Sherry Maxwell

Sherry Maxwell has a passion for people and considers it an honour and privilege when clients share their lives with her and allow her to walk with them on their personal journey. Her clients include individuals, couples and families with various challenges and needs. Her hope is that people she works with will feel safe and comfortable in sessions. This comes through in her therapeutic manner as well as the casual atmosphere she has in her office. She has a style that is varied as she attempts to match her approach with who the client is and what they need. Some of her approaches include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Guided Imagery, Dialetic Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Narrative Therapy. She began in private practice with a desire to help as many people as possible. With this in mind, she’s expanded her practice to include therapists with various areas of expertise including marriage, grief, children, geriatric counselling and special needs.

Her rich personal journey has included both the highs and lows of life. She believes this adds to her ability to understand and help those in their life situations. In addition to her vocation as a therapist, she is a wife and mother of two adult daughters and has twin grandsons and a granddaughter whom she adores. She loves the outdoors and time spent with her family.

Sherry holds a Master’s degree in counselling, and Bachelor degree in psychology. She is registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and is a certified member of the Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals – OAMHP.
