Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Mississauga, ON

Aspire Therapy is the private practice of Registered Psychotherapist Deborah Callander in Mississauga. ASPIRE is an acronym for A Supportive Partner in Recovery, which I believe describes my approach well. I draw primarily on Internal Family Systems therapy to explore the sources and development of the suffering in your life, critical to healing. Coping with pain by self medicating eventually does more harm than good. If you've tried to make changes but life has become unsustainable I can help. Let's discuss the options available to you for recovery.

I am a member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario, currently pursuing my registration with the College of Psychologists. Having worked in various clinical and forensic settings, I have developed an open awareness of the intersections of factors that shape clients’ mental health and well-being. I am respectful and considerate of cultural and contextual factors when offering support. My approach is warm, empathic, and grounded in humanistic principles while utilizing evidence-based interventions to help my client achieve his, her or their goals.

The high levels of anxiety, anger and loss that families are facing today are wreaking havoc on our well-being and in our relationships. You may notice the ways you used to cope with stress are no longer working. You long to move away from being in survival mode but aren’t sure where to begin. You may secretly believe nobody out there will ever understand you or care to, which can be a lonely and painful experience. You being here means you are exploring the idea of reaching out to speak with a therapist. This is a brave and vulnerable first step.

We all have struggles in life. Sometimes during this struggle it's hard to see where we are and the strides that we have made. Our thoughts and perceptions about our realities shape how we view ourselves and the world we live in. Sometimes our thoughts and perceptions can unintentionally impose limits leading us to feel stuck and impatient. Sometimes our thoughts can judge and misdirect, leading us astray. I've walked alongside many people experiencing various struggles such as, addiction, trauma , anxiety and depression. If you are feeling stuck and wanting support to help propel you forward towards your goals, counselling can help.

Feeling anxious, betrayed and broken trying to figure out your external and internal environment, every step seems overwhelming. I got you! And your GOALS. Goals that do not let us sleep, and then lack of sleep that does not let us work towards those goals. I know you want to take charge but are being surprised by your brain chemistry on a daily basis, trust me its not you. Are you finding comfort in relatable memes, avoiding social interaction, missing your social life and spiralling into a vortex of negative self doubt? Let's change the narrative here by educating ourselves and aiming to have more self awareness and acceptance.
