Meet William

Hello! My name is William Fitzgerald, and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). I previously received my Bachelor of Arts with an Honors Specialization in Kinesiology, and I am currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology. My academic background has provided me with a strong understanding of the mind-body connection, which I incorporate into my counselling approach by using therapeutic applications based on mindfulness. Along with mindfulness, I primarily utilize cognitive-behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and solution-focused therapy, as I prefer to focus on a client’s strengths. Throughout my professional career, I have worked with individuals with anger issues, anxiety, developmental and learning issues, stress from large life changes, confidence and self-esteem issues, depression, as well as sleep difficulties and nightmares.

 

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. I have four nieces, with two more on the way. In the summer, you can catch me swimming in the pool or playing volleyball, but in the winter, I am more likely to be on the couch watching Netflix or Disney+.

 

I am a friendly and outgoing individual and I strive to connect with my clients to create a comfortable environment. To do this, I emphasize active participation in the development of treatment plans and collaborate with clients to determine therapeutic goals. My personal goal is to help children, teens, and families develop their own coping strategies, which will thereby empower them and allow them to see their full potential.

 

I look forward to working together in the future!
