CCP

We work with each other and our community. No mental health clinicians should work alone and we know our community in Hamilton is strong. We identify what sets us apart not to compete, but to attempt to explain how we approach this work in a unique and exceptional way.

We're here when you're ready.
A steady and compassionate presence.

(and yes, I'm Italian. The hands never stop 👋👏✋)

Everyone has a story and I'm grateful everyday that I get to help people untangle the chapters that make them who they are.

Take a look at this video to see how uncomfortable I am asking people to look at our website;)

Thank you again for helping me step outside my comfort zone.

Caring for Carers is a support and skill building group we have been offering monthly for over 10 years. Typically designed for carers of individuals who are navigating a mental illness diagnosis, this month’s group will be open to mothers of all kinds.

Special Edition Caring for Carers : Holding Space: An evening of support for mothers.

For this evening only, we are opening up Caring for Carers for mothers of all kinds. We are seeing a concerning amount of mothers lately who are attempting to cope with the demands of motherhood that go far beyond what anyone can do without a village of support. What this has led to is increasingly higher levels of anxiety, fatigue, apathy, and stress in women who are trying to manage it all.

Caring for Carers has always primarily had mothers attend our monthly groups. This time, we are opening it up to anyone who will make the time to come for 2 hours to find support in a community of like-minded people.

Led by Carly Crawford, this workshop is designed to support mothers experiencing the cumulative stressors of modern life, including emotional overload, role strain, and feelings of isolation. The session provides a structured and supportive environment to explore the psychological and physiological impacts of stress associated with caregiving. Participants will be guided through facilitated discussion, reflective exercises, and practical strategies aimed at enhancing emotional regulation, stress management, and self-compassion. The workshop also emphasizes the normalization of maternal experiences and the importance of social connection as a protective factor for mental well-being. This is a space for mothers to engage in meaningful dialogue, build supportive connections, and develop tools to navigate the ongoing demands of parenting with greater resilience and psychological support.

Just over a week away.

Luisa Di Iorio may only be with us very part-time, but her passion for this work is palpable. I had the opportunity to spend the evening with her last night and the ideas for building support here at CCP are endless.

As a full-time social worker elsewhere, Luisa's experience working with adults covers a wide spectrum of challenges. Last night after we spoke about her experience working in jails in New York City, we spoke of her vision for a mental health group for men, focusing on building community, reducing anger and helping to foster strength in relationships. When the time is right, I cannot tell you how perfect she is for the job.

Luisa has been with me since 2020 and now works with us part-time, evenings only and only online right now.

Thank you, Luisa for keeping CCP part of your life.

In their natural habitat.

We're here when you're ready, our slogan since 2020.

The faces of CCP may change over the years (so many CCP babies and we love it) but our foundation stays the same.

See you soon ✌️🏼💙

Andrea, it feels like you’ve been part of this team forever. You’re made for this work and I’m so proud to have you here to learn from and walk alongside.

Andrea brings immense experience to her role as a therapist in her second career. Personally, I admire Andrea’s careful attention to detail, her compassion and curiosity. Andrea’s been with us for 2 months now and has already built her reputation, impact, and caseload on a very solid foundation.

You’re right, Andrea therapy is helpful for things big or small.

To say this career evolved after a series of unfortunate events would be the short and punchy version of a longer more complicated road map.

My roots in the banking industry and communication studies (wanted to be a journalist for a bit) to early childhood education to finding myself studying Clinical Behavioural Sciences was never part of the “plan”. From the outside looking in, I’m sure I’m pegged as an A-type planner but surprise, I’m not.

“Plans don’t change things—what we do when the plan falls apart does.” Is kind of my motto.

If you’ve been following us for a while you know this space, my commitment and my work with my clients is personal. Patholgize that if you want to, I sincerely don’t care 💙 I believe the best people for this work are the ones who are balancing it all just like our clients. The ones who can humanize and relate to the struggles of those brave enough to sit across from us.

So, the short answer to “what made you want to be a therapist?” Is, I have a tendency to do things myself when I’ve been let down too many times and I’m working on it;)

This is possibly one of my favourites messages from our latest round of videos from our team. An incredibly important message from Remi Long one of our Registered Psychotherapists.

Sometimes the change we’re searching for when we come to therapy is huge. We're expecting to never do something again, or never have a bad thought or to completely change the way our relationships feel.

What we want you to make room for is, an understanding that shifts in therapy are often gradual and subtle movements over time.

I love how Remi describes “the challenges being less in the forefront and more background noise.”

Having realistic expectations of what growth may look like in this space helps clients be more compassionate with themselves as they navigate steps towards feeling better.

“One of my highest values as a clinician is client autonomy which means that I hold deep respect for everyone’s right to choose what feels right for them. Everyone’s circumstances are so different and it’s never up to me to decide on a client’s behalf what’s best for their life. I hope that our conversations can offer guidance, insight, and support as you determine your next right step. “- Remi.

Remi is back in a couple of weeks (ish) and we can't wait!

The face you likely recognize most out of our team members is this beautiful soul, she's the back bone of our nutrition programs which includes most of our programming for Eating Disorder support.

She works tirelessly for her clients and is the committed practitioner we all need when battling diet culture and all the confusion around what to eat, how to eat and how to feel comfortable in our bodies along the way.

Thank you Tracey for all you do 💙

Marcia Nazartchyk has been with me since 2020. Marcia has taught me so much as a clinician. She's wise behind her years, she's relatable, incredibly skilled and committed to her clients like no other.

“My approach to therapy is a very Rogerian style, in that I show up as a human connecting with another human, and providing my clients with unconditional positive regard through warmth, acceptance and empathy. I strive to meet clients where they are at, having their goals and intentions guide the therapeutic process.
​
Over my years as a therapist I have training in various therapeutic modalities and tend to use a combination of each as I see appropriate. I typically utilize strategies and concepts from CBT, DBT, interpersonal therapy and have recently become fully trained in EMDR therapy. I am also beginning my journey into learning more about EFT with hopes of integrating it into my practice with clients. ”
Marcia.

Her bright energy and contagious laughter is the uplifting energy we all need nowadays!

Thank you
