Hello, my name is Simone Donaldson and I believe that we often forget that we already possess the answers , strengths, and capability to navigate difficult times, and my hope is to guide people to and through these answers. I also believe if we reminded ourselves that we are inherently valuable and created for a purpose, we would tap into our most healed selves, allowing us to thrive. Psychotherapy is transformational work for the mind, body and soul. I have seen personally and professionally where mental health support can truly change whole lives, and when neglected, completely deteriorate lives. I entered this work, because even at a young age, I was always drawn to ensuring others felt seen, heard, valued and well. I am both an advocate and nurturer at heart. I have my Bachelor’s Degree from Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University) and Master’s from Dalhousie University, which has significantly helped shape my practice, along with lived experiences. I address a variety of concerns including anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship conflict, grief, racial trauma, and domestic violence to name a few. I am an eclectic worker and use a variety of modalities which include Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT) & Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT). I am truly excited to support you on your healing journey.
