My name is Wendy Hunter and I provide counselling services through my private
practice, In Support Of Children Counselling. I work with families in
Collingwood, Wasaga Beach and throughout Simcoe County. I teach children, teens,
parents, and families effective strategies and coping skills to enrich their lives and
navigate challenges with confidence and hope. My own life experiences are similar to
many of my clients. I remember the people that helped my family, when I was young,
and I wanted to give back when I grew up. Their support, empathy, compassion, and
impact are why I became a Child Counsellor and Parent Coach and ultimately a
Registered Psychotherapist.
My career has always been rooted in working with and supporting children and their
families. I worked as an Early Childhood Educator, Resource Teacher, Parent Educator,
and Outreach Worker in Simcoe County for many years before returning to school as a
single parent and launching a career as a Registered Psychotherapist. In 2012 I started
my private practice.
Today I provide support and education to children, parents and families who are
dealing with anxiety, depression, loss and grief, ADHD, learning disabilities and trauma
among other issues. I teach children and teens how to cope, manage emotions, and
problem solve. My goal is to build self esteem and resilience in my clients and their
families.
