Social Worker (MSW)
Rae Morris Counselling
Hamilton, Ontario, L8E 0G3
Salam and welcome! I am an individual and family therapist, providing therapy in Ontario and British Columbia. I am a first-generation immigrant settler. I have worked in the social work field in various capacities for eight years, supporting parents, youth and families in navigating social systems and exploring their psycho-social-spiritual needs. I offer therapy in English and Arabic for individuals and families.
I work alongside youth and adult clients to explore mental health challenges, couple and family relationships, life transitions, neurodivergence, and alleviating the impact of oppressive social structures on mental wellbeing.
In sessions with me, we will get curious about your values, beliefs and unique human experience. I will support you in identifying your strengths, fostering self-acceptance and self-compassion as you navigate life’s transitions and challenges. Together, we will explore the underlying emotions and/or unmet needs of your behaviours, thoughts and anxieties that may no longer be conducive to your growth. We will collaboratively identify more helpful strategies that meet your needs and honour your present self.
My method is integrative and incorporates elements of emotionally focused therapy, solution-focused therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy and attachment theory; specifically tailored to meet each individual client’s values, needs, and strengths. My work is grounded in social justice and culturally-affirming perspectives and takes a person-in-environment approach.
I invite you to schedule a free consultation with me to explore your goals and how I can support you. I look forward to connecting with you, Inshallah!
