Men's Issues Therapists in Barrie, ON

My passion is to walk alongside clients as they navigate pain and uncertainty in their lives. As human beings we are designed to be in relationships that can be powerful and life-giving, and through which we can often experience emotional wounds. My counselling approach aims to provide an environment where each client feels valued and safe as we journey together to explore these wounds and work towards healing and healthier relationships.

We all get a little stuck sometimes. It may be a stressful situation you're trying to cope with, learning to connect with others again, searching for a sense of purpose in your life, or something that happened in the past that you can't quite figure out how to get passed. Sometimes we can get so caught up in the tasks we need to do in life that we lose touch with who we are and what is important to us. We’d love to help. Sequoia Counselling supports clients of all ages in learning to overcome challenges, face their fears, strengthen relationships, learn new skills, and maintain mental wellness. You're worth it! Contact us today.

To experience challenges in our lives—whether they stem from within or outside of us—is human. With an earnest desire to confront those challenges and better ourselves, it is possible to bring forth a life of meaning, fulfillment, and joy. Emotional hardships can be overcome; our lives can be grounded in a deep sense of purpose; we can become confident in ourselves and live authentically. These are but some of the precious things we can attain through the process of self-exploration and healing, and with proper guidance and mentorship, this process can be navigated with grace and self-acceptance.

Here’s what I do to help. I integrate key therapeutic principles drawing on a wide range of psychodynamic, cognitive behavior and dialectical behavior modalities, in which I invite you to sit down with me in a relaxed, safe, informal way, and talk. If you've never been in psychotherapy, it can be hard to believe that "just talking" can be helpful. But if you’re depressed, anxious and feeling bad about yourself, you can be profoundly helped by an in-depth conversation in which you come to create greater self-understanding, discover insights and meanings, recognize patterns, and explore options and skills.

Hi! I'm Kristen! Registered Psychotherapist Qualifying. Is there something in your life you want to change, but can’t figure out what? Are you overwhelmed, tired, or feeling stuck? Maybe you’re living with anxiety, depression, loneliness, stress, or burnout? These powerful thoughts and feelings can be a lot to manage, but you do not have to manage them alone. Maybe you feel like your problems are too big or too small. Maybe you feel like something is just a passing thought and is not worth bringing up. When working with me, nothing is off the table – if it’s important to you, then it is important to me.

Life can present challenges for all of us. Most people will experience some form of depression or anxiety at some point in their life. The support of an empathetic, non-judgmental counsellor can help us to create a plan to move forward when we feel ‘stuck’. If you are experiencing sadness, stress, or worry, I can provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for you to identify the goals that are most important to you, and support you in reaching those goals.

Difficult times are inevitable. We all experience them and can sometimes use extra support. Whether the struggles are due to relationships, work, mental health, or anything else, they are all valid and deserving of attention, empathy, and support. Maybe you are feeling stuck and cannot see a way out of your current situation, maybe you have found yourself in a seemingly unbreakable pattern, or maybe you know how to break the pattern, but just can’t seem to will yourself to do it. I will provide you a safe and non-judgmental environment to help you organize your thoughts, identify root causes of issues, and plan next steps.

Are you overwhelmed by stress and anxiety? Do you feel like you're done, fed up, tired of the fighting? Are you unsure of how you got to this place, and unable to move forward? Struggling to communicate or to express yourself in relationships? Whether it's a marriage, your family or just personally, we can help work together to change your life, one step at a time.

I know. It's a wild world we live in. There are so many things unknown and so many challenges from your past that might be surfacing. I'm not going to say that I have a clue what you are going through, because I don't. But what I do know is that the practitioners at SoulScape Services offer services that have helped people shift through intense anxiety and pain and if you are reading this, chances are that you are looking for some relief and a place to call home. If you are looking to find meaning, purpose, and to feel well again, Soulscape is a community of practitioners that treat your wellness from a whole-person perspective.

I offer a safe, non-judgemental, client centered therapeutic space for individuals and couples. I believe that a journey towards healing requires empathy, encouragement and supportive facilitation as we often haven't had the opportunity to learn ways to cope with traumatic experiences and life related stressors. This can result in dysregulation and feelings of anxiety, depression and overwhelm in our day to day lives and relationships. Let's work together to explore and address your concerns in an open minded, anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, sex/body positive, LGBTQ+ inclusive space.

VOX Mental Health is a person-centred, trauma informed counselling practice that is committed to creating a safe, judgement free, supportive environment where you can begin to use your voice.

We offer both virtual and in-person sessions that service individuals, families, and couples in Ontario Canada.

“With a heart like that, you deserve the world.” (R.M. Drake) - Don’t we all deserve to be the very best version of ourselves, the Best You that there can be. Together, we can examine common negative thinking patterns; in addition, we can work on developing better coping strategies aimed at enhancing personal positive reasoning skills and attitude.

I am passionate about supporting clients in discovering effective solutions to their challenges. Through the expression of empathy and acceptance, and by providing a collaborative environment that is safe and free from judgment, I empower my clients to face their challenges, discover themselves, and grow to their potential. I believe that each client is the expert of their own unique situation and that, with the appropriate therapeutic support and guidance, each client will be able to realize the solutions they hold within themselves.

Clients I work really well with are interested in collaborating and brainstorming about the challenging situations and difficulties in their lives. Overtime, we work together to develop understanding and solutions. I particularly enjoy working with individuals who suffer from ADHD or are impacted by someone who has ADHD. Of course clients with ADHD also often have co-morbid conditions like anxiety, depression and PTSD; I am very happy to help them with the issues related to these problems as well. Also, I enjoy completing complex psychological assessments; I find them challenging in a very good way.

Even in the best of circumstances change is hard. Unwanted or unexpected change can be even harder to accept. Often during life’s difficult transitions (e.g. grief, loss, divorce, new baby) you’re left feeling lonely, confused and even out of control. Things you once enjoyed may now feel overwhelming and stressful. Many of my clients complain of feeling exhausted, overcome with intense emotions and a general feeling of being "stuck". If you've been trying your best to navigate this alone but aren't seeing the results you want, help is here for you.
