NANCY FALLS
Psychotherapist
MEET NANCY
I am a registered psychotherapist in private practice with over 25 years of clinical experience. I provide individual psychotherapy to adults and youth struggling with a variety of mental health issues. I have extensive experience working in a Children’s Mental Health environment conducting assessments and providing treatment to children and youth who have experienced child all forms of child maltreatment, especially those who have been sexually abused. I also work with children and youth who have engaged in sexually harming behaviours conducting comprehensive assessments, individualized treatment, group treatment, and family reunification after sibling sexual abuse.
Over the years, I have engaged in training in a number of modalities and approaches. As our knowledge and understanding of trauma continues to evolve, I strive to remain current and continue learning through many professional development opportunities. As a client centered therapist my belief is that each of us has within us all that we need to move our lives forward. I am a certified Focusing Oriented Therapist and Coordinator with The International focusing Institute (TIFI), as well as currently serving as a member of the International Leadership Council of TIFI. I bring an embodied and experiential approach to my work with clients.
CLINICAL SERVICES OFFERED
TRAINING & CONSULTATION
Online or In-Person
One of Nancy’s passions has been to provide training and support to encourage professionals to undertake the challenging work with clients who have experienced trauma or children and youth who have engaged in sexually harming behaviours. Over the past 15years, Nancy supported two children’s mental health organizations, to develop training institutes aimed at building capacity in Ontario specifically focused on these client groups. Being part of the Clinical Collective allows Nancy an opportunity to continue to provide support and encourage more professionals to engage in this work. Nancy also provides consultation and training to professionals in various sectors including children’s mental health, hospital-based programs, child welfare, and education. She has presented both locally and internationally in the areas of trauma, sibling sexual abuse, and adolescents who have engaged in sexually harming behaviour.
CLINICAL SUPERVISION
Online or In-Person
Nancy provides individual and group supervision to professionals. Nancy provides supervision to those professionals qualifying to become registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. She also provides clinical supervision and consultation to professionals working with children and youth who have experienced trauma or engaged in sexually harming behaviours. Nancy uses an experiential approach in her supervision helping clinicians achieve an embodied presence in their work to address what is happening “in them” when they are with their clients. She believes that intentionality is essential when working with clients, having a reason for every intervention and understanding case conceptualization from a trauma, attachment and developmental perspective.
