Dr. Vanessa Huyder
I am a registered Clinical Psychologist (she/her/hers) with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. I received my PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Waterloo and completed my one-year pre-doctoral residency training at London Health Sciences Centre Children’s Hospital and the Child and Parent Resource Institute in London, Ontario. I have also held a position as a Clinical Psychologist at Vanier Children’s Mental Wellness specializing in trauma, mood, anxiety and neurodevelopmental differences and as a School Psychologist at the Thames Valley District School Board. I also hold an adjunct faculty position at the University of Western Ontario where I am involved in the training and supervision of Clinical Psychology PhD students and I was the Child and Adolescent Track Co-Coordinator for the London Clinical Psychology Residency Consortium.
I am passionate about working with clients and their surrounding communities and contributing to the training of new psychologists. My goal is to provide better access to mental health services that are holistic, equitable, and meet and respect the client’s goals and values. In addition, I enjoy working with my team members, Canelita (Lita) certified Assisted Therapy Dog with Companion Paws and Franklin, in-training-to-be a certified Assisted Therapy Dog, to provide supports for clients when appropriate.
At Hunter Psychology, I am providing supervision to Clinical Psychology PhD student(s) from the University of Western Ontario and have expertise working with children, adolescents and adults presenting with anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, and neurodevelopmental differences (e.g., Autism). I offer an evidence-based treatment approach that is tailored to meet individual goals and needs (e.g., cognitive behaviour therapy, cognitive processing therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy skills, mindfulness-based approaches). I also integrate knowledge of attachment theory and circle of security intervention.
