My Clients Say
I retired a few years ago after having spent more than 30 years of service with the Canadian Forces. I quickly found myself struggling due to several events that occurred during my career. Recognizing that I needed support, I became a patient of Mrs Janet Theobald who helped me to slowly turn things around. Over the past few years, Janet has proven to be an outstanding psychotherapist who has listened to me, guided me and provided me the tools that I needed. This has had a direct impact not only on my mental health but also on my relationship with my family. Mental health recovery is a long journey but I feel confident that with Janet's assistance, I will become a better husband and father.
