Compassionate Online Therapy Across Ontario
Virtual counselling for adults dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and persistent challenging emotional patterns. EMDRIA-trained Registered Social Worker offering evidence-based therapy from the comfort of your home.
Feeling Stuck in the Past? Fearing the Future?
Many people seek counselling because past experiences continue to impact the current moment. You might notice yourself:
​​
-
Reacting intensely to situations that may not require such a response
-
Avoiding people, places, or activities because they trigger difficult feelings
-
Feeling disconnected from yourself or others
-
Carrying beliefs like "I'm not enough" or "I can't trust anyone"
-
Catastrophizing your future or that of others in an attempt to "get ahead" of a potential problem
-
Struggling with anxiety, depression, or patterns you can't seem to break​
These aren't signs that something is wrong with you. They are signs that your nervous system is still holding onto experiences that felt overwhelming at the time—experiences your brain hasn't fully processed yet.
​
Specialized therapy can help your brain complete that processing, so those old experiences no longer run your present life.
Services Offered
I offer specialized therapy approaches tailored to what you're dealing with. Each service focuses on helping you process what's been stuck and move forward with more ease.
Why Choose Virtual Therapy?​
All sessions are conducted virtually via secure, encrypted video. This means:
​
✓ No commuting—therapy from the comfort of your own space
✓ Access to specialized care from anywhere in Ontario
✓ Flexible scheduling, including evening appointments
✓ The same therapeutic effectiveness as in-person sessions
​
Virtual therapy isn't a compromise. Research shows online therapy is equally effective for treating trauma, anxiety, and depression—what matters most is the therapeutic relationship and the work we do together.​
Meet Amy May, RSW
I'm a Registered Social Worker offering virtual counselling across Ontario. My path to this work has been winding—from computer programming to early childhood education to social work counselling. I understand what it's like to navigate unexpected turns.
​
I'm also someone who has done my own healing work through therapy, including EMDR. That personal experience with trauma processing shapes how I show up—with humility, compassion, and deep respect for the courage it takes to seek support.
