Everything is figure-out-able. Sometimes, you just need someone to help you work through it.
Natalie’s approach to therapy is not to eliminate the hard thing, but to help you learn how to live with the hard thing and improve your experience of life, as you want to live it.
Holding degree is both Counselling Psychology (MACP) and Education, Natalie believes in the power of psycho education. Learning about the things you struggle with empowers you to understand how to modify your own experience.
Natalie specializes in working with couples. Using the Gottman Method in combination with other therapy modalities, you will learn how strengthen your friendship with your spouse and improve intimacy. We will work on communication strategies and learn about attachment and trauma that is potentially impacting your partnership. Every couple is different and we will cultivate a therapy approach that meets your needs as a couple, as well as two individuals.
Let’s meet for a free 15 minute consultation and see if we are a good fit. The personality match between a counsellor and her clients is the foundation to successful outcomes.
Natalie is the mother of 2 amazing teen daughters and the step-mother of 3 more amazing teens. Natalie is a cat and dog mom too. Natalie combines evidence-based practice with her personal experiences with: divorce, separation with children, toxic relationships, blended families, multi-religious family structure, inter-generational trauma, and mid-life identity and career shifts.
Natalie is a published author, podcast host and avid reader. Natalie takes chai lattes and poutine very seriously, and can spend hours explaining how self-deprecating humour is one of the best therapeutic modalities available. (This is scientifically proven). Puppies are also a great therapeutic tool.
Corey Wilson
Populations I work with
Couples, Adults
Approaches I use
An interest-based mediation approach, which means we focus not just on what each person wants, but why they want it — exploring the underlying needs, concerns, and priorities behind each position. This often helps both parties move away from rigid stances and work together to find creative, practical solutions that work for everyone, especially your child.
Issues I work with
Separation, divorce, co-parenting, parenting agreements, separation agreements, interfaith issues.
“Divorce is hard. It doesn’t matter if you’re the one leaving or if you’re the one who got left. It makes folks do crazy things.”
– Ted Lasso
Corey is focused on helping couples move through the separation and divorce process using interest based mediation techniques. Couples can learn more about the values that are driving their decisions and behaviours. We focus on common values that can help inform solutions to your issues. Every situation and family is different and mediation helps the parties come up with solutions that best fit their needs.
Corey is the father to one adult and two teenagers as well as the step-father to two teenage girls. Corey’s introduction to mediation came when he went through his own divorce. He applies his personal experiences with separation, co-parenting, mixed-faith marriage, religious trauma, and blended families, to his own mediation practice.
