Hello, I am Arynne Boyes, the owner of Boyes Psychotherapy. I am passionate about providing non-judgmental, supportive, and accessible treatment plans for all of my clients.

Our Services

Arynne Boyes    BSc., MACP, RP


Through my practice, I offer a warm, empathetic, and compassionate approach to counselling. I work collaboratively with clients to help them achieve the goals they set for their healing journey. With a non-judgmental mindset, I recognise that each individual’s path is unique and shaped by the personal experiences that have brought them to this point. My goal is to empower clients by fostering confidence and resilience, supporting them in reaching their therapeutic goals.

I utilise an integrative and trauma-informed approach to therapy, drawing on techniques from Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and other trauma-focused practices. This flexible approach allows me to tailor my methods to meet the specific needs of each client. No therapeutic relationship is alike - we will collaborate to build a treatment plan that works best for you and your unique goals.

I have completed a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and obtained a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Psychology from Northeastern University in Boston, MA. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO - #13757). I am a member with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA- 11245847).

Creating a safe, supportive, and welcoming environment is central to my practice. I strive to help clients feel comfortable exploring both past and present challenges, and work to build a strong, collaborative therapeutic alliance. Together, we embark on a path toward healing and positive change.

FAQs

What is Psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy is a treatment for emotional, mental, or psychological issues that involves talking with a trained therapist to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Its purpose is to help individuals gain insight into their emotions, build healthier coping skills, and navigate challenging life experiences or mental health struggles.

How do I know if therapy is right for me?

Therapy is for everyone! Some individuals seek therapy to work through challenging life situations or traumatic experiences, while others seek to better understand themselves and develop a stronger sense of resilience and overall well being. The supportive environment therapy provides can be remarkably helpful in working towards these goals.

What can I expect during a session?

Sessions will take place either in-person or virtually through the secure and confidential video platform Jane. Further information about confidentiality will be addressed during the intake process and is clearly outlined in your consent form. During sessions, we will focus on developing your therapy goals and exploring your lived experiences.

What is your cancellation policy?

Your scheduled session time is reserved just for you. Cancellations made within the 24-hour period before a scheduled session, or no shows, will result in full session fees remaining due.

Do I need a referral from my doctor?

You do not need a referral to make an appointment for therapy. However, some insurance providers require an individual to obtain a referral letter from their primary physician in order to reimburse you. Please check your provider's policy so that you may plan accordingly.

Do you accept insurance?

We encourage you to verify with your insurance provider prior to our initial session together that psychotherapeutic services are covered under your extended healthcare plan. Individual insurance plans may vary based on the provider. Boyes Psychotherapy does not provide direct billing services. Instead, you will be issued a receipt with all necessary information for reimbursement by your provider.

Treatments & Fees

Our Therapy Approaches

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

A therapeutic approach that focuses on helping individuals develop the skills necessary for management of intense emotions, the improvement of relationships, and the creation of healthy coping mechanisms. DBT aims to help individuals create a balance between accepting themselves as they are and making changes that improve their lives.

Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS)

A therapeutic approach that is founded on the concept that each individual has an internal system of “parts” that represent different aspects of their personality, experiences, and emotions. IFS therapy is used to help individuals work towards recognising, understanding, and healing these parts. Individuals may then begin to move toward greater self-compassion, emotional regulation, and integration.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy (MBT)

A therapeutic approach that focuses on integrating mindfulness practices, like breath work and meditation, with traditional talk therapy to help individuals become more aware of their thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations without becoming overwhelmed. MBT emphasises the practice of being present in the moment without judgement. This therapeutic approach can be helpful for treatment of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and chronic pain as it strengthens emotional regulation and resilience.

Trauma-Focused Care

Trauma-focused practices recognise the widespread impact of trauma on individuals and seeks to create a safe, supportive environment for therapeutic healing. It is based on the understanding that trauma can affect a person’s physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Trauma focused care is not just about treating the individual trauma itself but also about creating a therapeutic environment that fosters safety, trust, and empowerment.
