York Region Family Counselling is the perfect starting point to begin your journey or continue to learn and grow. I provide social work services, psychotherapy and coaching focused on results, resiliency and meeting your personal goals. I offer evening and weekend counselling to accommodate the busy schedules of the modern family.
Services
Services begin with an individual clinical assessment and formulation of your unique plan and goals. Since every person, family and couple are different I use a variety of evidence based techniques to tailor a therapeutic plan for your specific needs.
I specialize in life transitions, parenting challenges, eating disorders, trauma recovery, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and couple/family conflicts. I use a combination of cognitive behavioural based therapies, interpersonal therapy, play based and attachment focused therapies that are tailored to your specific need.
Virtual Counselling sessions are now available! Please contact me. No software download is required. A private link is shared with you ahead of the session. All browsers and most smart phones are supported. It is a face-to-face video conference platform that allows for more flexibility in your schedule and care. Email today for an appointment.
About
Amy Harrison MSW, RSW, PMH-C
I am a masters level Mental Health therapist who has worked with individuals and groups for more than 15 years. I am passionate about helping people achieve their greatest potential through overcoming their inner self-critic and move through difficult life circumstances with strength and resiliency. I believe strongly in the human need for support and connection in order to grow and thrive. My therapeutic approach is evidence-based, strengths-focused and client centered.
I began my career working in the downtown east communities of Vancouver and Toronto. Over the years I have spent my professional time advocating for necessary and vital services for families in financial hardship, those facing chronic illness, and individuals with mental health and intellectual disabilities. For the past five years I have worked in a community health care clinic planning and providing treatment for children, youth and adults from pregnancy to end of life.
As a mother of four, I have both personal and professional knowledge of the many challenges of creating and caring for a family. I’ve received training in perinatal mental health and certification from Postpartum Support International (PMH-C). If you are looking for support and are planning your family, pregnant, or adjusting to life after birth please email to schedule a session.
