Greek Therapists in Mount Hope, ON

Hello! My name is Maria Costaki and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). I have also been an elementary school teacher in Ontario for 33 years. My passion for helping others lead me, in 2021, to pursue a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP - Yorkville University) so that I can work as a psychotherapist with adults, adolescents, and children over the age of 7.

As a therapist I aim to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can discuss personal and sensitive issues. I will work collaboratively with you to help you find the solutions that are best for you. Through psychotherapy you can explore negative emotions, gain insight to problematic thoughts and behaviours and learn healthy coping strategies that will help to rebuild your self confidence. If you are feeling depressed, anxious, stressed or overwhelmed therapy can help you overcome these feelings. If you are struggling in your relationships, therapy can help you create more satisfying and meaningful relationships.

I offer individual and couples counselling for a variety of issues using a collaborative approach, within a judgement free environment. The majority of my experience revolves around using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectic Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness based approaches, and Existential Therapy. I am also most familiar with mental health issues regarding anxiety, depression, stress, postpartum issues, obsessive compulsive tendencies, and self-esteem.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist registered with the College of Psychologist of Ontario. I have a Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology and an M.A. in Counseling Psychology from the Adler School of Professional Psychology in Chicago. My clinical training is integrative, and includes a directive Cognitive Behavioral method, a more introspective Psychodynamic approach, as well as a holistic Mindfulness style. I incorporate various therapeutic modalities into my clinical practice in accordance with the individual needs of each patient. I am fluent in English and Greek. I currently conduct virtual therapy.

Dr. Papazoglou is a former Police Major of the Hellenic Police Force and European Police College, and he holds a master’s degree in applied psychology from New York University (NYU) as Onassis Scholar.

Hello, my name is Debbie Papadakis. My goal is to empower you to unfold your inherent potential by accessing the subconscious mind using a combination of psychotherapy with hypnotherapy to help you live a healthy, wealthy, productive and happy life. For more than 25 years, I have worked with a wide variety of individuals, couples and groups from diverse backgrounds to help empower them to overcome limiting beliefs, unwanted behaviours, negative thoughts and emotions, addictions and/or afflictions, fears and phobias that were hindering them from achieving their goals, unleashing their full potential, and living in harmony.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Depressed? Fearful? Have you experienced a loss of a loved one? Are you feeling stressed at work? Have trouble concentrating and thinking? Are you cranky and moody?

Do you want to make changes in your life but don't know how or where to begin? Psychotherapy can help you learn ways to cope with negative emotions, sort out life issues, and make changes in your personal and work life.

Welcome, courageous human. If you recognize your patterns (& still struggle to change the harmful ones) . . . if you find yourself overwhelmed/triggered all over the place by the state of this world, or your family, or your relationships, I see you. Come in to the courage room. (The good news: you're already there, in the courage room of your brain-body-spirit.) If you want to heal: betrayal trauma (including sexual assault, incest); anxiety or stuckness; or require support during a big transition, please reach out. (FYI, my hypnotherapy work is different than regular therapy. Learn more about both here: www.karenconnelly.ca).

Life can be challenging and complicated. We might be able to deal with most of the problems that come our way, and sometimes we face a problem that feels hard to manage on our own (and we shouldn’t have to do it alone!). This problem may be something we are battling with internally or with people in our lives. It can be beyond our control or we might not know how to solve it or even where to start. Many of us find it hard to manage or regulate our emotions. Let me support you in discovering the strength and resilience you have hiding beneath these challenges and let’s work together to overcome the things that are holding you back.

Stepping into therapy is a personal journey, Whether it's the weight of overwhelm, the grip of anxiety, or the shadows of depression, your courage is the guiding force. You're here not just to navigate challenges, but to embrace a life that feels authentic and fulfilling. This is your space, where worries about yourself, parenting, your child, or relationships find understanding and validation. Your decision is significant, and your trust in us is honoured. Every small step you take is a testament to your strength and the beginning of your unique healing journey.

I'm Sabine Fischer, the founder of Integra Skills Counselling. We are a client-centered therapy clinic based in Cobourg with in-person and virtual therapy options. We offer couples, family, or individual/one-to-one therapy. People come to Integra when they want to overcome trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD-related challenges, relationship issues, grief, anger, and difficult life transitions.

As therapists, we have witnessed that people can change and heal, and we can support you in regaining hope and motivation for a better life.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a goal-oriented treatment that takes a hands-on, practical approach to problem-solving. The primary goal is to change patterns of thinking or behavior that are behind people's difficulties, and so change the way they feel, based on the idea that our thoughts cause our feelings and behaviours. CBT is effective with many adverse life events, including the following: *anxiety *depression *anger *stress *adverse life experiences *bullying *interpersonal and relationship difficulties (communication skills and conflict resolution) *stress management OCD, and *life transitions and adjustment.

Difficult life experiences can make coping with daily events challenging. Some people isolate themselves in a variety of ways due to fear of burdening or not being understood by those around them. For others, unprocessed adversity from childhood can leave them feeling a disconnect from the world, loved ones, and even their own bodies. The affects can be feelings of depression, anxiety, shame and/or self-doubt. Counselling is a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore the parts of yourself you have difficulty exploring elsewhere and get tools to help you live the life you want.

I offer services to individual adults who have experienced childhood trauma, fractured attachment, difficult family relationship and grief and loss. Additionally, I have extensive experience working with parents and caregivers raising children with diverse abilities, social and behavioural difficulties providing support as they navigate the different social systems.

Our lives can get painful and confusing. I specialize in helping adults and youth (16+) experiencing distress (depression, anger, trauma), complex family dynamics, and challenging life transitions, including adolescence, separation, midlife changes and grief. My style is integrative and draws across several modalities. I provide a safe space to explore your feelings and practice important adjustments that will serve you better. Together, we will take note of beliefs and behaviours that are damaging and unproductive; explore feelings that want to surface; and work on strategies for moving forward with greater joy and freedom.
