Welcome to Dochas Counselling Services.
I hope you are able to get a sense of what is offered, and to feel comfortable working with me.
Are you feeling stressed, tired, or overwhelmed? Are you having difficulty controlling your anger? Do you have a conflict with someone in your life that you would like support to address? Do you have a new diagnosis that feels daunting to process?
Those are just some of the challenges that clients bring to me to discuss and work through.
Whether you're just starting out with therapy, or picking up where you have left off, be assured that I will support you wherever you are on your path to wellness.
Love is Love, and Deserves Respect
I live my life and engage in my work from a Pro-Choice, Pro-Love, Pro-Freedom, Pro-Justice perspective. These are fundamental values that I am passionate about.
My Story
Stephanie Dennis
Thanks for taking the time to check out this website.
I am a Hamiltonian, born and raised --
I attended Queen's University, as well as McMaster University.
I was born with cleft-lip and palate, which is a congenital condition that requires multiple (17 in my case) surgeries to repair.
As such, I spent a lot of time as a child at various hospitals. I also spent a lot of time as a kid trying to hide from the world, because I was scared that people wouldn't like me if they saw that I was different.
My life experiences have entirely shaped my desire to find self-love and support other people in prioritizing their mental health and wellness, too!
I have training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Dialectical Therapy, among others.
Doing private practice is my life's passion, and I genuinely would love to hear from you.
