Getting to us from Bradford

Highway 400 north, exit at Bayfield Street. Approximately 30 kilometres.

If travelling is not practical, sessions are also available by secure video anywhere in Ontario.

In person or online

Virtual, in person, or both

Sessions run in person at 27 Gowan Street in Barrie, or by secure video anywhere in Ontario. You are not asked to choose one at the start and stay with it.

If you live outside Barrie that may be the part that matters most — video for a week when the drive is not realistic, and an office to come to when you would rather be in the room. Tell us which you would prefer when you book, and say if you would like the option of both.

Not every service is offered virtually by every clinician, and couples sessions in particular have fewer virtual options. The free 20-minute consultation is where we work that out with you.

Working with more than one person
