Scope of Practice:
About My Practice:I am a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and a Certified Play Therapist (CPT) credentialed by the Canadian Association for Play Therapy (CAPT). At Polaris Counselling, I provide dedicated, evidence-based psychological support tailored to the unique developmental and clinical needs of individuals, children, and families. My practice emphasizes structured, trauma-informed interventions delivered at a pace that respects the safety and autonomy of each client.
Areas of Clinical Practice & Modalities:
– Certified Play Therapy & Pediatric Support: Utilizing my advanced training through CAPT, I provide specialized child-centered play therapy. This modality allows children to process emotional hurdles, navigate ADHD, and build emotional regulation skills through their natural language of play. I integrate neurofeedback brain training within this framework to provide structured, objective support for tracking developmental focus and neurodevelopmental differences.
– Trauma-Informed Therapy (EMDR): I offer structured trauma therapy utilizing specialized modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to safely guide individuals who are processing deep-rooted issues, past trauma, and pursuing self-growth.
– Family Reunification & Transition Guidance: I provide structured clinical guidance for families navigating high-conflict separations and life transitions. This work focuses on establishing safe communication boundaries, stabilizing family dynamics, and prioritizing the core well-being of the children involved.
Our Commitment:We are committed to maintaining the highest standard of ethical care, professional transparency, and clinical excellence. I welcome inquiries regarding my training benchmarks, office policies, or how these structured modalities can support your family’s therapeutic goals.
