MC, Registered Provisional Psychologist

***Ray is accepting new clients!***

Anyone who takes a step towards counselling is making a brave decision to better understand themselves and gain some tools for improving their emotional well-being, confidence, self esteem, and much more. Just like visiting your doctor for your physical health, taking care of your mental and emotional health is vital. Making this choice is a testament to your strength and wisdom, and I'm here to provide the support and guidance you need on this meaningful journey.

 

My purpose is to help individuals navigate the complex terrain of their emotions, thoughts, and relationships. With a deep commitment to evidence-based therapeutic approaches, I provide a safe and empathetic space for clients to explore their inner worlds and foster positive change. I am deeply dedicated to your mental wellbeing and am excited to walk alongside you on your path toward emotional healing and personal growth.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in (but not limited to) a blend of Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Psychodynamic Therapy. These methods allow us to explore and understand the underlying emotions, patterns, and beliefs that may be influencing your thoughts, behaviours, and relationships.

But I don't stop there; recognizing the profound impact of trauma on one's life, I am committed to providing trauma-informed care. As such, I believe in tailoring therapy to your unique needs, to ensure I provide a safe and supportive environment for healing. That's why I also integrate techniques from Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness to ensure a holistic approach to your mental and emotional well-being.

Therapy is a collective journey, and my role is to support and guide you along the way.  In our sessions, we will work together to:

• Explore and understand your emotions and thought patterns
• Identify and challenge unhelpful behaviours and beliefs
• Resolve unaddressed pain and trauma from the past
• Cultivate mindfulness and self-compassion
• Develop practical strategies to overcome challenges
• Encourage personal growth and self-discovery
