About Heather

Their own words
Heather Cota a Registered Psychotherapist. Over 15 yrs in the Counselling and Therapy field and over 25 years in the helping profession. I believe that each client is the expert on their own life, and I provide a collaborative, compassionate, and appropriately challenging therapeutic space where growth can occur. Together, we explore how faulty belief systems, unhelpful thought patterns, and past experiences may be influencing present-day challenges. By identifying existing strengths, developing practical coping skills, and focusing on achievable goals, I empower clients to change their own narrative and build a life that aligns with their values. Using a strength-based, trauma-informed approach, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and together we will identify and challenge faulty belief systems, develop practical coping strategies, and build on the resilience you already possess. Therapy is a collaborative process that honours your unique experiences while gently challenging the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we will work to rewrite your narrative, foster greater self-awareness and confidence, and help you move toward a life that feels authentic, balanced, and fulfilling. Whether you're seeking healing, personal growth, or a fresh perspective, I am committed to walking alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and evidence-based care as you create the life you envision. Working with Children and Youth 6yrs and older as well as Adults navigating parenthood and life transitions. I am a trained in Compassion fatigue(Empathic Strain) workplace burnout as well.
