I’m Doré Schubert, founder of Serein Therapy, a virtual practice dedicated to supporting people navigating complex life transitions. I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) and graduated with a Master's of Arts in Counselling Psychology (honours). I built this practice to create a space where therapy feels safe, validating, and practical because you deserve more than generic advice or “one-size-fits-all” solutions.
My approach is flexible and person-centered, meaning I meet you where you are, adapt to your goals, and give you tools that actually help you navigate pain, stress, or life changes. I focus on buliding a trusting relationship where you feel safe to be vulnerable and heard.
I specialize in supporting people with chronic illness, intellectual disability, and major life transitions, including those adjusting to new diagnoses or living with long-term pain. If you’re looking for a therapist who understands what it’s like to manage life and health simultaneously, who validates your experience, helps you notice patterns, and grow in a meaningful way, you’re in the right place.
Please note that a minimum of 24 hours’ notice is required for any appointment cancellation or rescheduling. Appointments missed or changed with less than 24 hours’ notice may be subject to the full session fee.
