutic process under the guidance of a trained psychotherapist. Sessions may involve horses and/or other therapy animals as part of experiential, body-based, and relational therapeutic work.

Unlike horseback riding lessons, the focus is not on learning riding skills or animal training. Instead, sessions are designed to explore emotional patterns, nervous system responses, boundaries, communication, attachment, self-trust, and connection in real time.
