Bisexual Therapists in Tweed, ON

“It is never too late to be what you might have been” – George Eliot. As young children, we know what we need, want and enjoy. We are less likely to hold back from big dreams, showing emotions or stating needs. As we move through life, difficult experiences and outside expectations often move our focus from intuitively doing what is best for us, leaving many feeling detached from our true selves. Using an eclectic, feminist approach with a sprinkle of humor, Samantha will assist you in assessing and addressing the life events that have moved you away from the life you want.

I am a Registered Social Worker who works with folks 12 years old+ from all different backgrounds. I offer 1:1 counselling services that are grounded in a strengths-based approach. I have experience supporting folks with anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, life transitions and case management. I offer my services virtually as well as in person (Kingston), and will work with you to create a treatment plan tailored to your needs and wishes.

Namaste! I provide individual, relationship and marriage counselling, in a nonjudgmental, relaxed environment. Over the last 35 years I have worked with individuals and couples guiding, teaching and helping them by using an eclectic approach, and a variety of different types of modalities depending on the particular needs of my clients. I also provide family mediation and relationship counselling for couples who have split. I am a sex therapist, working with all couples and individuals. I specialize in many areas, as I believe all issues are connected, so to treat problems in isolation is unrealistic and can be short lived.

The path to parenthood has not looked like what you expected. Maybe you’re desperate to start your family, but it’s not happening and you’re terrified that parenthood isn’t going to happen for you. Maybe you’ve experienced the devastation of pregnancy loss and are left grieving in isolation, wondering “does this grief even count if it was “just” a miscarriage?”. Or perhaps you want to add to your family, but this time around it just doesn’t seem to be happening. Baby showers are devastating. “Pregnancy” becomes a swear word. Sex is no longer fun, it is simply a method to conceive/means to finally seeing that double pink line…

"Does anyone know where the love of God goes~When the waves turn the minutes to hours?" [Gordon Lightfoot]...Peoples' curiosity and courage are natural resources & forces that amplify therapy process and results. After years of experience, I am convinced that the most powerful tools for recovery are CBT, DBT (cognitive & dialectical behaviour therapy), EMDR and cardio-emotive feedback therapy... All are founded on the latest scientific findings on the neurobiology of attachment and "heart/brain" treatments. Along with time-tested healing traditions, together we can activate your innate instinct & privilege to become whole and connect meaningfully with others .

We support adults, teenagers, and children who are struggling to find direction and purpose in their lives.

We support members who are experiencing family crises and breakdowns. We help our clients live their best life, one worth waking up for each day.

I provide In-Office and Online, private/encrypted Telehealth Psychotherapy. For people requiring a Mental Health diagnosis, medication or treatment recommendations, I can help to arrange Online Consultations with a Psychiatrist (in my office; typically within 2 months of the referral). *NOTE: I am also available for Equine Assisted Psychotherapy at the Charmed Horse Assisted Wellness Centre (www.charmedhawc.com - Enterprise, ON).

Are you feeling stuck or trapped? Is it hard for you to relax because you are worried and/or anxious about you and/or your child’s future? Feel like you have tried everything and often feel alone in your struggle?

Undisturb yourself! Using CBT, Existential, and Mindfulness forms of psychotherapy, I help clients (in-person/ telephone/ on-line) develop the tools in order that they think, act and feel better. Sometimes the realities of life understandably leave us susceptible to certain anxieties, despair and general existential concern. All too often we find ourselves developing unhelpful irrational thoughts and behaviours that can seem impossible to change. But they aren't. If you are interested in investigating and changing your assumptions and behaviours, if you want to modify the lens through which you view and experience the world, my therapeutic modality could be well suited to you.

I am a trauma-informed, client-centred EMDR Certified Therapist based in Prince Edward County. My priority is to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you can deepen your understanding of yourself, develop more genuine relationships with others and the world, and make changes you have been struggling to make on your own. I work with individuals aged 16+ facing a wide range of difficulties, including: grief and loss, depression, anxiety, trauma (including PTSD and Complex PTSD), dissociation, abuse, gender identity and sexuality issues, relationship challenges, suicidal thoughts and emotion regulation challenges.

If you are experiencing the intense hurt, confusion and pain in the aftermath of being cheated on, welcome. I support those affected by infidelity (both chronic and acute) and the partners of persons with porn/sex addiction. Betrayal can feel like your whole world has been turned upside down, leaving you feeling lost and uncertain. Betrayal trauma can be complex, isolating, and overwhelming. It impacts one's sense of trust, esteem and safety with others and self. I understand the depth of pain, grief and pressure to decide what to do next. Together, we'll navigate through these emotions, finding peace and rebuilding your world.

Struggling with life's challenges, past wounds, or big decisions? Navigating life's challenges and emotions can be a daunting journey. I'm a compassionate and creative psychotherapist who believes in the power of psychotherapy to heal past pains and shape a brighter future. I draw from a toolkit of evidence-based therapies, respecting your unique background and cultural influences. My practise is 2SLGBTQ+ friendly and open to adults of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life committed to guiding you toward better relationships and self-understanding, & I want you to know that you don't have to do it alone.

Hi, I’m Laura. I am a gentle soul, a nature and music lover, and a person who loves creativity and connection. I was diagnosed with ADHD later in life. I’m intimately aware of its impact on relationships, work, self-esteem, and overall ability to function. I understand feeling overwhelmed and anxious with a busy and overactive mind. I get how a lifetime of messaging suggesting you’re not ‘normal’ can creep into your mind and become your own shameful inner dialogue. I've done my own work to embrace my ADHD diagnosis. I certainly don’t have all the answers, but I have learned many tools to not only function but thrive.

Are you and your partner(s) struggling to manage conflict or communicate effectively? Are you hoping to deepen your connection or work through life transitions together? Are you navigating a shift in relationship dynamics? Relationships can be difficult to navigate as we all shift and change through time, sometimes it takes a little extra work to shift and change together. At Roots in Wellness, we will support you through whatever shifts are occurring your relationship(s) to help you find common ground in order to move forward positively.

I am completing my graduate studies with interests in individuals, couples, youth/adolescents, anxiety/depression, stress, and primary self-concepts. I tend to take a person-centered approach and collaborate with clients to create an environment focused on working to and for their benefit. Through a trauma informed lens, I use interventions from CBT, ACT, Narrative therapies, Solution-Focused models, and strengths-based counselling to help clients develop the skills and attitudes which support the pursuit of their goals. I will be completing my graduate studies in January 2025.

My core approach stems from the belief that everyone has a unique creative capacity within themselves. In my work with folks, I strive to support them in discovering and developing that ember that is creative capacity. Together we work to build upon practical tools that exist inside the individual. I use a variety of modalities with expressive arts being the main pillar of my practise.

Have you experienced trauma? Do you oscillate between feeling overwhelmed and anxious, to numb and detached? Do you think that you will never measure up or be "good enough"? We adapt to our environment as a means of ensuring our survival. Perhaps you've learned to adapt by withdrawing from others, or neglecting your own needs. It may have helped to stay endlessly busy, never allowing yourself a break, or using aggression to protect yourself. Regardless of how you have adapted or coped with what happened to you, I firmly believe we can heal from trauma and find inner peace.

Accepting New Clients! I have over a decade of experience in the mental health field, including providing individual psychotherapy, facilitating group therapy sessions, delivering workshops, and conducting comprehensive assessments. My clinical experience ranges from front-line mental health work to leadership, working with individuals and their families in navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use and addiction, stress, and more.
