Carlie Willimont

Many clients come into therapy feeling anxious, apprehensive, or overwhelmed—often unsure of
where to start or whether therapy can truly help. It’s common to feel like you should be able to
handle things on your own, which can make reaching out for support feel especially hard.

I strive to offer a warm, comfortable, and often light-hearted space where clients feel safe taking
each step of the therapy process at their own pace. I meet clients where they’re at, taking time to
understand their individual needs, what helps them feel safe and supported, and tailoring my
approach to each person.

Experience:
Carlie is a Registered Provisional Psychologist and a Yorkville University graduate with

to feel heavy to be meaningful, and strives to find balance, curiosity, and finding ease in
the everyday.

Over the past four years, Carlie has worked with children using a play therapy lens to
support concerns such as anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, ADHD strategies,
help children overcome fears, and navigate family dynamics and separations. Carlie
also works with adolescents and adults, focusing on anxiety, depression, self- esteem
and confidence work, attachment and relationship issues, emotional regulation, and
parenting issues.
