When Should I Seek Christian Counselling?

Christian counselling supports people who want to integrate their faith into their healing process. Therapy may help if you are:

* Navigating grief, loss, and spiritual pain
* Experiencing burnout, compassion fatigue, and exhaustion
* Facing life transitions and big decisions
* Struggling with anxiety, identity, or loss of purpose
* Healing from religious experiences or church trauma
* Wanting to reconnect with yourself and God

Christian counselling offers a space to explore, reflect and move towards healing, and renewal with your faith respected and included.

What is different about Christian Therapy vs. Secular Online Therapy?

I work with adults across Ontario, including clergy, healthcare professionals, caregivers, and anyone seeking faith-based therapy. Sessions take place securely online through a confidential Telehealth platform. The credentials and approach is very similar to non-faith-based therapy; the difference is that your beliefs can be deeply and professionally integrated into your healing. We will:

  • Slow down and listen to what’s stirring in you
  • Explore emotions, questions, and spiritual themes
  • Develop coping tools rooted in your values and beliefs
  • Tend to your soul as well as your symptoms

This work combines clinical tools with soul care. It’s trauma-informed, evidence-based, and spiritually sensitive. As a Registered Psychotherapist and ordained minister, I offer care that respects both your emotional world and your walk with God.

Many clients use extended health benefits to cover sessions. Receipts for reimbursement are available.

There are two paths to explore:

Christian Counselling:
Professional psychotherapy that honours your Christian worldview, respects your inner complexity, and helps you grow through the pain without being held down by guilt. BOOK HERE

Spiritual Exploration and Direction:
If you’re in a season of deconstruction, discernment, or spiritual reawakening, spiritual direction may be a better fit. These reflective, non-judgmental sessions focus on reconnecting with God and self, using scripture, sacred listening, and prayer.

Therapist and Coach for professionals in burnout prevention or recovery

Hi, I’m Erika: RP. Educator. Coach

For nearly ten years, I have worked in health care, spiritual care, and community settings. I have supported people facing terminal illness, sudden change, caregiver strain, and complex emotional loss. I have also helped professionals navigate burnout, leadership fatigue, and the quiet questions of who they are becoming.

I have learned so much from my time in various health care settings – in the complex work of supporting people through crisis. It’s often those moments of fracturing when our eyes are open to the reality that we need professional help. And this is where the change is ready to take place. The seed is just about ready to sprout into what it’s meant to be. But the process hurts.

When something painful is brought into the light with care, it can start to become new. Therapy is not about fixing who you are. It is about noticing what has been buried, naming what is true, and learning to move forward from that place. Much of our suffering comes from silence and lack of support. In our work together, you are invited to speak what has been unnamed and find clarity. Your values, your pain, your hopes and your limits.

I help you develop self-awareness and tools for resilience that align with your goals. Together, we explore what is most important to you and areas where you are vulnerable to continued burnout and potential trauma.

Therapy with me is often helpful for:

* Professionals who feel emotionally drained
* Caregivers supporting aging parents or sick loved ones
* People living with chronic grief or unresolved loss
* Those feeling lost in their work, relationships, or identity
* Helpers who are good at holding space for others but not for themselves

I specialize in supporting people who are navigating grief, emotional exhaustion, spiritual questions, and caregiving stress. My training integrates evidence-based therapy models with psychospiritual care. Some clients come looking for a spiritually-integrated therapist. Others are simply looking for a thoughtful place to talk. No particular faith or belief system is required.

Clinical Background
I have worked in hospitals, hospices, long-term care homes, and with community organizations across Ontario and more recently in Regina, Saskatchewan. These experiences have shaped how I work with grief, loss, and the emotional toll of caregiving.

In all of these settings, I have been present with people in the realities of everyday life, and in the aftermath of hard news. The consistent need is not quick answers. It is someone to stay, to notice, and to help sort through what still matters.

Organizations I have worked with include:

Lee Manor, Owen Sound, ON
Brightshores Health System, Owen Sound
Meaford General Hospital, Meaford, ON
Palliative Care Outreach Team, Grey County and The Blue Mountains
Collingwood General and Marine Hospital, Collingwood, ON
Royal Victoria Hospital, Barrie, ON
Santa Maria Senior Citizens Home, Regina, SK
Canadian Association for Spiritual Care (educator and facilitator)

My approach blends clinical methods with the deeper work of meaning-making. The modalities I rely on are CBT, ACT, Narrative Therapy, Family Systems Theory, SFBT and person-centred logotherapy.

Whether you are grieving, questioning your direction, or you can feel yourself slowly coming apart under pressure, therapy can help you return to what matters. I bring a calm, steady presence and listen carefully for what is ready to emerge and the goals you may have.

Online therapy allows you to access support from wherever you are. I work with clients across Ontario. That includes people living in the GTA, in cities like Toronto and Mississauga, and in the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge and Guelph regions. I also work with clients in rural areas who prefer private, flexible access to therapy. My focus is prevention and recovery from burnout, which relies on defining professional identity, boundaries, risks and strengths.

Virtual therapy may be a good fit if you:

* Are managing a full schedule or complex family responsibilities
* Live in a smaller community with limited options for specialized therapy
* Prefer to talk from the privacy and comfort of home
* Are navigating burnout, grief, or emotional fatigue
* Need support that works with your professional life

I offer a quiet and confidential space for people who feel stretched thin and unsure of what they need next.
