I have Master's Degrees in Clinical Psychology and Counselling. In addition to professional training and experiences in psychotherapy and treatment, behavioral intervention, and neuropsychological assessments, I use my previous PhD and current doctoral studies to supplement my clinical practice using both clinical-scientist and scientist-practitioner models.
Providing psychotherapy to help people take back control over their lives. Assisting couples with difficulties in intimacy, trust, attachment, and romantic relationships. Supporting families to navigate the often challenging family interactions and helping to build positive connections. As a mental health professional, I guide people of all ages to recover from traumatic experiences, mental illness, and other tough life circumstances.
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Have you been feeling overwhelmed lately by your emotions and life demands? Do you sometimes feel like you have exhausted your coping resources and no longer know how to move forward? If so, do not worry or judge yourself. We have all felt like this at some point in our lives. Let me introduce myself: I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (www.ninahopmeiercounselling.ca), and am extremely passionate about the counselling process due to building a strong and trusting bond with my clients. I work from a supportive and nonjudgmental stance, focusing on strengths and resources that lead to positive change and growth.
Hello there.....my name is Robyn. Do you struggle to feel connected, confident, seen and heard in areas of your life? Do you wish to understand why you continue to do the same thing over and over, expecting a different result? I approach sessions with curiosity, warmth and compassion, understanding that we desire safety and connection in our relationships.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationships, self-esteem, or other issues, I am here to help. I see your strength and I believe in your ability to be resilient, even when things feel difficult. Together we will help build skills so that you can navigate difficult emotions and situations more effectively. I want to educate, empower, and support you.
Counselling is akin to a mental gym, where we exercise and strengthen your mind. Often, people are unaware of the patterns and thought processes that perpetuate negative emotions and experiences. My mission is to collaborate with you, empowering you not only to conquer your challenges but also to liberate yourself from self-defeating beliefs. Together, we'll embark on a transformative journey, unlocking your full potential and creating a life of fulfillment and positivity.
Our clinic centres intersectional 2SLGBTQIA+ mental health and wellness. We are a collective of queer-identified counsellors providing queer and gender affirming therapy to individuals, couples & partners, and families. We are also a neurodivergent team, and offer specialized support around Autism and ADHD. We have a diverse team with a variety of lived/living experiences and professional qualifications to support you along your journey.
As a 1.5-generation Chinese Canadian, who grew up in an Asian immigrant family household, it has shaped and informed my life and practice in many ways. Therapy can be a transformative and empowering experience. I will work with you to develop a deep personal awareness and support you on the path toward healing, learning and growing. Finding a therapist that is a good fit for you is essential. We'll be a good fit if you are motivated, self-reflective and ready to tackle the daunting task of “figuring it all out.”
I believe we all have the innate ability and strength to grow. For some of us, our life circumstances can temporarily stifle our growth and block our path to self-discovery. We can often use a companion during these challenging times, someone who can shine a light on a dark path that is often lonely to travel solo on.
I believe that a person has the answers and wisdom within them to solve their issues. I will work collaborativley with you to help you get the life you want. Working together we will get to your answers and then I will support you in achieving your goals. I provide a safe & trusting environment.
