My Practice

Two people on a video call (Icon)

I offer 50-minute individual online counselling sessions,

more than anything, this is a space where you don’t have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or hold it all together.

You can show up exactly as you are, even if you’re unsure what you’re feeling or where to begin. Together, we move at your pace. We gently explore what’s been weighing on you, what feels stuck, and what you’ve been carrying on your own for too long. My role is to support you in making sense of your experience, with care, curiosity, and without judgment.

 

 

 

How therapy can support you

How counselling can support you

Not everyone comes to therapy because something is “wrong.” Sometimes, it’s because you’re ready to understand yourself more deeply. Together, we explore the patterns, beliefs, and experiences that shape how you relate to yourself and others.

  • You develop a clearer sense of who you are and what you need

  • You begin to trust yourself and your decisions more fully

  • You relate to yourself with more kindness and less self-criticism

  • You feel more confident expressing yourself and setting boundaries

  • You create changes that feel aligned with who you truly are

Growth doesn’t mean becoming someone new, it’s about reconnecting with yourself in a more honest and compassionate way.

Online Sessions: therapy from the comfort of your own space

If coming into an office feels difficult, or if you simply prefer the comfort and privacy of your own space, online therapy can offer a flexible and accessible way to begin.

Sessions take place over secure video, allowing you to connect from wherever you feel most at ease, whether that’s your home or another quiet, private space.

Even through a screen, therapy can be a deeply meaningful and supportive experience. What matters most is that you feel safe, heard, and able to show up as you are. Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting. We can begin with a conversation and take it from there.

If this feels like the right time, you’re welcome to reach out to book a session or ask any questions.

**I believe mental health is a basic right and counselling should be accessible to everyone. At Ana Atem Counseling I offer a limited number of slots for people who are struggling financially to afford counseling. Please get in touch with me to see how I can help you prioritize your wellbeing and have counseling accessible to you.

Extended health insurance

Most Extended health benefits cover counselling services, such as Sun Life, Canada Life, Pacific Blue Cross, Alberta Blue Cross, GroupSource, ManuLife, Green Shield and Equitable Life of Canada.

 

I encourage clients to contact their extended health benefits provider to see if services from a Registered Professional Counsellor (RPC) or Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC) are covered by their plans and how the reimbursement process works. I provide clients with an invoice after each session that can be submitted to insurance providers for reimbursement.
