Release the Past—Embrace the Future

Let Me Help You Cope, Heal and Move On

Nancy G. Kinsey Lewis, Registered Psychotherapist

Tell me what you’re going through and I will listen attentively. Together we will identify the emotional obstacles getting in the way of you resolving mental health concerns and moving forward in life. Through skillful counseling, I assist people (16 years old and above) to overcome chronic stress, anxiety and childhood trauma.

Holistic Approach

Taking care of your mental health is as important as keeping your physical health in check. Following a holistic approach, I can show you how this can be done.

As a psychotherapist who has been practicing for more than 20 years, I have worked in the areas of children’s mental health (aged 6 – 16), violence against women, transitional age (15 – 25) youth, adults, Indigenous, LGBT and new Canadian communities.

Counseling Approach

I follow a holistic approach drawing from my training and experience in relational psychotherapy, narrative therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy and body/mind awareness. I have advanced level training as a trauma counselor. As a counselor, I have received these words from clients:

• “An excellent listener”

• “I know myself better”

• “I learned new skills that help me cope”

• “Someone who helps to lift the burden”

• “Therapy has been a life-changing experience”

Break Free

Therapy allows you to identify the
places where you feel emotionally
trapped. As you acquire a better
understanding of your experiences,
you likewise develop a heightened level
of awareness.

This is essential to transforming
yourself into the person you truly wish to be. As you become free from
stumbling blocks, you are now ready
to encounter new experiences and
deal with life's challenges better.

Find Joy

Move forward and find joy as I walk
with you on your journey from fear
based living to confident and joyful
living. As I support you in finding yourself,
your abilities, and choosing your path, you
will be able to spot behaviors and habits
hindering progress.

Learn to clear negativity from past
experiences, open doors in the
present, and move forward into new
and worthwhile experiences. These are the
first steps to healthful living and obtaining a
positive outlook on life.
