About Rebecca Hope Terry
Feel free to call me "Hope". As a Certified Nurse Psychotherapist (Q) , I have training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and work with 18+ adults to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, to improve well-being and foster lasting positive change. I support clients in healing through art, nature, somatic expression and animals. I also offer somatic counselling to people who stutter.
By providing in-person and virtual therapy I can help you find the tools to navigate life's challenges: whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, a life transition, burn-out, struggling with an eating disorder or addiction, we can work together to help you understand and implement positive life-affirming skills, so you can live your best life.
My background is diverse, primarily in the Arts being a professional Contemporary Dancer and Multidisciplinary artist for more than 35 years. I have worked with people who are neurodivergent as well as adults living with developmental delays within a community day program. and provided movement therapy to people who are blind and the older population. I am a trained Cranial Sacral Therapist and attended the Barbara Brennan School of Healing, in Miami Florida. I was a hospital "float nurse" working in various departments at Hamilton Health Sciences.
As your therapist, I am curious about your life and experiences. I offer you compassion, non-judgment, and tangible tools to help you thrive.
