Amy Vanderzyde

REGISTERED SOCIAL WORKER, M.Ed, MSW

Amy brings more than 10 years of experience to her work as a therapist, taking a holistic, collaborative, and strengths-based approach to supporting clients across the lifespan. She believes that creativity and meaningful connection are powerful tools for helping people identify their strengths, navigate challenges, and create positive, lasting change in their lives.

Amy is particularly passionate about supporting children, adolescents, parents, and families who are navigating emotional, behavioural, and relational challenges. She has extensive experience helping families through periods of transition and growth, whether those challenges involve parenting, family relationships, life changes, or personal well-being. Amy also has specialized training in supporting individuals and families through all aspects of the perinatal journey, including pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and perinatal mental health concerns.

Amy integrates a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches into her practice, including Art Therapy, Play Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT). As a holistic practitioner, she views mindfulness as an important part of healing and incorporates mindfulness-based strategies, visual reflection, and meditation to help clients build self-awareness, resilience, and emotional well-being.
