A Safe Place to GROW Your Practice
NEXT LEVEL GROWTH
Let's be honest! You are AMAZING at what you do? You provide IMPECCABLE SERVICE to your clients. You have MASTERED your skills. You serve from your HEART. You help others to TRANSFORM using your beautiful unique gifts. You conduct yourself with HONOUR and INTEGRITY. You have a pretty solid success & return rate with your CLIENTS. Your efforts have resulted in your many ACHIEVEMENTS. You have done everything that is required for you to be SUCCESSFUL.
YET SOMETHING IS MISSING...
You have already discovered that your in-session client work is only a fraction of what is required to be successful in private practice. In order to provide impeccable service you need to serve your clients as well as manage all aspects of their service - like keeping their records up-to-date, billing, and staying on top of scheduling/rescheduling appointments. On top of all these tasks, you have to market yourself to potential new clients, keep track of all your clients paid/unpaid invoices for accounting purposes, maintain your licensing requirements, etc. Keeping all of the information needed to maintain your practice can be daunting and cumbersome. Sorting and organizing materials can utilize precious time. In the end, all of the time freedoms that you thought you'd enjoy in private practice have been swallowed up by all of the time you spend managing your business. Leaving you with little time or energy left over for you to truly GROW what BRINGS YOU JOY in your practice. Instead, the workload you carry can leave you feeling alone and unsatisfied. A recipe for BURNOUT!

This dedication to training has been successful in growing talented Psychologists working in various capacities within the world. These wonderful people are backed with our full confidence in their dedication, clinical skills and judgment. Her passion for training led Dr. Lynne M.

True to our holistic approach, Aspirations Inc. has progressively brought in the use of essential oils to support therapeutic processes. A full year of development launched our Aspiring Healthy & Whole Communities Initiative that marked our 10 year anniversary, complete with a new line of apparel in support of mental health awareness. Dr. Lynne M. Kostiuk was at the forefront of technology with a decade of dedicated development before launching her proprietary practice management software, Aspire Practice, in 2020. Our next level of system development has brought forth the launching of Aspirations Inc. Store, which will sell various wellness products, as well as our mental health branded apparel.

Rest Assured that our next developments will be infused with the excitement and progressive thinking that has been demonstrated thus far...who knows...you just may be a part of it!?!

What Makes Us Different
Our Practice has been established since 2008. We have rooted ourselves in community because our heart and integrity is in serving people, as we are people...in the community. We are from humble roots that share a connection to the humanity that underlies the pain, suffering and fear that interfere with personal growth. We believe in the beautiful unique essence of each person. We see the beauty even when our clients cannot. We hold space as a given human right to honour our clients as they are in their BEING. We believe in our profession and the services we offer. We have seen the power of change. We delight in witnessing the powerful transformations within our clients as they too begin to understand, see, and hold beauty in their own hearts - creating and living an integral and purposeful life.
Acknowledging that in our professional role, we integrate our own beautiful self and all of our gifts to hold witness to, hold space for, and hold promise of possibilities for those we serve.
We are living the life that we teach. We walk beside our clients - with open hearts and open minds - knowing that we too are fallible in our human-ness - that we too have experienced pain and suffering - believing that our experiences provide the opportunity to shape our being in this world.
We hold ourselves in humble reserve as we witness the beauty in our clients, hold a vision of wholeness for them even when they cannot see. We wait and wander with patient reverence - until bit by bit the transformation unfolds.
