About Us

Anneliese Mack

OWNER, FERN CREEK PSYCHOTHERAPY

Registered Psychotherapist

I have one guiding principle:

“Don’t make it worse.”

Sounds ridiculous, right? This seems like therapy 101.

My life experiences led me to understand that as I reached out for help in my early years – my therapy experiences left me feeling invalidated. I wasn’t heard and I wasn’t believed.

I knew then, that I didn’t want anyone else to feel worse after seeking help. I needed to offer a framework to validate people’s experiences and be the ears, voice, and help they needed. I knew that the first step with my clients and clients working with my team was always going to be: “Don’t make it worse.”

In my 12 years as a therapist, I’ve learned that healing starts with making a genuine connection with a person who can listen and hear another human being in their struggle; to build trust and offer a safe space and the right tools to help you heal.

I consider it an honour to be invited into people’s lives, and I’d consider it a privilege to be a support as you work towards a more whole and fulfilling future.

Our Guiding Principles

You Are Not Broken

There is nothing to be fixed because when you are seen and heard, the therapy process will enable and empower you to incorporate your past with your present in a way that permits you to live life to the fullest.

You Deserve Care

No matter your struggles, you deserve care and compassion. We want to get to know you and build trust so we can get some work done. When you feel safe in your environment, you can be honest and start making the changes that will help you heal.

You Can Heal

We have no control over the circumstances in our lives, but we can choose the meaning we attribute to our experiences. Through listening and gently exploring your story, together we can build new narratives full of possibility.
