Cheryl LeMay

Social Worker/Therapist

Have you been worrying a lot or feeling more stressed than usual? Maybe you have felt easily irritated or overwhelmed lately. You don’t have to struggle alone. I can help you explore your thoughts, feelings and patterns of behaviour. I will also help you learn new coping skills so that you can manage and feel better. Taking care of your mental health is just as important as taking care of your physical health.

How I Work

I help clients identify what is affecting them within all different areas of their lives, as well as their options for making things better or solving the issues altogether. I work with clients to create steps toward making a happier, healthier life.

My Story

I am a therapist for many reasons. When I see someone struggling, I genuinely want to help. It’s a way for me to show compassion, empathy and to support people. I am human and have struggled at times. I feel that my experiences help me to understand how my clients are feeling.

Outside the Office

I am usually busy with my two children, 2 dogs and fifteen plants and counting. When I have down time I love listening to music, singing at the top of my lungs (when alone) and working on a project such as painting or building something. I love doing anything outdoors, especially in warm weather. In the summer you can find me swimming in a lake. I find water relaxing and grounding. I also love attend comedy shows and watch funny movies. I find laughing to be a great stress reliever.
