Therapists for Children in Mississauga, ON

Kristine Huson
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MA
1 Endorsed
Mississauga, ON L4Z
I offer virtual and therapy in person in Mississauga for children, teens, individuals, couples and families during the weekday and evenings.
As a therapist, wife, and mom, I know how much our closest relationships shape who we are...and how easily we can feel stuck inside them. I work collaboratively with individuals, couples, and families to slow things down, tune into the emotions and needs underneath the surface, and gently explore the patterns keeping you stuck. My approach is grounded, relational, and tailored to you. I create a space that is safe, inclusive, and judgment-free, where you feel truly seen and heard. Change happens in connection, and that's what we'll build together.

Mississauga, ON L4Z
Let’s be honest, life is hard, and in many ways, we juggle more today than we ever have! Life’s challenges can leave us feeling stressed, confused, demotivated, even helpless and hopeless. It can be a tough road to travel, but you don't have to walk it alone. As a therapist, I don’t think anyone should feel that way. I am committed to supporting my clients with guidance, care, and connected to the proper resources. With experience working with youth, students, adults, and parents, I enjoy collaborating with clients on a variety of challenges.

Shelley Deonarine, Stephens Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA CYC
Mississauga, ON L5R
I have over 10 years of experience supporting children, youth, adults, couples, and families in community mental health, justice, healthcare, and disability services.
You have value because you exist. Therapy built around your life—not someone else's. Life rarely fits neatly into the advice we hear from books, podcasts, or social media. What works for one person may not work for another because your story is uniquely yours. Whether you're navigating trauma, anxiety, ADHD, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, I believe meaningful change begins with small, manageable shifts. Together, we'll discover what works for you—not what worked for someone else.
