Natalie
Hi, I'm Natalie Kaake (pronounced "cake"), a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. I specialize in helping individuals address personal difficulties, prioritizing the creation of a collaborative and safe space for healing.
I believe that everyone’s healing journey is unique, and therefore, I take a holistic approach to collaboratively create a tailored treatment plan for each person. Utilizing a diverse range of therapeutic modalities, including DBT, EFT, CBT, IFS, and EMDR therapy, I strive to help individuals heal from their trauma, strengthen self-awareness, and develop effective emotional regulation skills. This therapeutic process can aid in managing life's challenges and improving overall quality of life.
Life can feel overwhelming, but rediscovering yourself can feel incredibly empowering. Together, we can pave your path towards improved emotional health and well-being.

I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology and an undergraduate degree in psychology. Additionally, I have an addiction worker diploma and am trained in EMDR therapy. I am an active member with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA).
