Emily Burnett

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

 

I specialize in working with young children with complex needs and have been supporting families for nearly 15 years in both community and clinical settings. I am currently a candidate in the Canadian Institute for Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy program and have a small practice under supervision. I have a comprehensive approach to therapy and believe the therapeutic relationship with a child is the most important piece for our success together. I use approaches based in attachment theory, mindfulness, psychoanalysis and body-based regulation. I work alongside parents to help them become the most reliable co-regulator for their child.  I am a Certified Children's Yoga Teacher and have extensive experience in both Early Intervention and parent consultation in the Autism community.

Manuelle Ethier, MSW., RSW

therapist

registered social work (RSW)

Certified in Brainspotting

 

As a therapist, my role is to empathically guide and empower my clients to explore their innate capabilities. I strive to create a therapeutic environment that is founded on empathy, acceptance, safety, and mutual respect with each of my clients.

My approach is to bring warmth and empathy to clinical care while using a holistic and person-centered approach.  It is important to me to focus on the total well-being of the individual with whom I work with. I strive to help you strengthen healthy coping skills and/or teach you new strategies that better support you now in your current situation.

Services are offered in French and English. I offer a free 15 minute consultation. Let's talk about how I can help you along your path to live a fulfilling, authentic and aligned life.

  • I have been working as a social worker at CHEO for over 18 years supporting individuals, couples, parents, families, youth and children with acute and chronic illnesses, new diagnosis, relationship issues and traumatic events. I have Master's degree in Social Work (MSW) and a dual Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Gerontology. I am a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW). I am insured and bonded, and a member of the Ontario Association of Social Workers (OASW) as well as a member of the Brainspotting Canada Association.

Catherine Reid

Registered social worker

 

I have been a Social Worker for over 29 years with a wealth of experience with children and families.  My particular focus is conducting court ordered, section 30, Private Parenting Plan Assessments (formerly known as custody and access assessments).  I am devoted to conducting thorough, balanced, and unbiased assessments to assist you in achieving a dignified resolution, in a healthy and focused state, and to consider your children's needs first and foremost.  I promise to be there for you through your journey in negotiating Decision-Making responsibilities and Parenting Time with your ex-spouse.  I acknowledge that the journey can be difficult, that you are likely in a high conflict situation and reassure you that the outcome will provide you guidance in how best to achieve your dignified resolution.  Complementing my skills as a parenting plan evaluator and thoroughly understanding the dymanics and complexities of parenting plans, I also provide family therapy to children and parents where resist-refusal behaviours are present when parenting plans do not go as 'planned'.  

Sloane Oswald

Registered psychotherapist

 

Starting therapy can be scary and intimidating. I aim to create a warm, and comforting environment to safely explore a variety of topics. I believe therapy is a place where you can be reflective about experiences, and learn to see things from a different lens and perspective. My clinical experience spans working with adults facing depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, burnout, chronic pain, Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

My approach is integrative and draws from Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), with a focus on mindfulness techniques. I create a safe, supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, guiding you toward achieving your goals.

Outside of the therapy office you can find me curling up with a good fantasy book, playing with my pets, or working up a sweat at the yoga studio or lifting weights.
