Therapists in N6A

At certain times in our lives, we may feel like we are stuck. We struggle with maintaining our relationships at home or work, have difficulty meeting deadlines, or are unable to deal with the emotions of what is happening in the world. Counselling is a way to work through these issues. Here are a few other reasons why individuals and couples may seek counselling: reduced emotional and physical connection due to strained communication and increased conflict, infidelity, workplace conflict/bullying, recent separation or divorce, and an inability to find a suitable partner. These situations can cause immense pain.

Currently accepting new clients (in-person and online). Welcome! As a parent, do you wonder how best to support the emotional needs of your teen or how to get them to open up to you? Do you dream of a closer, deeper relationship with your teen but you aren’t sure how to get there when it feels like they’re pushing you away? If your teen is experiencing difficulties in relationships with friends or family members, emotions that feel overwhelming or out of control, or difficulty making healthy decisions, let's talk about how I can help.

I am currently not accepting new clients. You have taken a great step forward in seeking support. I view therapy as a very collaborative process. My goal is to be empathetic, engaging, and to provide a comfortable framework for you to explore the emotions, choices and relationships that are most important to you. Together we will develop a treatment plan that best meets your needs. My therapeutic approach is warm and non-judgmental, which I balance with direct and open conversation. I am driven in my work to empower people to discover and enhance their personal strengths, and use these skills to reach their goals.

Making the decision to begin therapy can be a life altering decision. Tessa believes that finding the right fit is the most integral part of the process. Tessa wants to ensure you have customized and individualized treatment plans that suit you best. She spends time in the first few sessions assessing needs and creating this plan with you in a collaborative way. Tessa would consider herself a natural, straightforward, open and easy going therapist who finds a way to connect this with evidence-based practices for the best results.

Beginning your search for a therapist is a big step -  I am here to walk alongside and understand you. I am client focused and strive to provide a safe and non judgmental place to work through your experiences. I hope to help you feel empowered, understood and heard. Although it can feel overwhelming, talking through challenges can help reduce unwanted feelings. Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, transitions, trauma, attachment, or some difficult life event? I am here to help, understand how you are living and to help provide some relief as you move forward in your life.

The therapeutic relationship is a partnership, and I’m committed to working collaboratively with individuals from all walks of life to support positive change and emotional growth. My experience includes working individuals with depression, anxiety, stress management, improving self-esteem, confidence building, life transitions, grief and trauma. I offer a safe and supportive environment where we can explore the issues that brought you to therapy and develop an individualized plan to address them online!

Now welcoming new clients (offering in person, virtual, evening/ weekends, pay what you can & sliding scale options). We prioritize a compassionate, judgment free space. We offer a person-centered and trauma informed approach to supporting mental and relational health. We believe that we all come to therapy with complex experiences that often connect and impact us, therefore, our approach will always honour your story and how the parts of it weave together. Britt has gained experience supporting individuals & families over the last 10 years working in the social services field. Britt also provides some supervision.

Are you facing anxiety, self-doubt, or uncertainty and seeking a safe space where your emotions are respected and understood? Look no further. As a therapist dedicated to your mental well-being, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapies (CBT) to tackle various concerns such as anxiety, PTSD, eating/body image struggles, OCD, and mood disorders.

We all go through rough spots in life where we can benefit from time to reflect. These times can also be an opportunity to understand ourselves better, and make sense of harmful patterns. Throughout life, we develop thought and behaviour patterns in our response to stress, in our relationships, and in our daily habits. With effective tools and strategies, we can make sense of them, and let them go. This opens us up to a more authentic and healthy life.

Welcome to Chandler Counselling & Consulting and congratulations on taking the first step toward bettering your life. I look forward to developing a treatment plan based on your individual needs. I have been working for the past twenty years alongside individuals wanting to improve their well-being and escape the hold of anxiety, trauma, and depression. My work has been centred around attachment, trauma, and the work that can be done when we focus our attention on the relationships that matter to the individual served. Every individual is different and I pride myself on recognizing each client's unique needs.

Are you a loved one struggling with substance use or addictions? Do you find yourself extremely anxious or depressed with no known cause? Are you looking for support for yourself or your loved one who may also have a trauma history? These challenges do not need to be faced alone. Within all of us is a great capacity to heal and recover. For all of the times you have tried to take on life's challenges alone, you are not alone and there is help to guide you through your struggles. Allow me to guide you through what life has thrown your way and take back control of your path. Recovery is possible for anyone.

I have a Master’s Degree in Social Work and I am a registered social worker in good standing with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers. I offer counselling to individuals from all backgrounds, in a safe, compassionate and non-judgemental space, whether in person or virtually. Whether you are managing anxiety, low self-esteem, difficult family dynamics, health issues or something else, reaching out for assistance is an investment in yourself. I aim to help you find balance through facilitating the development of coping skills to help you move forward with your life while managing its challenges.

We are an online counselling agency so do not provide services in person. Strength Counselling Services has licensed, experienced therapists who use evidence-based practices, prioritize client needs, and maintain ethical standards. We offer culturally sensitive, affordable services in a supportive environment. We offer a comprehensive goals assessment, regularly assess progress, and collaborate with other professionals. We provide transparency in our fees and for thirteen years now have held a positive reputation of trust, and client success. Lastly, ensuring our clients' privacy and confidentiality are of utmost importance to us.

Over the past 26 years I have specialized in working with individuals (adults and youth, male and female) who have done something of a sexual nature that has gotten them into trouble, or have engaged in violent behaviour towards their intimate partner. I also support families with safety planning. I am a qualified expert in Criminal, Family, and Superior court to conduct risk assessments for individuals who have committed a sexual based offence, as well provide the courts with recommendations for treatment options for those individuals. I am also specialized in working with clients suffering with anger management issues.

Tina J. Smith & Associates supports the "whole family" (children, adolescents, teens, adults, couples, and families). It is our passion to help restore hope and healing by walking a journey alongside you. Everyone is faced with suffering in their life, and "at times" this suffering seems overwhelming. Counselling and psychotherapy provide an opportunity to gain insight, tools, and treatment toward restoration and healing. We believe hope and healing are greater when individuals, couples, and families receive care and support from our specialized therapists from within our "family team."

Starting therapy is a brave and transformative step towards improving your mental health and overall well-being. I can also appreciate that beginning this process may feel intimidating and/ or overwhelming too. As an experienced and compassionate professional, my intention is to create a warm and welcoming space where you can feel comfortable to share your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will work towards achieving your personal goals and building the skills and tools you need to lead a fulfilling life. I have a physical office in London, Ontario and work with individuals, virtually, across Ontario.
