Introduction

Welcome to Veritas Counselling & Psychotherapy! My name is Rachel Wilson. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), licensed with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I received my M.Div. (Clinical Counselling) from Tyndale University, a program that focuses on Family Systems models of psychotherapy. I provide online therapy services and am currently accepting clients who reside in Ontario, Alberta, and Nova Scotia. I provide individual therapy (for teens and adults), couples therapy, and family therapy. 

My clinical approach: I am a trauma-informed therapist who takes on an attachment framework in my work with clients.  My clinical approach can be described as "integrative," meaning I often utilize several therapeutic modalities during the course of treatment, provided that works best for you and your therapeutic goals.  My therapeutic style is centered around creating a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. 

Modalities I work with include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Narrative, Family Systems Models, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectic and Behavioural Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also offer faith-based counselling, for clients who are interested in integrating their faith into the treatment process or for clients whose faith or religious background is relevant to their therapeutic journey.

I have experience working with a broad range of presenting issues, including depression, anxiety, grief & loss, trauma, phobias, marital & family issues, infidelity, addiction, self-esteem issues, eating disorders, body image issues, infertility, miscarriage and infant loss, and stress management. 

It is a profound honour to walk beside you on your journey of self-discovery, healing, and wholeness. I am humbled to bear witness to your resilience and strength as you navigate life's challenges and discover the truth about your identity.
