Melissa Anderson

Hello! My name is Melissa Anderson and I am Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers. I hold an Honours Bachelor of Arts degree, a Master of Arts degree, a Master's in Social Work degree, and a post-graduate certificate in Leadership. I am also a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200), Registered Kids Yoga Teacher (98 hours) and an Accredited Certified EFT Practitioner. I have been providing counselling and psychotherapy services for over 20-years and have experience working with all ages and mental health issues.

In my private practice, I work with adults and children, couples and families. I provide services for various EAP providers including, active and retired Canadian Armed Forces members, VQRP+, NIHB.. I use a variety of evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Processing Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, MBSR, EFT, and other somatic therapies unique to the needs of each client.

Reaching out for mental health support is perhaps one of the most courageous things someone can do for themselves and/or their loved ones. Everyone deserves the opportunity to feel loved, and have hope and belonging. My goal is to help all clients feel secure, connected and empowered.
