Therapists in Mississauga, ON

The majority of my clients are struggling with a unique cluster of symptoms that impact their ability to live life on their terms. Most are unaware of the ways our hormones, trauma and ADHD intersect, and too often we are poorly supported. In order for symptoms to shift, we need to address the many ways symptoms arise, and finding cohesive care can be challenging.

Are you different? So am I. I specialize in working with people who break the mold. This includes neuro-diverse adults (ADHD, Autistic, C-PTSD), chronically ill, 2SLGBTQ, and racialized people. Focusing on resiliency and emotional intelligence, I use evidence-based practices and creative interventions to use the wounds of the past as seeds for growth. Adverse childhood experiences, trauma, and relationship fractures disrupt our feelings of safety and trust. In order to thrive, we need to heal.

My heart is for those who are overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck, struggling, and disconnected. Your story has made you who you are, but it doesn’t have to define your future. I believe you are the expert on your experience and my role is to help you find yourself again. During my years working with survivors of intimate partner violence, I developed a passion for supporting people through their personal journey of growth and healing. As a mother of four teens and young adults with ADHD and ASD, I am dedicated to helping individuals and families understand neurodiversity and learn to flourish.

Dr. Engelbrecht ND RP is a leader in adult autism assessment and advocacy. She provides assessments for autism and co-occurring conditions such as ADHD, PTSD, and OCD. The diagnostic assessments are conducted remotely (for the client's comfort) using empirically validated, evidence-based psychometrics and clinically validated interview techniques, such as the ADOS. She co-founded Embrace Autism (embrace-autism.com), which is used worldwide to share current research on autism. She has worked with the autistic population for over 25 years.

Have you experienced trauma and now you struggle with anxiety, depression, dysregulation, addiction, grief or ADHD? Is it showing up in your day-to-day life, relationships or your work? Do you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated or burnt out by just making it through the day? Do you question if it’s possible to resolve trauma and wonder if therapy will actually help? Now more than ever, individuals are feeling uncertain about how to cope in healthier, more helpful ways, and how to actually process their trauma(s). I believe it shouldn’t be so hard to feel safe, secure, and stable, and reach your full potential.

I'm glad you're here, taking the first brave steps towards healing. I know it can be overwhelming at the beginning. But if you'll let me I'd really like to join you on your journey to feeling better about your life. My style is eclectic (using several methods) because I believe therapy should be tailored for every individual. I want to make your healing & self discover experience all about you, not a system. You're in charge of how fast we go, where we go & when you need to rest. I simply journey beside you as a trusted source of perspective & insight. Helping to reframe or see an issue from a different view point.

Seeking professional counselling is a sign of mental health. It indicates that through awareness you have realized that you want more functionality and integration in your life.

Relationships are hard. Both with ourselves and with the people we love the most. I can help you with these issues to develop a healthy relationship with yourself (working through trauma, addiction, anxiety, etc), and others (developing boundaries, self-respect, and assertiveness). I don’t just offer a listening ear, but I provide consistent, authentic, and transparent feedback so that you know who you are in the world and develop a consciousness to thrive past your limitations

Are you feeling depressed, anxious or overwhelmed? Do you think that life has not been fair and you suffer from emotional pain/guilt? Are you looking for answers/solutions for your mental or physical illness? For 20 years I have been working with clients helping them with their unique life story. My therapy opens up the understanding of physical/mental disorder and integrates what has been rejected in your life. One client understood the circumstances that manifested a tumor and decided to continue her life without it. She actually started to appreciate her life and stopped blaming her parents for her upbringing.

Do you find yourself feeling like your whole world has turned upside down after a breakup, no matter what you do? You’re someone who values connection and intimacy, but still find yourself overwhelmed by unbearable pain, feeling lost, and questioning your worth.

You’re ready to learn ways to move on so you can feel more at peace. Most of all, you’re ready to reconnect with yourself and rebuild your self-esteem. I want to help you get there.

It takes courage to ask for help! So you have been grappling with depression, anxiety, loneliness, or emptiness. Our modern world does not help us understand what it means to be human. We become overwhelmed by relationship challenges and moral dilemmas, feeling lost and lacking meaning. Most of my clients (including couples) are interested in exploring the more profound questions in life. I can offer you a neutral, receptive space to explore your consciousness and the felt-sense experience in your body using a trauma-informed and whole-person approach. The implications of trauma are immense: physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Life will throw unexpected curve balls. It's those times when you need someone to talk to most. I am honored to be able to share a brave and safe space to work with individuals and their struggles.
