Tamara Aleong, Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist

(She/Her Pronouns)

Hi there! My name is Tamara, and I am a registered social worker (RSW) seeing clients at the Healing Collective. I offer psychotherapy and ADHD coaching for adults.

Are you struggling with your routine or with completing daily tasks? I am passionate about helping clients develop practical coping skills, such as time management, prioritizing, and organization.

Perhaps you are looking for support because you are experiencing stress, dealing with anxious thoughts, or are struggling with intense emotions. Together we can identify strategies and skills for building mindfulness and regulating your emotions.

My approach varies depending on the client, and can range from action oriented (problem solving, developing coping strategies and life skills) to insight building (exploring emotions, processing life experiences). I provide a collaborative and warm therapeutic environment which will help us build a strong relationship to support you in meeting your goals.

Areas of Specialty:

–       ADHD

–       Anxiety

–       Depression

–       Stress Management

–       Working through complex emotions, such as shame

–       Parenting and Relationship Issues

My Background:

I completed an undergraduate degree in Psychology at the University of Waterloo and a Master of Social Work from the University of Toronto. I have additional training in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), and in providing postnatal support to parents. I have previously held the role of Mental Health Clinician in a university counselling centre, supporting artists and designers. 

When I am not seeing clients, I enjoy playing in the park with my kiddos, going on road trips, and reading. 

If you would like to book a free consultation to see if we are a good fit, please email me at tamara.aleong@gmail.com. I look forward to meeting you!
