About Me
WHO AM I?
Welcome!! My name is Vicki Sydor. I am a registered clinical social worker and professional coach. I have a Masters Degree in Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University and I am registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers. I am a Neuro Linguistic Programming & Time Line Therapy® Master Practitioner and certified in hypnosis.
I have a background in psychiatry, EFAP counselling, crisis response, and Critical Incident Response. I have been helping individuals make positive changes in their lives for over 20 years. My areas of expertise include mild to moderate depression, anxiety, trauma, phobias, self-esteem, weight loss, body image, managing life transitions and stress management . I offer both in person and online counselling. In Person sessions are conducted in my Guelph office Online sessions are provided through PHIPA compliant encrypted video service, serving all communities in Ontario. Concerned that therapy may not be as effective online as it is in person? My experience with online counselling is that it is just as effective and possibly more so than in person as clients are able to participate from the comfort of their own home or office.
My services are covered by most benefits plans. And I offer a sliding fee scale.
How Can I Help?
Life can be challenging at times and we are all doing the best we can with the resources we have. Sometimes those resources just aren’t enough to get us through a difficult time and we need to reach out to someone who can help us acquire new resources and skills to live the wonderful life we are worthy of living.
Imagine if you could release old negative emotions and limiting beliefs that hold you back from living the life you want.
What if you could feel calm and confident?
Imagine feeling and knowing that you are good enough!!
What if you could have better relationships with friends and family?
Just imagine feeling lighter, laughing more and enjoying each day!
IF PAST COUNSELLING HASN'T HELPED
Have you tried to change things on your own, through self help books, or through counselling and still found yourself going back to old patterns? Ever wonder why this happens? You might even think it is just you. It's not just you. It's the approach.
Traditional "talk therapy" targets our analytical, logical conscious mind in order to bring about change. If our unconscious mind is not aligned with our conscious mind, it can be difficult to create that change since all our emotions, values and beliefs are held at the level of our unconscious mind and this is what drives our behaviour.
If cognitive based therapies have not worked as well as you would have liked, working at the level of the unconscious mind may be the solution. For change to happen, it must occur at the level of the unconscious mind. NLP, Time Line Therapy® and Hypnosis all work at the level of the unconscious mind.
