Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
I find clients are looking to understand themselves, to find reasons they struggle the way they do, and discover how they got where they are. We've all been influenced by our experiences, whether good or bad. Good healthy experiences give us the tools and confidence to navigate life, but what happens when our experiences have been far from good? A child experiencing abuse, trauma, loss, and neglect believes they deserve it or it's their fault, not knowing the adults in their lives are responsible to help them feel secure and confident. Negative childhood experiences often throw individuals into feeling too much responsibility, becoming people pleasers, carrying much shame and guilt, feeling like a burden, social awkwardness, experiencing cognitive distortions, depression, addictions, loss of identity, anxiety and panic disorders, inter-relational problems, lack of confidence, and a lack of boundaries. Clients need to know they're not to blame and there's hope to experience a healthier and purposeful life, the life they were meant to have. Clients need to know they belong, they matter and are not a mistake. If you want to find freedom, purpose, contentment, and healing schedule a 30 minute free consultation to explore whether we'd be a good fit to journey together to a better you.

I know life does not always work out as planned. When these situations arise, you need an unbiased, non-judgemental, trained professional to help you navigate life challenges. At my practice, I offer a unique blend of counselling and coaching strategies, integrating evidence-based therapies like CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), RECBT (Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy), Hypnotherapy, and EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) into my sessions, mainly specializing in individual and couples counselling. This holistic approach allows me to address mental health challenges, personal growth, and relationship dynamics comprehensively.
I facilitate coaching strategies by leveraging strengths-based approaches and motivational techniques to empower clients to achieve their desired outcomes. I simplify goal-setting, provide accountability, and offer practical strategies to navigate obstacles and maximize potential of my clients.
Clients often commend my empathetic and collaborative approach, emphasizing the transformative impact of our work together. They appreciate the practical tools and insights gained, empowering them to navigate life's complexities with resilience and clarity.
I encourage you to reach out if you seek practical support to overcome challenges, enhance relationships, and achieve personal goals.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA., RP.

The action you have made to seek help is not an easy one, rather it demonstrates great strength, commitment, and resiliency. The effects of trauma can leave us feeling vulnerable and unsafe long after the event itself. So often people can be left feeling hopeless, disconnected, and ashamed. Healing these wounds are essential to developing a strong sense of self, positive self view, and safety within relationships. I work from a trauma-informed perspective and pull from approaches that will allow us to build an understanding of the protective strategies formed to survive the emotional and mental impact of the trauma and cultivate self-acceptance and trust with ourselves and others. I hope to create a space where you feel valued, seen, and safe as I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important part of the healing process.
Primarily, I work with those who have experienced recent and historical trauma, such as attachment trauma and abuse/assault. Additionally, I work with clients seeking support for emotional distress (e.g., reactivity, difficulties regulating, depression, anxiety), interpersonal relationships (e.g., relationship patterns, vulnerability issues), self-esteem issues, and personality disorders, among other areas as well. My practice is inclusive, as I work with diverse problems, histories and cultural identities, and ensure the approaches used are catered to each unique individual. My hope is to work together to heal old wounds and painful current experiences, and guide you through your journey towards a healthier life and empower you to become your most authentic self.

Connection and sexual expression are key to our existence as humans.

Find your voice in relationships and freedom in sexual expression. Create the life that you want.
