Dual Diagnosis Therapists in L1N

With over 15 years of experience in family and children’s mental health, and another 10 beyond that in child development/care, I realize that life happens in many forms, with everyone experiencing and perceiving it differently. I see everyone as an individual, whose shoes I can never walk in, but hopefully I can support and walk beside for a time. All people are challenged in their lifetime, but for individuals and their families who have special needs, this is an on-going quest.

*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENT'S* I am so glad you are here and putting forth your needs first or maybe you are here because your friend or family member needs support or you are just tired of feeling this ‘Numb’ feeling and you want some answers as to “Why are you feeling this way? or asking yourself “Why don’t I feel happy or sad anymore?”, “Why am I like this?”, What is wrong with me? If I have made you question yourself right now then you are in the right place with the right person. As your therapist, I will help you explore all these feelings and will support you for your Mindful Comeback starting at your own pace.

Do you struggle with self-esteem or managing your emotions? Are you having difficulty coping or having difficulty in your family or personal relationships? Do you need help recovering from substance abuse? Have you experienced trauma in the past? In therapy, we will draw from practical tools that you can start applying in everyday life to build and sustain recovery. We will work towards tangible results — improved self confidence, better romantic and peer relationships, and sustained sobriety. Therapy is a safe space to start permanent healing. I am looking forward to hearing your story and to providing effective support.

We all feel lost sometimes or face life challenges and relationships that can feel overwhelming. Life is tough, but I believe we all have the ability to overcome hardships. Together, we can explore your concerns and past traumas, working towards lasting change that helps you progress toward the person and future you desire and deserve. I believe in a collaborative approach that empowers and motivates you during the therapeutic process. It's important to me to not only understand and address your concerns throughout therapy, but also to remind you of your strengths and capacity to contribute to goal setting and problem solving.

We are a team of independent therapists that believe in the importance of finding the right fit between therapist and client. Feeling connected and comfortable with your therapist is critical in ensuring your mental and emotional health needs are met. We will be there for you every step of your journey. We believe in therapist accountability and that no one can fail at therapy. Our diverse experience and specialties enable us to offer effective therapeutic services to all ages from the comfort of your home or in our office.

Therapy is a way out of feeling helpless & hopeless. At The Insight Clinic our priority is getting you results. We focus on building a genuine, empathetic, & positive relationship with you that will bring out your strengths and move you to a better place. Whether for you or a loved one, seeking help to improve your relationships, emotional regulation, & quality of life can be daunting. It's normal to feel doubt. We use a non-judgemental approach that considers the influence of traumatic memories on current issues. This will shed light onto solutions you haven’t seen before.

As your therapist, I will guide you through your own journey with your mental health. I hope to improve your quality of life, better your relationship with yourself, and be there for you when you need me. I focus on managing stress, reducing symptoms of anxiety, regulating your nervous system, increasing your self-awareness, processing trauma and trauma related disorders (PTSD), emotional pain, and working through shame and self-criticism.

Hello There, If you or a family member is a First Responder, Veteran or Frontline Medical worker, I may be the therapist for you! I primarily work with First Responders, Veterans and Front Line Medical workers who have experienced repeated traumatic exposures through their work. Flashbacks, nightmares, anger outbursts, dissociation, anxiety, panic attacks, and depression are symptoms that you don't have to live with! And those interpersonal relationships (at work, home and socially) can be improved.

Take a deep breath, you're finally here looking for the help you think you might need. Let's talk about the hustle of life. It's like being in a marathon, with the finish line constantly moving. Pressure comes from everywhere – pressures of society as we scroll through social media, family demands, work challenges, and that nagging voice in your head asking if you're enough. It's the constant effort of trying to overcome letdowns from others and ourselves. Sometimes, it can feel like you're an outsider in your own life, watching through a window as everyone else seems to have it all figured out.

Feeling overwhelmed, slowed down, hopeless or alone? Well you are not alone. My role is to walk with you down the path of self-understanding, acceptance and fulfillment. My goal is to help you take control back over your life and empower you to move forward down the path you want to create for yourself. I work primarily with adults, teenagers, and children who are experiencing anxiety, depression, conflict within relationships, issues related to self-esteem and body image, dealing with the emotional impact of divorce and people who are in general just feeling overwhelmed within their daily life.

Are you or your teenager struggling with anxiety, depression, or borderline personality disorder? Have you been drinking or abusing drugs in an effort to self-medicate? Do you need help managing stress, chronic pain, or the effects of trauma? You can identify the emotions that are holding you back and learn to cope successfully. If you need help recovering from difficult childhood experiences, sexual abuse, or other forms of trauma, contact me to get the help that you or your child need. Together, we will work on building your strengths, gaining insights, and building the coping skills that help you build a better life.

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.

Hello, my name is Sara Iyamu, and I have 16 years working as a social worker with a diverse group of children, youth, adults and their families. Utilizing Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness, I work collaboratively with my clients to identify goals for treatment and therapy. Counselling can be both short or long term and provide you a non-judgemental space to be yourself, self-reflect and increase self-awareness so you may harness your confidence and inner strengths to achieve your goals.

As a seasoned therapist and group practice owner, I've helped many people through experiences of anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, low self-worth, and relationship-based issues. I have a special interest in supporting late-diagnosed women with ADHD shift from overwhelm and self-criticism, to vibrancy and self-acceptance. I'm committed to providing clients with a compassionate space to process what's been hard, while reclaiming connection, ease, and authenticity in their lives. I also provide clinical supervision and mentorship to qualifying therapists.

We are an online counselling agency so do not provide services in person.

There are moments in life when we face adversities that leave us feeling overwhelmed, sad, anxious, hopeless, isolated, and/or stressed. Perhaps there is a problem that seems impossible to solve. Perhaps it seems like no one could possibly understand your experiences. Perhaps you aren’t even sure where to begin. I can support you to identify where you may be feeling stuck in your life and empower you to find ways to create balance within yourself and in your relationships with others and your environment.

I consider it a special privilege to be able to work with individuals, couples and families as they try to navigate the challenges that life can bring. I do not see myself as the 'expert' in a person's life or experience but work with my clients to help them to break down the barriers that can get in the way of being the person, couple or family that they would prefer to be. My approach is collaborative and I believe that a strong therapeutic connection creates a climate for change that can have lasting results.

Our focus at Dr. Lin & Associates is achieving growth and healthy change, and to this end, we provide a variety of services that allow our clients to develop the skills they need to meet their goals. Our speciality is in providing accurate assessments for children, adolescents and adults, to provide important clarity in deciding on treatment options and supports at school and work. They can also bring great insight to our clients and their families to understand the unique way they are wired and what can bring out their very best. We also provide follow-up parenting/individual coaching or in-home services after the assessments.

In times of hardship, having support is essential. I'm here to foster a caring, nonjudgmental atmosphere where you can openly discuss the difficulties you or your family are facing. Together, we'll work on gaining insights, building skills, and crafting strategies to help you move towards the life you envision.
