Vera Roncon, MA, C. Psych.
Thank you for visiting my webpage. If you are looking for help with depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, eating issues, OCD, and related problems, I may be able to help you.
About Me
As a Clinical Psychologist I have worked with adults and adolescents since 1993, to help them overcome their mental health struggles through individual and group therapy. I have undergraduate and graduate training in psychology (BA, MA) and am trained in evidence based therapies. I am licensed to provide services to individuals 16 years and older in the province of Ontario.
What to Expect
At our first meeting, we will review the reason for your seeking therapy, and I will gather information to help us understand how these issues have developed. This helps us formulate a plan to decide whether therapy would be suitable. If this is the case then we will make a plan as to how often to meet and what goals to work on. Each individual is different and therapy can last a few sessions or many months.
I work from a client-centred, collaborative approach drawing on my training in cognitive behaviour therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, acceptance - mindfulness based approaches, and interpersonal therapy. I use techniques that suit the client and do not adhere to a "one size fits all" philosophy. Some typical goals addressed are helping you develop awareness of how your thoughts and actions impact your emotions, and learn how to better manage and cope with negative thoughts and feelings. Some types of therapy (cognitive behaviour therapy for ADHD) may involve developing specific skills to improve daily functioning.
Services Provided
What I can help you with
Supervised Psychotherapy
I collaborate with other therapists and provide clinical supervision. Please view Jennifer Tiviluk's webpage to view a current psychotherapist who is practicing under supervision.
Fees
Psychological services are not covered under OHIP, but are covered under most private health insurance plans. My standard fee is $175 per hour session, however I do reserve a few spots for individuals that require a sliding scale. Please inquire about fees when scheduling an appointment.
