My name is Ivania Redpath. My passion for the helping field started at a young age working at a long-term care facility serving meals. There I quickly learned the power of a strong bond and connection that is fostered through communication. In 2012 I completed my undergraduate studies in Therapeutic Recreation, I developed interventions in which an individual is seen as a holistic being working toward their physical, emotional, spiritual, social, and cognitive goals. After completing an internship at Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children, I worked at various community Mental Health Teams, Riverview, and mental health housing.

After almost a decade working in the field, I decided to go back to University and begin my graduate studies in Counselling to become a Registered Clinical Counsellor. Following graduation and beginning a private practice in 2022, I have completed advanced education in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Narrative Therapy, Grief & Loss, and Play Therapy.

I hold a deeper understanding in the psychology of an individual's internal journey, and how the use of specific strategies and approaches in our counselling sessions allow an individual progress through therapy to become a better version of themselves.

Common techniques used include Narrative Therapy, Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and EMDR. For younger clients, Play Therapy techniques are used.

When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends exploring the outdoors, trying new foods, reading a good book or trying out new hobbies. I am an avid learner and enjoy attending numerous continuing education courses or webinars.
