Sherri provides compassionate, client-centred counselling to individuals (14+) and families. Through her warm and inviting nature, clients learn about managing a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress response, relationship reconciliation, separation and divorce, blended families, parenting, and work-life balance. Sherri supports her clients as they explore effective communication strategies, negative thinking and self-sabotaging behaviour, healthier relationships, self-compassion, and overall personal growth and well-being. These strategies are authentically examined by employing a range of evidence-based and trauma-informed therapeutic approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness-based interventions, gradual exposure therapy, emotion-focused family therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, narrative therapy, and other trauma-informed collaborative therapies.
Sherri is a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers and a Pre-Clinical Fellow with the American and Ontario Associations for Marriage and Family Therapy. Sherri qualifies to accept extended health insurance that requires a Registered Social Worker or Family Therapist designation and is an approved provider for a number of Employee Assistance Plans (EAP).
Sherri received her Master of Science in Family Therapy at the Department of Counselling and School Psychology from the University of Massachusetts Boston and her Honors Bachelor of Arts degree in Human Ecology with a specialization in Family Studies from Western University, both with academic distinction. She also received her Animal Assisted Therapy certification through the University of North Texas concurrently while attending graduate school.

Haley is passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, confidence, and compassion. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply seeking deeper self-understanding, her goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel truly seen and heard. Haley believes healing happens not only through insight but also through genuine connection — and that you don’t have to go through it alone.
Haley is a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). She brings with her an Honours B.A. in Psychology from York University and a Masters degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. Haley works with individuals (14 years+), couples, and the 2SLGBTQ+ community. Her areas of focus include anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, boundary issues, and stress management. Haley integrates trauma-informed care with existing evidence-based practices including cognitive-behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, self-compassion, and The Gottman Method.
Therapy with Haley is collaborative, down-to-earth, and tailored to your unique story. Together, you’ll work to uncover patterns that no longer serve you and build new ways of thinking, feeling, and living that align with who you truly are.
