 RORY BATCHILDER, BSc, MEd, CCC                                                                       
     Canadian Certified Counsellor
                    
Instructed: Counsellor Training Institute.     
Certified:  Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Assoc. (CCPA).     
Interned:  Nova Scotia Hospital.  
 
Personal Statement: If you (or a loved one) have been experiencing distress you may benefit from counselling.    Clients work through emotions and troubling thoughts which interfere with their effective and joyful selves.       I nurture an environment which invites the creative involvement of a client’s inner and outer resources. When the “Wise Self” is connected with “Authentic power”, an unfolding process develops. Personal stories and goals become the foundation for our client-centred work together.

*************************************************************

Many of us sometimes need help to focus, plan, and carry through with our plans.  Please feel invited to accept my professional assistance to let go, relax, grow personally, and move forward.   I have studied and taught several forms of meditation and energy medicine.  Familiar with complementary/alternative healing principles.  Helping you to work through your grief/anger/anxiety/depression and live mindfully.
 
Therapeutic Approaches:  *   Person Centred Therapy  *  Cognitive/Behavioural Therapy   *  Dreams *  Solution Focused   *  Narrative   *   Drama/Art Techniques    *    Body/Mind    *   Transpersonal    *   
 
Couples: I use a system that helps couples learn to tune into themselves — their needs, feelings, and habitual tendencies.  This system provides a structured format for positive and safe communication of difficult issues.  Also teach assertiveness skills to prevent buildup of resentment, anger, and hopelessness.
 
Diverse background:  addiction recovery homes, victim services, pastoral care and chaplain services, meditation retreat centres, private practice, long term mental health care, and community health centres.
 
 Insurance Coverage:
Clients are provided with a receipt for insurance and tax deduction purposes. Counselling services are not covered by OHIP, but are covered by most extended health care plans.   
 
Please inquire with your health insurance provider regarding the details of your coverage. The category the therapy will fall under is “psychological services”.  Details to ask about:
          * the yearly limit,
          * who in family is covered,
          * max. session length,
          * verify that therapy by a CCPA certified therapist with Masters of Education (and supervised by a psychologist) is covered (usually is).
