Psychotherapy

What is it?

Psychotherapy is a form of treatment commonly used to help people experiencing thoughts, behaviours and/or feelings that are causing them stress and unease. The relationship created through psychotherapy should feel safe and supportive for the client, allowing for deeper exploration of life's challenges. Psychotherapy is designed to help achieve and maintain a state of authenticity and mental wellness.

What To Expect

Sessions will be conducted virtually and the therapist  will send a link at least 24h before the scheduled session. 

Prior to working together, a brief questionnaire will be completed by the client and a free 20 minute consultation will take place. The questionnaire and consultation will provide the therapist an opportunity to get to know the client, obtain consent for service, discuss future sessions and payments, and answer any questions.  

Follow-up sessions will be 50 minutes and will be structured to meet the needs of individual clients.

About the Nurse Psychotherapist

Welcome! My name is Taylor Malcolm (she/her/hers) and I am a Registered Nurse and Certified Nurse Psychotherapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, expertise, and personalized care.

 

I am currently a member in good standing with The College of Nurses of Ontario and The Canadian Nurse Psychotherapist Association and have certificates of Advanced Training for Mental Health Providers with Autism Ontario and Children's Mental Health Ontario. I have experience and passion for working with neurodivergent populations, postpartum people, and individuals in recovery/struggling with alcoholism and addiction. 

 

I value each person’s unique life experience, recognizing the impact systemic and intersectional factors have on one’s wellbeing. Grounded in principals encapsulated in emancipatory nursing, I strive to create an inclusive environment where people can heal and grow, learning to love their authentic selves. As a passionate advocate for trauma-informed and neurodiversity affirming care, I focus on seeing the person, not just the pathology. As a neurodivergent individual, I have a deeper comprehension of the cognitive, sensory and affective differences that can impact relationships and well-being if not adequately supported. Committed to a growth mindset, equity and holistic care are at the forefront of my practice.  

​

As someone who understands the courage it takes to face our own challenges, I would be honoured to embark on the vulnerable journey to authentic wellbeing with you.
