PSYCHOTHERAPY
Welcome to Awkward Owl Psychotherapy
A SPACE FOR TRUST, INSIGHT, AND ACCEPTANCE
Therapy is a lot of things, but first, and perhaps most importantly, it is a safe relationship.
It is within this framework of safety and connection that we are able to turn toward our dark spaces and bring curiosity, warmth, and acceptance to what we find there.
Together we explore the feelings, fears, and beliefs that are leaving you feeling caught in distress, overwhelm, and loneliness. By gently bringing these experiences into the room, you are able to develop insight, agency, and the capacity for choice over different perspectives, behaviours, or reactions.
This type of work not only offers to relieve day-to-day distress, but offers the possibility of a fundamental change in how you feel about yourself, others, and your place in the world.
Hi, I'm Brittany Dagenais (she/her) and I'm a
Registered Psychotherapist-Qualifying
I absolutely love the work I do with clients! I work with individuals of all genders and sexualities to find relief from deeply held distress and pain.
At the heart of my therapeutic philosophy is the fundamental belief that healing happens within relationships, not within aloneness, and the therapeutic relationship is an important part of change in therapy. Yes, insight and skills are important, but it is warmth, care, and acceptance that first create the stable foundation needed for change.
