Sarah Joy Covey is a Registered Psychotherapist who is open to working with a wide variety of issues including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, caregiver fatigue, burnout, existential questions, parenting, career and work challenges, life transitions, and interpersonal/relationship concerns, among others. I have an extensive background working with teens but also have an ongoing passion for working with adults of all ages and couples who are seeking support to restore intimacy and learn healthy conflict resolution. I offer electronic counselling services to provide convenience to those who are seeking help at a distance or for whom in-person appointments are a challenge to schedule and/or keep. While I use CBT and other common therapies regularly, I have a special enthusiasm for narrative and existential work and the incorporation of spirituality in clinical practice. Specifically, I am keen to support those with a Christian-faith background and am able to provide supports for spiritual growth and connection. I am keen to offer psychoeducational courses and psychotherapeutic groups and am open to working in alternate locations to accommodate particular group needs. I am also a competent speaker and workshop leader and welcome such opportunities with enthusiasm.
