Spirituality Therapists in Kitchener, ON

The Delton Glebe Counselling Centre is a multi-faith counselling agency committed to strengthening emotional and spiritual well-being. We are rooted in the belief that faith and spirituality are important resources for healing and change. We embrace diversity and cultural inclusivity and offer counselling to all individuals. We provide trained therapists who qualify for membership in the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.

I work with adults who are feeling stressed: they may worry, panic or feel shy in social situations, may try to be perfect, may feel badly about themselves, or wish to express themselves more effectively, or to set clearer boundaries with others, or to be more assertive. I also work with people from the straight and LGBTQ communities who are experiencing challenges in their relationships, with sexuality, sexual orientation, alternative relationships, alternative sexualities, and gender. Many experience these challenges, but some may lose a sense of balance in their lives or the ability to enjoy life and relationships while trying to sort out their concerns.

Have you found yourself wanting help and support, yet others in your life think of you as the “strong” one and don't see your pain? Perhaps you work in a helping profession and don’t know where to turn for your own therapy. Anxiety, depression, or even burn out can lead to feeling lost and lonely. Maybe you have difficult people in your life that make you doubt yourself. Many people are feeling fearful and disconnected from their community, themselves and the larger "something more". Creating a safe space where you can be heard and understood is the foundation of my work.

Healing can be a very challenging time in our lives. We heal when we feel safe and connected to our mind, body, and spirit. I will support you in making sense of your emotions and discovering your inner self. I am here to support you to the best of my ability and provide a non-judgement and inclusive space for you to share your life journey safely. During our time together, we will discover what approach works best for you and build a collaborative therapeutic relationship.

Trauma, depression, and other mental health issues can often cause individuals to become "stuck" leading to feelings of resignation or hopelessness. It can often feel like the individual is at the bottom of a well which keeps getting deeper, with the light out feeling further and further out of reach. It can lead individuals to believe that there is no path forwards, or that any path forward is one devoid of meaning or fulfillment.

Accepting New Clients - Are you tired of feeling stuck and frustrated with the same unhelpful patterns in your relationships, struggles with anger, or addiction? Have you been putting off seeking counselling because life's hectic demands make it challenging to prioritize your well-being? You're not alone in feeling this way. Reach out and we can work through it together. The easiest way to view my availability and book an appointment is through our website (chettiarcounselling.ca) or you can email if you have any questions about the process.

Accepting NEW Clients - Do you ever wonder how your behaviour and mental well-being might be influenced by culture, context, and childhood experiences that lie outside of your awareness? Therapy provides a safe and trusting environment to explore how intrusive thoughts, moods, emotions, perceptions, and habits affect your everyday functioning. I invite you to engage with me to uncover, through verbal and non-verbal approaches, your inborn strength. Together let's face your anxiety, depression, aimlessness, loss of identity and zest for life and strive to regain your resilience for whole-health wellness.

*Over 23 Years of Experience* I value working with individuals looking to grow and evolve into the healthiest version of themselves. If you are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, chronic health issues, loneliness or any challenging life situation that you are unsure how to navigate on your own, know that you don't have to. I offer a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive environment for children, teenagers and adults. We all have strengths regardless of the struggles we experience and when working together, we can evoke healthy, positive and sustainable change.

I am a holistic psycho-spiritual Registered Psychotherapist with a focus of supporting clients to personally discover and embrace a fully empowered life of their choosing. In all avenues of practice, my approach is to help clients discover emotional healing and spiritual transformation, personal empowerment and stepping into one's sovereign self - it's all a matter of 'soul-fullness.' I work with teenagers and adults from all walks of life, who are facing a variety of life challenges, from mundane to traumatic. My style is open, informal and inclusive.

As your therapist I believe you are the only expert about yourself and your life. I view therapy as a co-active partnership where the individual and the therapist work together towards the goals of the client. This does not mean that I cannot provide guidance and suggestions about what might be helpful. Therapy is ultimately about your individual needs and what you hope to achieve. I see my role as supporting you in exploring different ways of coping and achieving your potential.

Accepting new clients. Something on your path has brought you right here to this moment. I want to invite you to consider that the reason you are here searching, goes beyond the pain, the struggles and the suffering. I want to invite you to consider that you are here because a part of you knows that you can move forward, knows your strength and your ability to heal. I believe that part of you can be your guide and your inner compass. I encourage you to listen and to trust that part of yourself. I am here to help you connect to your inner self, to heal from your past, and reimagine your future.

I believe that a fulfilling life comes from integrating all parts of ourselves: our beliefs, our emotions, our behaviour, and our relationships. Forming a strong relationship with my clients, I help them to discover where their strengths lie, and how best to apply them to the areas that need more attention.

Feeling stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, in despair? Relationships creating stress? Old pain resurfacing? Don't fit in? A deeper truth calling you? Your body showing symptoms? Awakening to the spiritual? A holistic therapist, I guide you through those stuck places - emotional, mental, physical and spiritual - with counselling, psychotherapy, hypnosis and energy work, so you both cope better in the moment and release the deeper core of a problem. You develop a whole new way of being! My gifts to you are depth, insight, clarity, intuition, problem-solving, compassion, connection, safety, humour and great respect for your uniqueness.

Do you feel alone in your relationship or exhausted by life's constant demands? Do you feel like your relationship is in shambles? Do you feel desperate to be understood by your significant other? Sometimes it feels like all you do in your relationship is argue and fight. And you don't like the person you and your partner are becoming. Change IS possible and there IS a way forward. Peace of mind, peace in the home & restoration can be goals we will work on together, with a clear plan, toward hope and true harmony.

I don't think mental health is something you achieve, but rather something you work your whole life trying to improve and maintain. There are so many reasons why you can't seem to be the best version of yourself - lack of motivation, negative past experiences, fears, and insecurities. And sometimes you just need a space separate from your world to help clarify and better understand yourself and what's standing in your way. My goal is to create an open, trusting, and vulnerable space where you can be your most authentic self - I believe that is the state where insight and change takes place.

Accepting New Clients - A human mind is a very mysterious place filled with memories, desires, feelings thoughts, knowledge, and sensations. At times these are positive while other times they can be negative, unwanted and create a sense of chaos overpowering our lives. How can we stop those unwanted and unpleasant experiences from overwhelming us? Great Question! I help adults and children overcome these challenging thoughts and behaviours through reflection, creating and pursuing goals and nurturing healthy lifestyles.
