Our team of experts is here to help you when you need it. No waiting, flexible scheduling, and individualized approaches.
Our approach to our clients is to use an integrated trauma informed approach, with an individualized treatment plan to meet your needs. Our work with clients is highly person-centered, and strengths based. We have both spent twenty years working with individuals, couples and families.

She also obtained a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Toronto in 2001, as well as having completed numerous post-graduate certifications over the last twenty years, specializing in the area of Child Behaviour/Family systems, Trauma and Attachment, and Emotion-focused Family and Couples Counselling.

Andrea is trained as an EMDR therapist (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and utilizes this modality with clients on a case by case basis. As well as being a highly skilled therapist, Andrea has also offered her services in Clinical Supervision for the last decade, using a non-judgemental, supportive approach rooted in attachment-oriented trauma work. Supervisees can expect to explore the link between theory and practice, as well as examine use of self, and how their own experiences and emotional lens shapes their work.
