Grief Therapists in M6G

Clients come to me when they're feeling overwhelmed and exhausted from trying to "keep it together all the time". Often, they're suffering from a combination of burnout, stress, anxiety, depression, fears or low self-esteem. They feel disconnected from themselves and unable to navigate even the simplest of daily challenges. They want support in learning how to reduce the weight of their emotional and physical tensions and regain confidence in their ability to navigate their daily lives.

I provide a compassionate, safe and non-judgmental therapeutic environment. I work from a client-centred perspective, where we collaboratively work towards understanding your relational dynamics, processing your ingrained patterns and triggers, and ultimately expanding your level of awareness and consciousness by exploring meaning, purpose and joy in life. Modalities that I have found particularly effective are IFS (Internal Family Systems) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), which go beyond traditional notions of talk therapy, to access and promote your inherent capacity for self-compassion and healing.

Change is difficult and it is hard to take the first step in seeking out therapy support. I know it takes courage to start the process. Most people I see want to feel better about themselves, less anxious, happier, more content. They often want some help for their kids or teens or for the family as a whole. When you start therapy with me, we focus on what you would like to be different in your life, what a small step towards your hopes would look like. We connect to that hope, because hope is what keeps us going. We also work to connect to your inner resiliency, your ability to bounce back.

Do you feel like you don’t know how to ask for help, or feel like you have no one to turn to? Do you feel like there’s a part of your identity that you need to explore? Have you tried other therapists before and it felt too stuffy or like you didn’t ‘click’? Hi, I’m Steph and I see you, thank you for being here. I am here to remind you that it is okay to be feeling exactly how you feel, all of your feelings are valid. I bring my whole self to our sessions with a grounded, curious and kind demeanor and really focus on fostering a genuine therapeutic relationship with you. I believe that therapy should feel less clinical and formal.

What if there was another way to manage difficult emotions and impulses, to decrease self-criticism and spiralling anxiety, to feel better about yourself in your relationships and to cope through life's challenges and changes.

Hello! I'm Jenine – a passionate therapist focused on helping individuals navigate life's challenges, including breakups, anxiety, depression and stress. If you've been grappling with these issues, you may find yourself going through the motions, ticking the boxes of daily life, while battling internal struggles that make each day feel like an uphill climb. Having explored various strategies in the past, you’re now looking for deeper, more lasting change. Beyond coping, my goal is to support you in stepping into your next chapter with renewed energy, clear vision, and a positive outlook on what the future holds.

Many women struggle with self-confidence because of the unrealistic expectations placed on us. These messages cause you to be hard on yourself, focusing on your mistakes and not noticing what you've done well. When your thoughts and feelings have been dismissed, you start to doubt yourself. This often spirals into overthinking, where even small decisions are hard to make. If you've been taught that your needs don't matter, it can seem impossible to set boundaries or assert yourself. I specialize in providing therapy to women that helps you develop your self-confidence, cope with stress and build healthy relationships.

Clients often come to me feeling lost, stuck, and unsure of how to move forward. They may have the desire to understand themselves more deeply, build self-esteem and confidence, and create more meaningful connections with others.

I offer a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches that are tailored to each client's unique goals and needs, drawing from my training and experience.

Everything changes when you fall in love with truth. Inner alignment, no matter where it takes you, is both the means and the end. If you're struggling with depression, anxiety, boundaries, isolation, narcissistic abuse, and/or low self esteem then it might be your intention to develop a keener sense of what your place in life is meant to be, create healthier boundaries and relationships. Together we can explore your inner world, understand who you are at your core, and what you need to develop into the vibrant human being you were always meant to be. Remember, to begin with, that our most important relationship is with ourselves.

Psychotherapy is my second career, and that makes me stronger as a therapist. That's because, in addition to my academic qualifications and clinical training, my own lived experiences as a daughter, a wife and mother, a student, an employee and an entrepreneur help me relate to my clients in so many meaningful ways. Clients relate to my sense of humour, empathy, and desire for growth as a person and as a therapist. And they value my ability to get to the root of the issue and expertise in both practical problem-solving and supporting clients' growth.

Hello! My name is Jessica (she/her), and I am a queer & neurodivergent therapist and artist. My background is in art therapy and I believe in the powerful healing that can come from expressing yourself through creation.

Anxiety (be it social, panic, situational, or generalized) can be a beast and is largely at the forefront of my practice. Its impact on our relationships, physical/mental well-being, moods, self-worth, and how we approach milestones/life transitions can lead us astray from the life we want to be living. Therapy helps us dial down the volume of anxiety. In therapy, you're provided a rare opportunity to relax and focus on yourself without judgment or competing narratives. Your difficulties. Your successes. Your goals. You decide where your therapeutic journey goes. I welcome the opportunity to be a part of that journey.

My therapeutic approach is person-centered and rooted in values of diversity, anti-oppression, social justice, and personal growth, and is inclusive of all identities and expressions. I work with individuals and couples with the goal of helping them meet their goals for wellbeing and self-understanding. I work with a variety of presenting concerns, including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, situational stress or distress, emotional exploration, and difficulties in relationships.

I specialize in mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), mindful self-compassion (MSC), and mindfulness-informed end-of-life (MIEOL). These therapies provide tools that address stress,anxiety, life transitions, creativity, work-life balance, and emotional resilience. I offer online therapy across Ontario tailored to individual needs and situations.
