Ocean is a registered psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario.
Ocean works primarily with adults navigating life’s challenges, such as Depression, Trauma, ADHD, Generalized Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia, Health Anxiety, Attachment Anxiety, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Rumination, Anger, and Substance Use.
Ocean’s therapeutic approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with experience incorporating other evidence-based approaches, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness-based practices, as appropriate to each client’s needs and goals.
Still-Water Counselling is the private practice founded to create a calm, supportive space for reflection, growth, and healing. Therapy should be tailored to the person - not driven by rigid protocols or a one-size-fits-all approach. Services are intentionally designed to offer thoughtful, client-centered care where you can feel heard, supported, and empowered to navigate life’s challenges.
At Stillwater Counselling, your well-being comes first. Therapy should be a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and free to be yourself.
Your identity, culture, and lived experiences matter. I welcome people from all backgrounds and strive to create a space where everyone feels respected, valued, and supported—including members of 2SLGBTQIA+ and Indigenous communities.
I’m committed to ongoing learning and professional development so that my practice stays informed by current research and best practices in psychotherapy.
I believe therapy should be collaborative, respectful, and tailored to your unique experiences, strengths, and goals. And if I’m not the right fit, I’ll always do my best to help you find the right support.
