Hi! My name is Kelsey Vande Ven and I’m a registered social worker with clinical experience in child welfare and mental health. My education includes an Honours undergraduate degree in Social Work with a minor in psychology. In addition, I have obtained a certificate in cognitive behavioural therapy. Therefore, I have an extensive knowledge on how CBT can be utilized to improve our cognitions.

I believe that we all struggle at times and I’m here to walk beside you in your times of struggle. I have worked with adults and children that have difficulty with parenting, addiction, mental health, and trauma. I want to help support families in creating balance, stability, positive communication and overall well-being. I provide a non-judgmental, safe space to work collaboratively and effectively.

In my spare time, you’ll find me playing sports, being outdoors or spending time with my friends and family. I believe self care and informal positive support systems are paramount in maintaining our mental health and implemented in my overall therapeutic approach.

I look forward to supporting you and your family the best way I can!
