About Kaytee

(she/her)

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), with an MA in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I ground my work in deep respect for individual differences and strengths, supporting clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of themselves, by using a warm, nonjudgmental, and person-centred approach, often with humor and intentional self-disclosure. Given my experience as an AuDHD individual diagnosed in my 40s, I have carved out a niche working with late-diagnosed perimenopausal and menopausal women, as they are an underserved population, and perimenopause and menopause are now special interests of mine. Thanks, biology.

I strongly believe that life is more peaceful when we embrace what makes us uncommon, and I strive to help my clients transform those differences into sources of strength and meaning. Using a trauma-informed lens, I help clients recognize that the coping strategies that once helped them survive may no longer be serving them — approaching this with compassion rather than judgment. Aside from employing a foundation of the Rogerian tenets of unconditional positive regard, congruence, and empathy, I use an integrative/eclectic approach, drawing from ACT, CBT, DBT, Psychodynamic interventions, and more, as required for each individual.
