Mary B Rodenhurst
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BA, BSW, MSW RSW
I am a Registered Social Worker with over forty years of experience working mostly in hospital based Mental Health facilitating individuals, couples and families to achieve well-being and their personal best
I am trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), informed Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and I am also well experienced in facilitating group therapy. I was a member of the teams that developed and implemented the Adult Anxiety and Affective Disorders Program and the Child and Adolescent Day Treatment Program
specializing in the treatment of anxiety, depression and psychosis at London Health Sciences Center.
In addition to working at London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC), Madame Vanier Children Services in London Ontario and McDonald House Community Out-patient Psychiatry General Hospital in Sault Ste. Marie Ontario,with both adult and adolescent populations, I maintained a private practice since 1990. Since retiring from LHSC in 2016, my private practice has thrived and is now full time.
At times life is a balancing act, and sometimes we need a little guidance and support to maintain that balance. An experienced therapist can help us move through difficult times, better understand our families/relationships, and find our inner sense of peace, well being and wisdom. Having a neutral, non-judgmental place to share difficulties,receive validation and support can be very beneficial. Collaboration to reach your goal is an essential element of our work together. The client brings open communication, a desire for change and I will listen unconditionally and without judgment. We will work together to help you hear your inner voice and nurture your resilience. Sessions are confidential and provide a safe and relaxed environment with your best interests as a priority.
My counselling approach begins with a thorough assessment. This will include gathering information about social supports, daily routines and self care. Once problems are clarified, a detailed plan for counselling is made. Family or close supports are welcome to join sessions as desired. Please note that all counselling sessions will include confidential discussions and note-taking. At the initial session we will discuss consent to services, protection of your personal information and exceptions to confidentiality.

Jennifer Ritchie Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CYW
*Accepting new clients for immediate booking* Life can be hard. Sometimes we find ourselves asking how we got here and sometimes it's hard to know where to start. We just know something doesn't feel right and these feelings can consume and overwhelm us. Perhaps you're experiencing some setbacks or challenges that you're finding difficult to cope with like anxiety, depression, loss, relationship issues, family conflict, or maybe you're just feeling really stuck. It's difficult to put into words how we feel when we don't understand what's really going on in our heads. If it feels like things are falling apart and you're feeling lost or overwhelmed or unable to cope alone, allow me to support you in finding your way back to feeling like you again.

Joel Mayer
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv
Specializing in anxiety and OCD! Do you feel stuck in your anxiety? Are intrusive thoughts or memories bothering you and getting in the way of your life? Perhaps your anxiety is also affecting your ability to be present and to function in the ways that you would like to in your relationships, work, or school life. Maybe you have coping strategies that used to work in the past but are no longer as effective for you now. If this is the case, do these issues then lead you to experiencing feelings of shame, wondering if there is something wrong with you, or questioning if things will ever get better?
You are not alone and change is possible! Anxious thoughts and feelings do not have to dictate your life and relationships. Together, we will work on learning skills to help you decrease your anxious feelings, get unstuck from your thoughts, develop more helpful coping strategies, and get back into the relationships and activities that matter to you.
My commitment is to come alongside you with compassion and care to offer direct, practical support that can make a difference now. I utilize a mindful, values-based approach to help you get back to meaningfully engaging in your life – whatever that looks like for you! I would be honored to work with you as you seek to live your life more fully.
