Shannon Bovey, M.Ed., RP, CCC

 

I'm a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I provide therapy from the foundation of a relationship with you built on respect, collaboration, compassion, curiosity and humour.

 

From this place, I use an integration of approaches, along with your own knowledge of what’s needed, when deciding with you how we’ll work together. Some issues I have ease of experience working with include trauma, anxiety, depression, shame, self-worth and grief.Words I’ve heard clients use to describe parts of these experiences include, feeling emotionally lonely, shut down, worrying, avoiding, “replaying” distressing moments, memories and thoughts, having been exposed in some way to traumatic experience(s), and feeling unable to connect with people in the ways they wish and long for. Where are you in the landscape of your life?

 

I trained experientially for some years in narrative therapy and continue to develop ways of knowing and attending to the realities of human suffering, emotional processing and meaning making. I take an intersectional lens in understanding people and their lives and believe in the power of creativity in any process, including psychotherapy.

 

I’m trained in the advanced level of Accelerated resolution therapy (ART) and have completed comprehensive basic training in Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). In addition to my work providing psychotherapy, I offer clinical supervision to practicing psychotherapists. I take a keen interest in collaborating with therapists to increase their reflective practices and deepen their work. I've had the pleasure of supervising both late and early career psychotherapists and social workers and feel privileged to work with therapists across levels of experience.
