She/Her Pronouns

Hello and welcome!

I’m a registered clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in providing psychotherapy to individuals navigating life’s challenges. I’m deeply passionate about helping people find meaning, purpose, and hope in their journeys. I have always been inspired by the courage and resilience in the stories people share, and it is a true honour to walk alongside them in their healing process.

Compassion, creativity, and curiosity are at the heart of my therapeutic work. I believe in a collaborative approach, where the relationship we build is central to fostering change. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel truly seen and heard, helping you recognize your inner strengths and unique wisdom to guide you in your life and challenges.

I hold an MSW from McGill University and a Bachelors of Music Therapy from Wilfrid Laurier University. In addition, I have specialized training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International, as well as advanced training in Ego State Therapy, Clinical Hypnosis, and Deep Brain Reorienting. I am also an EMDR Certified Clinician. My areas of expertise include complex trauma, grief, and perinatal mental health.

I approach psychotherapy from a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and attachment-based perspective, honouring the ways systems and social contexts impact our well-being. I draw on various modalities in a collaborative manner, always tailoring my approach to fit your unique needs. When possible, I incorporate creativity and the arts, weaving in my background in expressive arts therapies. 

I currently offer both online and in-person sessions. Please connect with me: hello@caitlinbeukema.ca to set up an initial consultation.

I look forward to meeting you!

In addition to her private practice, Caitlin regularly runs a 6 week perinatal mental health group:

This New Life: A 6 week Perinatal Group Therapy Program (Virtual). For mothers with infants 18months and younger.

This group has been developed to provide a space for new parents to discuss their own experiences in new motherhood. The transition to parenthood may be one of the biggest shifts one can experience in life. While exciting, it can often be riddled with challenges… some expected, some not. Once in the thick of it, parents often report overwhelm that can profoundly affect their mental health and wellbeing, with symptoms of depression and anxiety often being very common. 

This group is equal parts supportive and empowering, cathartic and connective. We hope to offer you a space (from the comfort of your home) to talk about all the ups and downs of new parenthood. Over six sessions, we will address themes including: Processing your story & Birth trauma, Identity and transitions, Isolation, Self-care & collective care, Changes & challenges in intimate relationships and partnerships, Family dynamics & communication, Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders, Parent-child attachment, Guilt & shame. 

Led by therapists who are also mothers, treatment interventions throughout the group include CBT, DBT, EMDR, Mindfulness, Self Compassion, Narrative Therapy and more.
