At Samantha Corrigan Counselling, I work with both individuals and couples. I help my clients with customized ADHD plans, anxiety/panic attacks, OCD, depression, personality disorders, relationship issues, and eating disorders. I take a limited amount of clients at once so I make myself available in between sessions as well.
I provide a wholistic approach to therapy, this is comprised of all aspects of your life to try to create real change as opposed to putting a band aid on. I will briefly ask about your childhood, friends, and social support system. This not only helps me understand what makes you, you, but it is also helps me know where our work needs to begin .
Most of our lives are spent at work. If we are unfulfilled at our job, it feels like a toxic environment, and/or we are unable to advocate our needs, this will create dissonance in all other parts of lives. I work with my clients to find ways to navigate this area of their lives, and we come together to find alternative paths.
Intimate partnerships are another major component that I look at and touch on. Our childhood, unhealthy attachments styles, and low self worth can lead us towards a pattern of instability with partners. We work on finding the origin of this, and create helpful ways to facilitate healthy change today.
When someone comes to me for anxiety, depression, mood changes, eating disorders, ADHD etc…I look at all components including potential medical causes. All of my work is tailored specifically for each client.
