Therapists in Mississauga, ON

I believe balance in our lives is essential to living happy, healthy lives. Sometimes this balance can be thrown off by life circumstances, our busy lives, or our desire to be helpful to our friends and family. In our work together, we can explore all of these challenges and can develop a plan to restore balance. I also believe that the client is the expert in their life. I am willing to be the expert on the different factors that can contribute to a person’s emotional well-being and mental health. Together, we can explore the strategies that will fit your personality and lifestyle.

***ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS: IN-PERSON & PHONE/VIDEO*** We believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. We have helped individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As relational therapists, we appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. We do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed. Rather, we see our clients as unique individuals, each with their own stories and perspectives, embedded in important relationships and contexts that impact them. We see strengths and we see hope, even when it feels like there is none.

Our assessment and therapy services are conducted by an experienced team of clinicians who joined Fleming Vigna Balmer after gaining many years of valuable experience in the public sector; for example, working in hospitals, universities, rehabilitation centres, social service agencies, and community-based clinics. As a team, we are able to offer a rich, experience-based range of clinical services. All of our clinicians are psychologists or psychological associates registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. This means we are independent practitioners licenced to assess, diagnose, and treat the full range of psychological disorders ranging from problems in living to serious mental health issues. In addition, we are consulting psychologists to the pilot recruitment programmes of a number of airlines including Air Canada, Jazz Aviation LP, and Sky Regional Airlines. At Fleming Vigna Balmer services are provided in English, French, Italian, Vietnamese, and Afrikaans.

As a relationship therapist, I focus on parent child relationships, couple relationships and relationships at the work place.

We believe that all persons are inherently good. When provided with the right support and encouragement, all persons seek to develop relationships and lead lives that are supportive and caring of others. Change is a continual process that is part of living. If we take the time to examine our lives, we can learn from our experiences and make changes that result in improved quality of life and relationships.

***NOW ACCEPTING CLIENTS FOR PHONE/VIDEO*** It’s a privilege and honour to be doing this work, and to walk alongside clients on their respective healing journeys. I believe that everyone is the expert of their own lives and life experiences. By working collaboratively and through meaning-making, I aim to support clients in connecting with their needs, dreams, hopes, as well as to the answers I believe each person has inside them. My approach is trauma-informed, non-directive, strength-based, and client-centered. Healing, the discovery of possibilities, one’s resilience, and one's gifts can all be part of the therapy process.

Are you feeling depressed, anxious or overwhelmed? Do you think that life has not been fair and you suffer from emotional pain/guilt? Are you looking for answers/solutions for your mental or physical illness? For 20 years I have been working with clients helping them with their unique life story. My therapy opens up the understanding of physical/mental disorder and integrates what has been rejected in your life. One client understood the circumstances that manifested a tumor and decided to continue her life without it. She actually started to appreciate her life and stopped blaming her parents for her upbringing.

Navigating everyday life can be hard, especially when faced with stressful life events such as life transitions, grief, and loss. I am passionate about supporting you to improve your relationship with yourself and others. I work from a compassionate, client-centred and strength-based approach. I use various evidence-based psychotherapeutic techniques that best meet your needs, and preferences.

I have over 15 years of experience working for the school community. I offer counselling services for children, youth, adults, elderly, as well as couples and family therapy for a wide range of issues including Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, parenting issues and family conflicts. I provide a non-judgmental safe environment where you can feel comfortable to discuss your personal issues and concerns including any life challenges that you like to discuss.

As we travel on this life journey, we may face many challenges that require adapting and adjusting to life's changes. Therapy can help us understand these obstacles and learn new ways of overcoming them to create the life that we desire. My goal is to establish a collaborative, mutual therapeutic relationship of care, support and provide a nonjudgement space for my clients to recognize, share life experiences, and foster valuable coping skills. Together, we could identify the patterns limiting your life and develop tools to gain greater sense of clarity, and feelings of empowerment for positive change & reach self-awareness.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and struggling to feel connected to yourself and others? Do you find it hard to feel happy? Are you having trouble coping with the challenges life is throwing at you? Life is full of uncertainties and hardships that can make it feel almost impossible to overcome, but you are not alone. These hurdles can offer us a chance to evolve and emerge stronger. By delving deeper into self-understanding and behaviour patterns, we can integrate effective coping mechanisms within a safe, judgment-free environment to help you manage these intense emotions and feelings.

I believe that challenges can be beautiful, albeit deeply painful, opportunities to create a life you feel inspired to live There is hope in every situation, and often life’s greatest lessons are learned during its biggest obstacles. Life's not always easy. Hardships and transitions can blindside you and leave you feeling like you’re just trying to survive, and on autopilot. And then the questions come: Who am I? How did I get here? The life you have doesn’t reflect the one you imagined. While we can not change the past, we can choose to create meaning in our experiences, and determine how its legacy comes forward with us.
