MISSION
Catalyst Counselling is founded on the belief that our minds, like our bodies, have a drive to heal. However, similar to how an infected wound doesn't heal well, psychological issues that aren't addressed can cause symptoms of poor mental health. We may not have the best ways to help the healing process along, may be acting in ways that interfere with recovery, or may have difficulty seeing obstacles that leave us feeling stuck. You may also be seeking life change more broadly, but are having difficulty navigating your way there. This is where therapy comes in.
Therapy can be a catalyst for change – a process that facilitates healing and progress toward your goals. As a psychologist, my role is to collaborate with you as you work toward this healing and change.

What Is a First Session Like?
Therapy is based in a therapist-client relationship, so a good fit is important. In a first session, you will be able to get a feel for that fit and discuss the concerns that are bringing you to therapy. You may have concerns and doubts about therapy itself! I will focus on getting to know you and your lived experience so I can assess how best to help. Prioritizing concerns, setting goals, and discussing the direction of treatment takes place.
