Therapists in Brighton, ON

Compassionate support is here! Now in-person and virtual! I have been of service to the community for over 20 years including working at a women's shelter, rape crisis centre, high schools, and hospices. I work with clients in the areas of couples, divorce/separation, policing/first responders, stress management, anxiety, depression, bereavement, blended/step-families, cross-cultural issues, and healthy relationships. I use solution focused techniques, somatic experiencing and mindfulness strategies to guide my clients to build their own "tool box" with skills to assist them through difficult emotions, situations and life events.

You may find yourself feeling stuck, overwhelmed by anxiety/stress, or feeling triggered by past trauma. We are a team of caring RSW's and RP's providing support to adolescents, adults, couples and First Responders. We specialize in trauma, childhood abuse and attachment wounds, maternal mental health, fertility, domestic violence, and couple therapy. Our approach is attachment-based and we are passionate about helping individuals to feel more connected to themselves and their relationships. We strongly believe that a therapist-client relationship should be rooted in trust and safety and characterized by warmth and acceptance.

Currently welcoming new clients for virtual and in-person sessions. We are a collection of Psychotherapists (RP, RP(Qualifying) and Clinical interns) who specialize in providing therapy to individuals, couples and families to clients across Ontario. Please look at the gallery of photos to see each of our team members - or seek further information about each provider on our website. We work with themes of sexuality, relational challenges (individual, couple/poly or family context), communication, addiction and substance use, disordered eating, non-monogamy, interethnic partnership, grief and loss, and mental health issues.

I understand that most likely you have been trying your best and pretending that life is OKAY, but now the heaviness of putting on a brave face is getting you down. You have tried a few things ( reading books, maybe attending therapy) but you find yourself repeating the same old habits of ignoring and pushing down your feelings. Your unresolved TRAUMA is making all your decisions right now. Most likely, most of the time, your trauma leaves you feeling quite unsafe in your body ( panic attacks, low mood, etc). You DO NOT want to feel like this anymore but you are also a little nervous about whether therapy can "really work"?
