Chronic Pain Therapists in Mississauga, ON

Whether you are struggling with addiction, stress, chronic pain , or depression, I can help. Although these four issues may seem separate, there is a lot of overlap and chances are that if you are experiencing one of these issues, you are experiencing at least two others, where they feed off each other. My holistic approach takes into account your life as a whole. I believe in long-term recovery, so I aim to treat and heal root causes rather than symptoms alone. I also help to create sustainable and supportive structures in your life that you can lean on during hard times.

Are you struggling with regulating or feeling your emotions? Is your mind filled with negative, ruminating, or intrusive thoughts? Or perhaps you’re feeling stuck or are resorting to self-sabotaging behaviours? I offer therapy to individuals that are struggling with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, emotional dysregulation, self-worth, relationship conflict, life transitions, trauma, and chronic pain . If you feel that it is finally time to address these issues and take the first step towards personal growth and wellbeing- welcome, and congratulations!

Welcome, I am glad you’re here! I know the world can be heavy and we can feel lost in it, but you are not alone. You are worthy of receiving support and it would be my honour to offer that to you. I am a Registered Social Worker with a Masters in Clinical Specialization. I practice from an empathetic relational lens, and work virtually with adolescents, adults, and seniors.

We will go at your own pace, and we will take the time to explore the concerns and challenges that you’re experiencing.

My clients face a wide range of issues including: Depression, anxiety, chronic pain , Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), life transitions, career transitions, relationship challenges and parenting issues. When I first start working with clients, we develop a list of goals that they would like to work towards so that our work is focused and directed. Some examples of goals my clients have worked towards and achieved include: acquiring tools to feel more in control of their depression and/or anxiety, becoming more assertive with others, improving their relationships and feeling more fulfilled with their career.

My ideal clients are challenged with depression, anxiety, anger issues, illness and stress. Their goal is to relieve their symptoms so that they can live a more fulfilled life.

Life can be challenging. When something throws us for a loop, our usual coping strategies may not be enough and we may find ourselves feeling lost, afraid or unsure of what to do and how to manage. If you are experiencing a crisis or major life transition such as job loss, diagnosis of illness or a chronic health condition, marital or relationship crises (i.e., infidelity, abuse, separation), psychotherapy and clinical counselling can help you regain your bearings and cultivate novel coping strategies to get you back on your feet.

Mindfulness is the process of befriending oneself unconditionally, with compassion and kindness. Through traumas, life transitions, mistakes, and successes, mindfulness can be that constant strategy that allows you to be grounded firmly in your healing. It is a holistic approach that synthesizes the mind, body and soul. My work is rooted in my personal practice of 10+ years and my professional social work experience of 18+ years. My practice is LGBTQIA2S-affirming, pro-fat and anti-racist. My areas of specialty are: anxiety, depression, chronic/terminal illness , grief, burnout, body image, relationships, and immigrant issues

Perhaps you are searching for ways to manage feelings of anxiety or depression. Maybe you are looking for a greater understanding of how to assert yourself, handle confrontation or participate in healthy relationships. You may be experiencing emotional pain from trauma or unresolved events in your life. I have a breadth of knowledge about how to work through these uncomfortable feelings. I can help you learn how to communicate clearly so that others know what you need and how you want to be supported.

"People are doing the best they can". Absolutely. And, given life experience, skills, supports & lack thereof. Yet, despite our best efforts, situations past or current, perceptions, emotions, ways of coping can be more than what we can effectively navigate alone. We hit ruts. Life isn't what we want it to be. Therapy can help us to understand the issues & actively work toward desired changes. To create "a life worth living", of your own design. Authentically you. If you want positive change, if you're ready to work diligently toward change, if you're ready to "get down & dirty", in partnership, let's talk!
