Katherine McNichol

I’m Katherine, a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and founder of Blue Mind Mental Health Services, a virtual private practice based in Ontario. I offer individual and group clinical supervision to RP (Qualifying) registrants and Registered Psychotherapists working toward independent practice or looking for ongoing clinical support.

 Before transitioning into psychotherapy, I spent 6 years working in Intensive Behavioural Intervention (IBI) and Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) with children and families, and have extensive experience working in crisis settings. 

I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology and have been practicing psychotherapy for 8 years. My clinical specializations include trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, couples therapy, burnout, and boundaries and self-esteem. I hold specific training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

I also understand the unique pressures of building a practice from the ground up. If you’re an RP (Qualifying) working toward independent registration, or a newer therapist navigating private practice for the first time, I can offer supervision that addresses both the clinical and the practical realities of this work — caseload management, ethical decision-making, working with complex presentations, and finding your footing as a clinician

I offer both individual and group supervision, held virtually to accommodate therapists across Canada. Group supervision is a great option for therapists who want the added dimension of peer learning alongside clinical guidance.

I am currently accepting supervisees. If you are interested in supervision please don’t hesitate to reach out. Before agreeing to any supervision agreement we will meet for a brief consult to ensure we are the right fit for one another.
