Important News
To our valued clients,
Dr. Paulette Laidlaw would like to share an important announcement regarding her practice. After many rewarding years serving the First Responder community, Dr. Laidlaw has made the decision to downsize her practice and relocate to Northern Ontario later this year. While this decision was not made lightly, it reflects both personal and professional priorities at this stage of her life. As part of this change, Dr. Laidlaw will be reducing her caseload and reviewing ongoing treatment arrangements with current clients.
Dr. Laidlaw, staff and therapists are committed to ensuring that any changes to client care are handled thoughtfully and with appropriate planning. Our priority throughout this process is to ensure that each client receives appropriate support and continuity of care. We encourage you to contact the office with any questions you may have about this transition. If you would prefer to reach out directly to your therapist, their contact information has been added below their names on this website.
