Welcome! My name is Reegan Bushby and I am a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist. I offer virtual therapy services for individuals aged 14+ with a specialization in CBT for depression, generalised anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety, panic disorder, phobias, OCD, and PTSD. I also support clients with sports mental health, struggling with body image, disordered eating, sleep hygiene, self-esteem, boundary issues, and relationship issues. My major focus as a therapist is being authentic and building a strong therapeutic relationship with all my clients. I use a client centred approach in order to determine the goals you hope to reach by the end of our time together. This will help us make an intentional and informed plan on how to proceed with specific therapy modalities that are best suited for you. I completed my Honours Bachelor of Social Work Degree at Lakehead University, followed by my Masters Degree in Social Work from the University of Western Ontario. My practice over the past 6 years has included a variety of experience with Indigenous populations, palliative patients and caregivers, child welfare organizations, international welfare agencies, severe mental health facilities, rehabilitation hospital settings, community health care centres, and private practices. I recognize that therapy may appear intimidating or unfamiliar to some, but I hope to create an open and welcoming space for all my clients.

Hi! My name is Kaitlin MacLean and I am a Registered Social Worker.

I recognize that sometimes, past experiences can leave us feeling stuck and unable to find enjoyment in life. Reaching out for support is not always easy and can leave us feeling vulnerable. It is my goal to work alongside you to build your self-esteem, self-compassion, process grief and loss, work through the negative effects of past trauma, or address whatever other therapeutic goals you may have while we work together.

My areas of specialization include depression, anxiety, addictions, perfectionism, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, trauma, and grief and loss. I use evidence-based practices while honouring a client-centred approach when working alongside clients on their journey to wellness. These include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Theory (CPT), Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), and Mindfulness. Therapy is not one-size fits all and I work with clients and their strengths to establish personal goals in a safe, confidential, non-judgemental, and caring environment. I work with individuals 16+ to assist them in gaining the knowledge and skills to work through negative thoughts and emotions and instigate positive change in their lives that can be noticed both mentally and physically.

My name is Olivia and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Q) AND the newest therapist at Simply Connected Therapy. Before learning anything else about me there are two things you need to know; 1) I love working with people and 2) I love my job, I truly can’t imagine doing anything else. I specialize in anxiety, stress management, trauma, and sports performance.

Through encouragement and non-judgmental support, you can access your own strength, skills, and personal expertise to achieve personal empowerment and wellness. As a therapist I foster connections with clients to create a supportive, warm, and strength-based environment to help you reach your fullest potential. My goal is to help you reach your goals!

I have a unique educational background; I recently finished my Master of Arts Counselling Psychology program through Yorkville University in Fredericton, New Brunswick. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a focus in Adventure Therapy and a certificate in Leadership and Environmental Sustainability from Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, British Columbia. I also hold a diploma in Outdoor Adventure Guiding from Algonquin College in Pembroke, Ontario as well as a certificate in Mental Health and Addiction Studies from Toronto Metropolitan University in Toronto, Ontario. I believe in lifelong learning in all capacities, and I am continuing my studies at the Toronto Metropolitan University by working towards a certificate in Indigenous Knowledges and Experiences. I like to approach each client as a unique individual and use a holistic, client centered approach. While working together we will collaborate to design a personal plan to address your needs. You are worthy and deserving of a personalized therapeutic experience. Therefore, I incorporate multiple approaches such as cognitive behavioural therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, integrative somatic therapy, dialectical behavioural therapy, breath work and the Gottman method into practice to ensure that we can create the right approach to optimize your wellbeing.

If you are interested in working together, book a FREE TELEPHONE CONSULTATION with me! During this time, we will explore if we are a good fit for one another and how we can work together to help you reach your goals.

Hi! My name is Kelsey Voth and I am a Registered Social Worker. I hold a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree as well as a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Psychology, and I have extensive experience working with children and youth, as well as folks with disabilities, chronic pain, experiences of trauma, and various mental health concerns. I provide individual counselling to teens and adults with a wide range of backgrounds, experiences, and goals for therapy. My approach to counselling is trauma-informed and relationally-centred, and I draw on modalities that foster compassion, empathy, embodiment and connection.

I believe that as humans, growth is our birthright. It guides our everyday choices and interactions and ultimately leads us to live in ways that feel peaceful, free, and aligned with our values. But it’s really hard to grow when we’re overwhelmed or in “survival mode.” If you’re tired of just going through the motions - feeling empty, numb, disconnected, or out of control - I would be honoured to partner with you on your journey back to yourself, whether that includes working through things that happened in the past or exploring the path forward.

My style is open, relaxed, relational, and trauma-informed. My goal is to hold space for your unique story and vision for your life, working with you to explore it with curiosity and compassion. Together we can explore what keeps you from hearing your own inner wisdom, from feeling connected and grounded, and from experiencing peace, freedom, and purpose.

Because whole-person wellness is impacted by a variety of physical, psychological, social, structural, and spiritual factors, I take a holistic approach to mental health that recognizes the uniqueness of each client and their journey. I draw on a wide variety of evidence-based approaches in my work, including attachment, mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and narrative therapy. We can decide together what kind of approach feels best for you, based on your values, priorities, and strengths.
