Monica Boulis

I believe in a relational and approachable style of treatment that is customized to client's unique needs. I provide therapeutic services to adults and youth (16+) struggling with complex trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues/interpersonal conflicts, codependency, grief and loss. I offer sessions in English, French, and Arabic. My approach involves leveraging clients' cultural and individual belief systems through warmth and humour to build a strong therapeutic relationship. I utilize several approaches including, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness-Based CBT, Interpersonal Therapy, and Solution-focused approach. I work with trauma from an attachment-based and sociocultural perspective, drawing from my training in a centre for Trauma and Addiction with veterans and first responders. Additionally, I have years of experience working in community and hospital settings as a rehab support worker, assisting clients with Motor Vehicle Accident Rehabilitation (MVA), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Chronic Pain, WorkPlace Injuries (WSIB) and refugees adjusting to their arrival.
