Steve Rose

Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MA, BA, CGC (CCPC Global)
Using substances or addictive behaviours to cope with underlying issues, you get short-term relief at a long-term cost. As you lose control, your health and relationships may be affected. You may then begin to realize the substance or behaviour is the problem, masking as the solution. If you've tried to stop and keep finding yourself back where you started, it can be frustrating. Counselling can help remove mental barriers, allowing you to break free from ineffective coping strategies so you can gain a sense of control, clarity, confidence, and start living the life you want. I often hear people say they try to reach out, but they don't feel understood. They often feel judged, unheard, or feel the person trying to help them has a hidden agenda. My approach is highly person-centered, meaning I help clients create a plan that works for their unique situation. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to addiction recovery. It can be hard to reach out for support. Many people wonder, "will it work for me?" and "what if things never change?" In early recovery, there's a lot of uncertainty. Luckily, long-term change is quite common, with the right support. If you don't know where to start, reach out for a free phone consultation and I can help guide you through the process.

Jane Allen

Psychologist, Master Counselling, BSc. Eng, MBA
Many of my clients feel lost or stuck in their lives. They often feel troubled by their relationships, work situations, unmet dreams, and transitions into different stages of life. Our culture does not offer many forums for authentic exploration of life's challenges. My work supports you in exploring the underlying causes of such feelings as anxiety, depression, fear, emptiness, despair, resentment, anger. I offer a very non-judgmental environment where we can examine different life patterns and core beliefs which may be negatively affecting your quality of life. If you feel isolated in your challenges, I can offer perspectives and insights that will help you understand yourself more and discover that you are not alone. My goal is to provide hope, insight and new perspectives to my clients. I am an avid reader, researcher and learner and work to find a good match with each client and a suitable counselling approach. Working as a psychologist is a second career for me. I have extensive life experience and work experience in science, business and work teams.

Nora Taylor, MA, RP

Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology 1994
My own experience of life has informed my practice as has my appreciation of the spiritual aspects of life. Depth psychology has long been an interest of mine since first reading Carl Jung's work in 1990. My practice is deepened by an appreciation of Buddhism and more recently neuroscience which provide more expansive views on how to work with the difficulties faced by simply being human.

Mary Elizabeth Borkowski

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Often relationships in our lives cause us pain and difficulty, and sometimes the relationship we struggle with most is the one with ourselves. Psychoanalytically informed psychotherapy is an opportunity to acquaint yourself with the person you are, who you have been, and who you would like to become. Therapy is a unique relationship that allows you to slow down and examine your thoughts, feelings, fantasies, dreams, and fears with a person who is trained to listen and accompany you down some of your mind's more confusing paths.

MindfulWe Holistic Psychotherapy & Counselling Services

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
Therapy is not meant to last forever, it is a tool to serve you, and the only way to know if the tool worked for you is with successful completion of your goals. I describe myself as your human GPS, sitting in the passengers' seat while you sit in the drivers seat, you tell me where you want to go and I will get you there! Despite all the challenges you may have been through, I firmly believe that you are your own expert and you already have all your own answers. Sometimes challenging experiences have clouded access to this internal knowing. I assist and empower your true essence in order for you to make life affirming decisions that align with your values, and ultimately live a wholehearted life. We surpass focusing on the issue that brought you in to therapy, to making and reaching life goals. It takes a lot of courage to begin this journey inside yourself. Together, we can understand the root cause, nurture it back to vitality & feel the ripple effect on all parts of your life. I am also currently pursuing a PhD in Integrative Medicine, which gives me alternative healing practices to incorporate into your treatment if/as you wish. I breathe this work, it is my love and passion. It is my utmost pleasure and honor to work with you and help guide you to the wise inner wisdom that resides within every human, today!

Laura Farberman

Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW
Therapy is the journey of becoming free to be ourselves. Instead of becoming a better version of ourselves, we can connect to who we are at our core, without the coping mechanisms we unconsciously took on to survive. These ways of coping, often wired into our brain and nervous system, can show up differently for each person. For you, it might be perfectionism, procrastination, an inner critic, low self-esteem or anxiety, to name a few. My approach combines the best of practical psychology, science and grounded spiritual psychology. I make the roots of complex emotions, behaviours and addictions accessible and actionable so that you can achieve sustainable change and true transformation. I am trained in Compassionate Inquiry, a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté that reveals the patterns beneath how we present to the world amongst other psychotherapeutic modalities. Through Compassionate Inquiry you begin to recognize the unconscious patterns, which show up as triggers, traumas and ways of coping and suppressing emotions, and how to become free from them. I support clients to reconnect with their bodies, via somatic experience. Benefits include, relief of symptoms of chronic pain, anxiety, depression and addiction. Soulful Therapy is a compassionate and non-judgmental approach to psychotherapy and an effective way to begin down the path of introspection. It is a place to process what’s going on in your present, make sense of your past, or explore factors that may guide choices to cultivate a life that feels self-compassionate, vibrant, and authentic above all else.

Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma. No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. Gottman (couples) and Post Induction Therapy training (relational/developmental trauma) I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best. If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit! SE focuses on regulating your nervous system. With SE work trauma responses are completed and energy is released back into the system and with this the resolution and disappearance of physical complaints, including headaches, digestive problems, and pain syndromes can be resolved, and emotional regulation can be restored. I will teach you how to work with your stress response - the body's innate alarm system in response to a perceived danger, also called the "Fight or Flight" response. It is highly adaptive to danger and human survival when threats are physical, but less so when threats are psychological, or imaginary, among other somatic and relational skills. I have been trained under Dr Abi Blakeslee part of Dr Peter A Levine's legacy group out of California for Somatic Experiencing and the late great Dr Bud Feder the author of Beyond the Hot Seat was on my dissertation committee overseeing a phenomenological study of the effectiveness of a gestalt therapy group I created to reduce stress in working informal caregivers of the elderly. I named the group process Stressed WOW (We Overloaded with Work). Gestalt therapy is an extremely complex psychotherapy, too complex to describe in this short space. The power of its effectiveness can only be experienced. Most present day therapies have stolen bits and pieces of its praxis. Get the whole again with a holistic, here and now, experiential therapy. I am here for you... I've got your six!
