No matter who you are, where you’re from, how you think, or who you love, we believe you should be uniquely YOU!
Our clients come from all walks of life, and so do we. We work with great counsellors from a wide variety of backgrounds because we fully believe that it makes our clinic stronger, and because it ensures that all of clients feel welcomed.
Chatrath Counselling Centre is committed to creating a diverse clinical environment. We will continuously address issues related to equity-seeking groups that include, but are not limited to, those represented by race, colour, religion (or non-religion), gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, neurodiversity, national origin, socioeconomic status, genetics, disability, or age, you are welcome here. In the spirit of reconciliation, we will also strive to develop and enhance existing Indigenous relationships.
We believe equity, diversity, and inclusion is about creating a culture that embraces the uniqueness of individuals, representative of our unique Canadian population.
Our goals are to foster a diverse and inclusive environment by continuous and active engagement of all counsellors to remove barriers faced by equity-seeking groups.

Hello my name is Patricia (Patty). My area of experience has been working in crisis support services with survivors of domestic abuse. I have a wealth of knowledge regarding the cycle of abuse, safety planning, and the effects of trauma.
Life is in a constant state of changes and can throw many surprises at us, and can at times feel overwhelming. While we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations.
Individual counselling sessions are tailored to suit each clients’ need and comfort as we collaboratively work together to meet your specific counselling goals.
Specializations in individual therapy include stress management (work related, life transitions, relationship), anxiety, panic attacks, trauma and abuse, depression, identity and self-esteem, and grief and loss.
This service is a favourite among many of our clients, as it is often times one of the keys to a happier, healthier life for both children and parents. Improving a child’s ability to self-regulate with improved coping skills often leads to a more harmonious home environment and positive school experience.
Working together in sessions with both the child and their parent/caregiver, we will build a coping skills toolkit. Big feelings will be explored and a variety of different coping skills will be introduced and practised. Parents will become confident as their child’s self regulation coach and children will finish sessions with an individualized coping skills tool kit that they can use anywhere.
Also offered in a group setting of ten sessions twice a year
Vulnerability, communication, trust, and intimacy can be challenging areas within relationships. Sessions will focus on three key areas. First, to seek to uncover relationship interaction patterns using a family systems approach. Second, identify individual attachment profiles and explore how those attachment profiles impact relationship interaction. Third, enhance communication effectiveness.
Whether in the early stages of your relationship or in the seasoned years taking the time to visit and understand these three areas can bring you increased connection and contentment within your relationship.
