Coaching is future oriented and and you work in partnership with your therapist or coach to achieve your goals.

Counselling typically offers a short-term, focused approach toward solving concerns and challenges.

Psychotherapy is often longer in duration, more in-depth and often focuses on the past.

Psychological services, directed toward the maintenance and enhancement of physical, intellectual, emotional, social and interpersonal functioning of individuals and couples can only be provided by a regulated member of the College of Psychologists of Ontario.

All of these interventions involve confidential conversations within a mutually respectful professional relationship and are designed to provide emotional insight, personal growth, increased coping, improved communication skills and happier relationships.

There are multiple benefits such as insight, understanding, improved interpersonal relationships, increased problem solving and decision-making skills, a more balanced lifestyle, higher self-confidence, enhanced physical, intellectual, emotional and social well-being and the encouragement to achieve the life you desire.

Everyone encounters challenges throughout their lives. It’s common to feel overwhelmed at times and it can be a great advantage to have someone to discuss your concerns with, clarify your next steps and create a more fulfilling life. Susan’s clients include entrepreneurs, investment bankers, artists, students, engineers, music producers, administrators, entertainers, lawyers, doctors, therapists, scientists, homemakers, athletes, CEOs, salespeople, actors, and many others, from all walks of life.

In the first session, you will have an opportunity to see what the nature of your sessions will be like by discussing what you’d like to work on and the steps that might be taken to reach your goals. The most significant factor in the counselling or psychotherapy process is the strength of the relationship between the client and the therapist. In order for the process to work, it’s essential that you feel a positive connection with the therapist and perceive their nature as being nonjudgmental, trustworthy, competent and warm.

Each session is 50 minutes long.

Unfortunately, counselling services are not covered under OHIP.

The per session fee is set within industry standards at $230. This fee applies to both 50-minute individual sessions and 50-minute couples counselling and marriage therapy sessions.
