Andrea Stupak B.Ed., MACP, RP

Reaching out for help is the first step to overcoming life’s most difficult challenges.  Whether or not this is your first-time seeking therapy, I know it’s not easy to admit we need help and reach out for support.  My goal is to create a safe space, free of judgement, where you feel comfortable to express your thoughts and feelings.  You will find my style to be warm, empathetic, and nurturing. 

My approach in therapy is collaborative and integrative which means I will work with you and your unique needs to establish therapeutic goals, explore expression, and facilitate growth.  In our sessions, I will offer various techniques and modalities to ensure our time together is most beneficial for you.  I draw upon interventions like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

As a registered psychotherapist, I am passionate about healing, self-discovery, and lifelong learning.  I received my undergrad degree in Social Sciences from the University of Ottawa.  I also have my Bachelor of Education degree from the University of Ottawa and am certified to teach Junior, Intermediate, and Senior divisions under the Ontario College of Teachers licence.  I have eight years of experience teaching, counselling, and mentoring children, teens, and young adults.

I understand that life can be hard, and I admire you for having the courage to take this remarkable first step.  We all need support – it’s part of being human.  I am here to walk along this journey with you, supporting you along the way. 

I am accepting new clients.
