Dr. Joelle Kallio

Dr. Kallio is kind. She is a knowledgeable guide in helping a person understand themselves better plus a strong support in helping a person reach their goals.

Dr. Kallio is professional and warm. She listens and guide me. I have trust in her and she is helping me in a difficult moment of my life.

Dr. Kallio actually took interest in my life and allowed me to rant and rave about the going within it. She offers me insight into what goes on in my life which I could not see from the inside. She is a wonderful therapist and I hope she goes on to continue helping other people.

Well, I haven’t been involved with better help for very long but I do look forward to our meetings on Tuesdays my counselor is very attentive to the things I say and she just lets me ramble and then asks me things and makes me think. I have faith that we will have success. My counselor also gets back to me in a very timely manner and I like how she reiterates what we talked about because I know I’ll never remember!

So far so good really helpful.

She is the best and she saved my life and helped me find happiness and love.

Brilliant therapist. I could not have been provided with a more knowledgeable, friendly, calm, great listener. Short for now as Im currently in MH Hospital via Grief. Dr Joelle Kallio has always been there for me and once again is proving extremely supportive to me during my current bad times.

She is so supportive and kind.

Dr. Kallio is warm, kind and has a calmness that I find soothing. She has helped me to reframe some of my perspectives on tough experiences that I’ve dealt with and not in an “advice-giving” way, which I also appreciate. I feel very heard and understood by Dr. Kallio and would highly recommend her to anyone. I like the different homework/work sheets that she’s shared with me in certain topics as well!

Dr. Kallio came into my life at a point when I was struggling with low self-esteem, emotional dysregulation, lack of self-compassion, grief, and heartbreak.
Her kind and knowledgable approach helped me learn and navigate the DBT principles, learn to be more compassionate about myself, learn to recognize my own strengths, and develop a mindful practice.

I would recommend Dr. Kallio to anyone who is suffering through grief and emotional dysregulation. She made a big impact in my life and I am grateful for the work we did together.

Joelle is supportive and listens to me. I appreciate the time I have with her.

So far I have been very happy with the support I have been receiving (it’s been about a month I think). Dr. Kallio is extremely helpful and talks to me like I’m a human with feelings (which I thought would be hard given it’s online and not in person but I’m very impressed with all of this) and I enjoy having her company when we do our live chats. She responds in a timely manner (so far I have not needed to use the urgent option). I really enjoy being able to message her whenever I have time and not feel rushed to respond.

Dr. Kallio makes you feel like you are her only client. She is a great listener and offers practical solutions without any judgement or pressure. I feel very lucky to have had her as my counsellor. Thank you Dr. Kallio.

Dr. Kallio let me know that it is ok to have trouble handling the stress by myself and there are ways to make the situation better. She let me feel safe after a long period of being anxious and now I have some hope to be happy again.

Joelle is very helpful and great at what she does.

Calm, kind and patient. Growing greatly with dr kallio.

Dr. Kallio is great. Very receptive. Super supportive and helpful.

Dr. Kallio is godsent. Very supportive and competent.

Dr. Kallio has helped me so much. She listens without interruption and then advises with such great intention. She has said some profound things that have helped me to figure out where I am at and where I want to be. I highly recommend her.

She’s the best!

Dr. Kallio listens to me, I feel safe and comfortable sharing with her. She works with me on reaching goals I’ve set for myself - which is great to feel like I’m progressing!

Dr. Kallio has been wonderful to me.

Dr. Kallio has been absolutely incredible. I have not told a soul on this planet the things that I have told her, and she has never made me feel judged - only given me wonderful advice and help.

Joelle is genuinely empathetic and will listen to any stressful situations you are going through with care. She is great to work with and provides a stress-free, non-judgmental environment where you can feel free to open up.

Joelle is very supportive and does her best to offer suggestions to approach life happenings from a different angle. Her supportiveness is shown when she says she “feels like (I) am doing well overall.”

Dr. Kallio is great! She is a great listener and is really skilled at addressing and targeting the main point of my sometimes long-winded concerns/problems. She gives great advice, and everything she says is personalized to ME and my situation. I never feel like she is spouting out psycho-textbook babble. She has been very helpful!

Thank you so much for your assistance.

I love working with Joelle, she listens to all of my concerns, understands what I feel and why and helps me understand too. She is kind, friendly and flexible to meet when it suits. I couldn’t be happier with her. As a person who doesn’t trust easily, Joelle has quickly earned my trust and given me the support I truly needed and I am very grateful and glad to have her help.

Dr. Kallio was very attentive and listened carefully. Her responses were entirely appropriate to each subject that we discussed. She offered me help in a format that suits me well. I look forward to renewing our counselor/patient relationship when finances are less strained for me.

I love Dr. Kallio. She always has the right words to say and I always feel comfortable talking with her.

Dr. Kallio is so helpful. She's really great at listening to every concern that I have and addressing all of the points that I put forward. She is only interested in helping others and I love that about her. She isn't very forceful in her conversations, which I like. I know most therapists would just go straight for the break you down and build you up concept, but Dr. Kallio is different. We only explore areas that are uncomfortable to discuss if I want to explore those areas. I am so glad I was able to connect with her.

I have been working with Dr. Kalio now for the past couple weeks. I feel heard during our sessions. She’s attentive, responsive and that makes me feel as though she cares about my wellbeing. So far so great!

Dr. Kallio has helped me in so many ways. She has supported me and has always focused on what I want to work on and has provided me with so many great tools to be successful at what I want for my future. I have felt comfortable sharing anything and everything without feeling judged or that I should feel bad or guilty for how I feel.

She could be saving my life. That's as good as it gets. Thank you.

She is very lovely, she makes me feel better everytime I read her messages and everytime I write stuff down for her to read, it lifts a lot of weight from me and I always know that she will read them and respond, so I don’t have to worry. She is very understanding and knows how to write back in a way I am very comfortable with.

Very knowledgeable. Offers suggestions or worksheets, or ask questions to help aid in getting in touch with your feelings. Always responds quickly.
