What Therapy With Me Feels Like
My Approach
My work is rooted in relational and psychodynamic theory, though the heart of my approach is really about human connection. I’m not a blank slate or passive sounding board. Therapy with me is engaged, collaborative, and deeply relational. I see us as co-explorers working together to better understand the patterns, experiences, wounds, and protective strategies shaping your inner world and relationships. I bring warmth, curiosity, honesty, and humour into the room when it feels right. My hope is to create a space where you feel safe enough to show up fully as yourself: messy, uncertain, evolving, hurting, growing, and deeply seen within it.

About Claire
I’m Claire Doherty, a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO), and I truly adore this work. I feel incredibly passionate about the role therapy can play in helping people better understand themselves, heal old wounds, and create more meaningful relationships with themselves and others.
I love supporting clients as they begin making connections between their past and present, noticing patterns with greater compassion, and growing into versions of themselves that feel more grounded, connected, and authentic. It’s important to me that therapy feels like a space where you can show up honestly, feel genuinely understood, and experience change that lasts beyond the therapy room.
