Whether you’re facing stress, burnout, workplace challenges, or the daily overwhelm of ADHD, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m a registered social worker and psychotherapist 

with a background in business leadership and advanced training in adult ADHD. I help professionals across Ontario find clarity, confidence, and calm—online and in-person in Oakville

Support for Mental Wellness

Even when life looks “fine” from the outside, it can feel overwhelming on the inside. You may be juggling responsibilities, relationships, and expectations—yet still feel anxious, disconnected, or unsure of yourself. Therapy can be a place to slow down, sort through the noise, and reconnect with what really matters to you.

Workplace Challenges

Work can be deeply fulfilling—but it can also be a major source of stress, anxiety, and exhaustion. I offer discreet, practical, and effective support so you can navigate the pressures of professional life with more clarity, calm, and confidence.

Adult ADHD Strategies

ADHD doesn’t end after childhood—and for many adults, it quietly shapes everyday life in frustrating ways. You may be bright and capable, yet still struggle with procrastination, distraction, emotional overload, or feeling constantly behind. It can impact your work, your relationships, your confidence, and your sense of control.

Judith Paterson

Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist

Welcome! I’m Judith Paterson, a registered social worker and psychotherapist dedicated to helping people find more balance, confidence, and calm in their lives.

My professional journey has been a unique one. After many years as a business leader, I shifted into the world of mental wellness, driven by a deep desire to support others through both personal and professional challenges.

I often work with folks navigating workplace issues or adult ADHD, but that’s just part of the picture. I’m here for anyone feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next step—whether it’s in work, relationships, or life in general. I bring a mix of practical tools, real-world insight, and a warm, light-hearted approach to help people create meaningful change.

In our sessions, I draw from Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and structured problem-solving. My goal is to help ease the struggle and create more space for meaning, fulfillment, and the things that matter most to you.
