Experience Your Life from a Newer, Stronger and More Positive Perspective

Family and Child Counselling Services provides you with a safe and confidential environment in which you can experience a non-judgemental and supportive approach to your individual and family counselling sessions. That is an essential part of making therapy successful. I work hard to create that environment for you. 

Divorce Mediation & Counselling

“We’re separated and filing
for divorce, how do we keep our relationship civil?”

Co-parenting

“How do I still be a parent to my children when I am divorced?”

Marriage Counselling

“We argue all the time. We
      really need some help.”

Individual Counselling

“I feel stressed, anxious and angry most of the time and
it’s negatively affecting my life.”

Divorce Counselling for Children

“My child has not been as happy, secure or energetic since my divorce.”

Child Therapy

“My child is defiant and acting out. I don’t know what to do anymore.”

With over 28 years of experience and training as an individual, family and child therapist, I offer dedicated, caring and objective counselling that will help you overcome your immediate difficulties and give you the skills you need to conquer future challenges. I specialize in family (including couple) and child issues.

Testimonial

My family and I saw Dorete Sivkin for about 1 year, that was the best money I ever spent. My son who was 10 at the time was experiencing tremendous anxiety and as an only child he was dominating our home. She not only helped him overcome his anxiety and fears, we learned as parents how to discipline our child properly. She has a firm yet gentle nature about her. We tried other therapists, but she ranks #1.

Isn’t it time you gave yourself a real chance to succeed?

We work on the whole issue, not just the symptoms. Working with several counselling theories and tools, you lead the sessions until we find a process that works best for you.

Asking for help doesn’t mean there is something wrong with you. It means that you recognize a distressing issue or change in yourself, or a family member, and you know it’s interfering with living the life you want. Acknowledgement shows strength, not weakness.
