Hello, my name is Nick Eakins (he/him), I am a registered psychotherapist in Dundas, ON. I offer client-directed services and take a collaborative approach to counselling. My aim is to support and encourage each client along their own journey to self-awareness in a way that is adaptive, authentic, and free of judgement. I trust in the power of the therapeutic relationship; my duty is to listen intentionally, to express empathy and unconditional positive regard, and to offer appropriate, compassionate, and responsible clinical guidance.
I draw from Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Solutions-Focused, and existential psychotherapy, to inform a collaborative examination of personal valuations and recognized strengths, and to effectively implement realizable strategies.
My eclectic work and life experiences reflect an array of interests and a genuine passion for meeting people, with diverse backgrounds and from all walks and stages of life. I am interested in working with adolescents, adults, couples, and welcome clients from the LGBTQ+ community. If you would like to explore ways we might work together, please reach out.
