Anna Skomorovskaia (Sky)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
As a psychotherapist, I chose to work with eating disorders because I recognize it has the profound impact on an individual's mental health and well-being. Trauma can cause a range of emotional and psychological symptoms, including eating disorders. Individuals who have experienced trauma may develop an unhealthy relationship with food as a way of coping with their emotions or regaining a sense of control. I believe that by addressing the underlying trauma, individuals can begin to heal and develop a more positive relationship with their body and food. Through therapy, I work collaboratively with my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings about their eating disorder and develop new coping strategies to manage their symptoms. I am committed to providing a safe and supportive space where my clients can feel heard and understood, and I am dedicated to helping them on their path towards healing and recovery.

Barbara Freedman
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
Emotional Eating & Weight Loss Do you want to lose weight, tone up, and increase your muscle mass, along with learning how to manage your emotional eating? Not knowing how to cope with our feelings we often do something that feels good like having a delicious snack. Food provides a source of soothing, comforting, nurturing, and distraction from whatever problem exists. So, it serves as an escape . As a counsellor I can help you deal with these issues as opposed to avoiding them.
As we become flooded with neurotransmitters, due to eating down our feelings, a sense of euphoria results and craving for more is stimulated, along with our need to continue to maintain those unhealthy habits. In addition to teaching clients the HALT method for overcoming emotional eating, as a counsellor who is well versed in fitness, and healthy eating, I would be pleased to guide and support you in developing your own personal plan to achieve your weight loss and fitness goals.

Barrie is a city on Kempenfelt Bay of Lake Simcoe north of Toronto that has become one of Ontario's fastest-growing communities as families and professionals seek more affordable housing within commuting distance of the city, and the resulting rapid growth has created both rising demand for therapy and the particular challenges of a community still building its social infrastructure. Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre provides hospital-based mental health services, and Georgian College contributes to the local supply of trained counsellors through its health and wellness programs. The proximity to Muskoka cottage country and year-round outdoor recreation options give the city a quality-of-life appeal, though cold winters and long commutes to Toronto are among the stressors residents bring to therapy. Common therapy concerns include commuter stress, relocation and transition challenges, seasonal affective disorder, and the pressures of family life in a rapidly changing community.
