Anger Management Therapists in Mount Brydges, ON

I have provided psychotherapy, counselling and coaching since 1996. I have worked with a diverse population with many types of issues and challenges. My passion is helping individuals, couples and families to thrive; and helping leaders and organizations to excel. I provide a safe and confidential place where problems can be shared, solutions identified, barriers overcome, progress achieved and success celebrated. I primarily use client-centered, solution-focused and cognitive behavioural approaches.

Most of us men have been taught that we have to manage things by ourselves. To hide our feelings. Or we don't have feelings. Guess what that leads to? Anger, irritability, relationship issues, work problems, and trouble connecting with our kids, friends, and partners. Maybe drinking too much and checking out, too. Or cheating on our partner, because it's easier than trying to figure out what's going on at home. Maybe you don't even realize how bad things have gotten until your partner tells you that you "can't communicate", you're messing up, and now you have no idea what to do and you're defensive and confused.

Sometimes men are great at pretending everything's fine – even when life is falling apart. Trying to carry the weight of the world all by yourself is a sure path to depression, anger issues, self-medicating, lashing out, and increased stress and physical symptoms. Whether you're trying to figure out what your partner wants (what does she mean by "communicate better" anyway?), or you're needing to talk through personal, work, or family issues, I can help you get to a better place. If you're worried that you're the only one, don't. There is literally nothing you can tell me that I haven't heard or worked with before.

Reaching out to ask for help can be difficult but I am dedicated to helping clients feel comfortable in a therapeutic environment. I am a caring and compassionate listener who is committed to helping clients build on their individual strengths. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is essential in helping clients achieve their goals and improve their well-being. I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology degree, a BA with a major in Psychology degree, and a Child and Youth Work diploma with honours. I continue to work alongside supervisor Laurie Ponsford-Hill for support and guidance.

Mainly treat “self-regulation” problems: Social anxiety, shame/guilt, anger, depression; Overdependencies; Intimacy-sexuality, Communication; Identity-Personality issues;Selfcare.

Looking for a specialized clinic just for kids and teens? London Sensory Therapy is a fun, safe, and soothing space, different from the typical 'chair and table' therapy center. Our clinic offers a ball pit, swing, oversized bean bag chair, glowing bubble tube, fiberoptic lights, weighted animals etc. all to help promote a positive counselling experience for your child, teen, or young adult. We have two highly skilled Social Workers who can assess and treat a variety of emotional, social, and behavioral challenges.

The individuals and families that I support, experience feelings of overwhelm and find themselves ‘stuck’ in patterns or strategies that hinder their well being. Avoidance, anger outbursts, intense worrying, controlling tendencies, substance use, and disconnecting from ourselves and the people we care for, are just some of the strategies we use to cope with life’s stress. We can become deeply stuck in these patterns even at the expense of our own well-being, and/or inter-personal relationships. Luckily, our brains and bodies are capable of great change. Restoring ourselves to a more optimal way of being, is possible.

For over 20 years I have supported adults, children, couples and families to have healthier relationships, and better emotional well being. I specialize in working with symptoms of stress, anxiety, and trauma and I use a strength based, relational lens to understand your unique symptoms and to build on your strengths. If you or your child is struggling with emotional regulation, anxiety, anger, behaviour problems, or persistent health issues connected to stress please call for a free consultation.

Figuring out how to navigate life can be tough and, at times, can even seem impossible. Sometimes, we need extra support to get through difficult times, to deal with something we have long been avoiding, or to deal with emotions we’re not familiar or comfortable with. Whether you’re looking for support in making key changes in your life, to help understand yourself better, or for support with a particular mental health concern (e.g. depression, anxiety, etc.), we will work together to find a healthy way forward.

Are you struggling with managing stress and often feel overwhelmed? Do you find maintaining a balance between work and your personal life challenging? Do you have a difficulty enjoying time with your family and friends once your work day is done? Are you looking for more alignment in your life? If you are stressed, fatigued and struggling to enjoy life outside of work, I would love to work with you. I am skilled at supporting people who are having a difficult time managing workplace stress, interpersonal relationships issues and anxiety.

I am thrilled to be able to help people, "help themselves." I believe we all have answers to our problems and issues, which talking to a compassionate, caring person helps to uncover. Trauma of any kind can make us susceptible to unhealthy coping mechanisms. Certain situations in life are difficult for us to handle at times. I help to provide strategies and guidance in trying out new ways to cope. Shedding light onto our issues and behaviour which is not working for us places us in in the driver's seat as we control our reactions.

You’re exhausted with all that life has been throwing at you lately. All the strategies you’ve tried have only brought temporary gains or have somehow made things worse. You need support and a new perspective. You have a busy life and don’t have the time to drive all over the place trying desperately to connect with a therapist. Or maybe you've been to therapy but have just never found the right 'fit'. You really need a therapist who cares and who won't judge you. You’ve come to the right place. You can find the support you need here – for yourself, for you and your partner, or even for your preteen or teen.

When your parenting, relationships and happiness are all suffering, you need change and you need help.

Everyone should be able to feel that they have worth and are enough as they are in any given moment. My goal is to create a safe and nonjudgmental space to be able to work toward this knowledge, while exploring strengths you may have forgotten or don't know that you have. I believe in the importance of meeting people where they are at, and walking alongside them in their journey. I am a Registered Social Worker with over 5 years of clinical experience working with children, youth, and adults. I have worked closely with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, ASD, and who have experienced trauma.

Like a light post, I will help guide you with compassion, non-judgment, and care to a place where your pain is transformed into peace.
