Asia Green (she/her) is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a Master’s of Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. She has an Undergraduate Degree in Applied Science and Human Behaviour from McMaster University, and a Postgraduate Certificate in Mental Health and Disability Management, from Mohawk College. Asia has a passion for connecting with the child and adolescent population (ages 7+), particularly those who identify as highly sensitive, who are experiencing anxiety and low self-esteem, and individuals who struggle with expressing their emotions in effective and healthy ways. She is skilled at supporting individuals who are struggling with traumatic grief and loss. This includes loss of a pet, family member or friend, as well as loss from sudden changes and life transitions.
Asia understands the importance of relationships within the home and outside of the home, particularly during adolescence. Asia hopes to offer a bridge between parents and children during challenging times. She is committed to helping her clients better understand themselves and their needs, and hopes to support parents to better understand and communicate with their children. Asia believes that everyone deserves a voice and she is available to help her clients with finding theirs so that they can: experience improvements in their relationships, establish healthy boundaries, develop effective coping strategies, and increase their confidence.
For young adults who find themselves in a place of readiness and transition, or within life changes, Asia aims to offer a supportive and non-judgmental space with her calm and genuine personality, in an effort to help her clients navigate adulthood. Asia believes that her journey in understanding her own bi-racial identity has allowed her to better empathize with the challenges that her young clients may face when exploring their sense of self.
Asia has experience with student mentorship at McMaster University, and has developed her Crisis Management competency by completing the ASIST Applied Suicide Interventions Skills training. She is also pursuing certification in "Brain Story" which is the focus on the deeper understanding of brain development/neuroscience and it's consequences on lifelong health. This is particularly relevant to her work with young clients and their parents.
When she is not meeting with clients, you can find her reading, enjoying time with her friends and family, traveling, and holding photoshoots of her sweet dog Daisy.
