Attachment-based Therapists in Oakville, ON
Jessica MacDonald - MSW, RSW. EMDR trained therapist. Offering VIRTUAL sessions ONTARIO wide. Accepting NEW clients for VIRTUAL appointments.
EMDR can help if you’re feeling stressed, anxious, or stuck on past experiences. It can be helpful for overwhelmed parents or busy professionals who take on a lot and don’t have the time or energy to keep circling the same struggles. EMDR helps the brain process what’s been keeping you stuck so you can feel calmer, more in control, able to move forward, and be the version of yourself you want to be — often quicker than with talk therapy alone.

It takes courage to reach out for support when not knowing what to do. That can be quite a lonely and painful experience, together with feeling disconnected, stuck and overwhelmed. You can get a better understanding of your feelings and behaviors, see how you are entrenched in your own patterns or how you get in your own way, process past experiences and just talk about heavy stuff without feeling like a burden. This work can bring you closer to understanding and experiencing your authentic self.

It is with great honour and respect that I guide people out of the maze of confusion, emotional distress and dissatisfaction towards a life with freedom of choice, joy and a state of well-being. It can take a lot of courage to admit that the resources and skills you have traditionally used to solve your problems are not sufficient in your current circumstances. To quote Albert Einstein, "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." I commend you for taking the first step into seeking support and guidance for yourself.
