Volpone Counselling and Consulting Services

Adelle Volpone, MSW, RSW

Thanks for stopping. It is great that you are taking the first step towards your own wellness. It can be a scary step yet you are here-change can begin now!
Many people reach out for counselling because they are feeling anxious, stressed and overwhelmed. Or they may be feeling stuck in old ways of being, unmotivated or they may be experiencing challenges with parenting or in their relationships. If you can relate to any of these, then we are here to support you.
Juggling multiple roles in our fast-paced society is difficult which can lead to strained relationships with the people we care about most. Our current challenges often stem from our past experiences and working through these with a skilled therapist can help you live a balanced life.
I am Adelle, the founder of Volpone Counselling and Consulting Services which is a safe place where people's individuality and identities are always respected. I am a Registered Social Worker in Ontario with over eighteen years of experience in the counselling field as a therapist, supervisor and manager working with children, youth, adults, couples and families. I am also a mom to two teens and can relate to the difficulties of parenting in today's modern culture.
I practice from an anti-oppressive, non-judgmental framework and always work collaboratively with clients taking into account their life experiences and strengths. I would love the opportunity to support you on your journey.
I am currently providing counselling through video or telephone. Please call for a FREE 20 minute consultation to see if I am the right counsellor for you and to further discuss my qualifications.
Volpone Counselling and Consulting Services is NOT a crisis service. If you are in crisis, please call 911 or go to your nearest hospital.
