Taking New Clients! I am a Registered Psychotherapist (qualifying) with experience supporting people with a wide range of concerns from depression, anxiety, phobias, and relationship issues. If you are feeling stuck, have negative thoughts, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, grief, trauma, interpersonal challenges or re-defining yourself in an unsatisfactory relationship I work through a holistic and culturally sensitive therapy approach to aid in reaching your desired goals.

I firmly believe that we all deserve to live happy, fulfilling and gratifying lives. If you are tired of struggling with anxiety, depression, low self esteem, mental health , or addiction I can help. You can achieve the life you desire with meaningful connections and relationships using the right tools, strategies and support. Together we will identify your triggers, to better understand yourself and your relationships with others. Using this method we will work at a pace that suits your needs ,and attain the well being and satisfaction you desire.

If you're feeling disconnected, distracted, and detached from your life, it may be time to look at why. Why can't I connect, why am I not able to just "get over" my past, or why does it all feel so meaningless? Maybe there are other questions, like “what am I doing with my life” or “who do I want to be?”. It’s okay to take time that's just for you, to look at your life and see both the big picture and explore the often overlooked details. With the right support, you can feel more present, connected, and in control of your life.

I have vacancy to supervise a few counsellors/ therapists. My style is to follow your individual style and provide suggestions to fit your treatment methodology of choice. I believe supervision can effectively support continuous professional growth whether a new or already seasoned therapist.

Taking the step to talk to a therapist can be difficult, but if you find yourself contemplating this, I would encourage you to take the next step and reach out. It is not easy to go through difficult times on your own and having an experienced therapist to help guide you, provide you with alternative perspectives, develop coping strategies, or challenge you in your thoughts or behaviour patterns can really help to gain some ground in feeling better and working through life’s hard times. I am an experienced therapist with over twenty years experience working with people in a variety of situations.

Art therapy is an ideal way for individuals or groups to explore therapy and find healing and support. Therapy can be joyful and creative. My ideal client is open to discover positive and supportive creative and client-focused approaches. Whether you require talk, expressive (non-verbal), brief, long-term, individual or group art therapy, it is a realistic goal. Art-making can explore your stuck or painful feelings, alter any thoughts or behaviours affected by fear, abuse, uncertainty, trauma, grief, loss, diminished moral, or work-stress and anxiety. I look forward to discuss your treatment goals and explore our journey together.

It can be a difficult process finding the right therapist, and I am here to help. I'm Dr. Lesley Miller, a Clinical Psychologist licensed by the College of Psychologists of Ontario. At Brookside Psychologists, we have many experienced, licensed psychotherapists and psychologists available to work with you. We're located in St. Catharines and Burlington.

Accepting new clients, in-person and virtual. Specializing in ADHD, Stress, Separation and Divorce. You are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and frustrated. You have hopes and dreams of having a lasting relationship, but everything has changed. You’re wondering how you got to this point and where to go from here. You think to yourself, “I can’t continue living this way,” and you want to find your footing. You’re wondering how to navigate the next phase of your life and to make time to prioritize yourself so you can work through your struggles. You deserve time, attention and to be heard.

It isn't easy to ask for help. Stressors come at us from so many directions. Issues such as depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflict and job and family stress keep us from living the kind of life that we had hoped for.

I am a registered Psychotherapist, registered Social Worker and certified Play Therapist. Life's journey can be filled with moments of victory and joy, and moments of sadness and struggle. There will be times when you persevere and times when you will need courage. Life's journey can bring you to a crossroad leading you to ask which direction to follow. Should you find that your life's journey is presenting challenge or adversely impacting your emotional, mental, physical or spiritual well-being, and you are seeking to increase your wellness, let's work together to find your inner peace.

NOT accepting new clients.. As your therapist, the most important thing you need to know about me is that my clients are my top priority. This means that I will provide a safe, non-judgmental space to ensure you feel heard, supported and validated. I believe a healthy therapeutic relationship can help increase self-esteem and facilitate change.
