We are now accepting clients in our new clinic.
We work with adults, teens, and children, individual and couples.
Examples of Therapeutic Services
Anxiety
Depression
ADHD & Learning Disabilities
I use research-informed approaches such as cognitive behaviour therapy, graduated systematic desensitization and exposure response therapy to treat anxiety disorders, including OCD. ​
Using varied exercises, clients learn mindfulness practices and self-soothing strategies to manage anxiety.
My main tool is the creation of a safe, warm, non-judgmental environment where clients can process their thoughts, fears, and challenges.
​
Together, we collaborate to problem solve, develop strategies, and engage in behaviour activation exercises to break the cycle of depression.
​
I use cognitive behavioural therapy, attachment theory, and acceptance commitment therapy in a developmentally informed manner.
Grief support
As a volunteer with Bereaved Families of Ontario for three years, I acquired many resources for supporting children, adults, and families through grief.
​
Trauma
My approach is informed by polyvagal theory.
In a calm, safe environment, clients learn how their nervous system works. I help clients change unhelpful ways of responding to threats and develop ways to regulate their nervous system through different states. ​
By working together, co-regulation occurs and clients develop new ways of coping with challenges.
I have both studied and lived the experience of parenting a child with ADHD and other learning disabilities.
​
Using a strength-based approach and through playful exercises and activities, I help clients to understand how their unique brain works. I explain to clients what executive functioning skills are and ways to develop these skills fully. I teach strategies to self-regulate emotions and behaviours.
Parenting Support
I draw on research evidence in developmental and educational psychology to inform my parent coaching. I collaborate with parents to provide strategies and psychoeducation related to their specific challenges.
In a warm and supportive environment, I can help you better understand how to meet the needs of your child or teen with ADHD, dyslexia, learning disabilities, or other challenges. Together we can make parenting more rewarding and enjoyable for you.
About Angela Howell-Moneta, R.P
I am a registered psychotherapist with a Masters of Education degree in Counselling Psychology and a Masters of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in Developmental and Educational Psychology. ​
​
I use research-informed treatment approaches to support children and adults as they experience mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, suicidality, self-harm, personal crises, or recovery from trauma. I have particularly trained to work with children, adolescents, and adults with ADHD, ASD, and other learning disabilities. Recently I completed an intensive certification in eating disorders. I also have training to support people who are experiencing complicated grief or trauma.
