Susannah Church, MSW, RSW
Social Worker | Psychotherapist | Clinical Supervisor
My goal is to support my clients to find the clarity and confidence they need to move forward in life. I believe the right approach can uncover one's innate capacity for healing, balance and wholeness. I support clients dealing with various challenges including trauma, self esteem, anxiety, relationships and burnout.
​
I have experience with clients ages 4 - 94, in various settings, such as: public schools, hospital emergency rooms, northern mental health services and family health teams. I now specialize in providing EMDR therapy, with an eclectic approach that incorporates elements of my other trainings and knowledge. I bring natural aspects of my personality to my therapy sessions: intuition, warmth, humour, patience and honesty.
​
With 13 years of experience in the mental health field, I continue to seek training and hone my clinical skills. As a 2SLGBTQ+ ally, I aim to provide a safe space for everyone.
