Therapists in Barrie, ON

Feeling stress, deflated, low or struggling with your inner critic? Seeking help is not easy. Tracy’s experience working with offenders and victims of crime and/or tragic circumstance provides her with an empathetic, supportive and nonjudgmental approach regardless of your situation or struggle. Whether it be, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relational, grief, historical abuse, childhood or developmental trauma, or neuro-diversities. Despite one’s past, everyone can become their own best friend.

Sometimes, the things that have happened in our past can affect our daily lives significantly. Trauma can make people feel as if their past defines who they are and that it will always have a grip on them. Although traumatic events can cause lasting effects, there are ways to regain control over your life if you have experienced trauma or developed PTSD. As an EMDR clinician, I use an evidence-based approach to help you become 'unstuck'. Seeking trauma therapy requires immense courage. I understand how difficult it can be to discuss trauma, which is why I provide a calm, non-judgemental space for you to begin the healing process.

I am here to offer you steadfast support, compassion and tailored therapeutic techniques to support you in not only reclaiming your life but get you closer to your goals.

If you are just tired of giving and caring for everyone around you except for yourself, you’ve come to the right place. I come from a teaching background where students and duties came first. As a child of immigrant parents and currently a military spouse, I have also experienced increased stress due to frequent relocations and living far away from family and friends. A common block to getting much-needed help and support is the belief that self-care is selfish. The thing is by slowing down and taking care of your own emotional and mental needs you will be able to offer so much more to the world!

Are you in search of a safe space where you can openly share your life's struggles? I'm here to guide you on a journey towards self-improvement using a holistic approach.

I understand that taking the step to seek therapy can feel daunting, but it can also be incredibly freeing. From the moment we connect, my priority is to build a relationship of trust & understanding. As a compassionate therapist, I'm dedicated to creating an environment that revolves around your unique experiences.

Life has its ups and downs and sometimes gets really challenging. So often we tell ourselves we can handle it, that things will get better, that it's not that bad, or that other people have it worse. Maybe we’ll fix it by doing more, giving more, pleasing others more. Everyone has their unique reasons to seek counselling. Often, it's for gaining support with a current challenge or life transition. Or, for support around long-standing unhelpful patterns and difficulties from the past. For adult women from their 20’s through midlife and into their elder years.

Are you feeling stressed, anxious, or completely numbed out and disconnected from yourself and the world around you? Do you feel like you’re just going through the motions of day to day life feeling exhausted yet it doesn’t feel like you’re moving forward? Do you criticize yourself, over analyze everything, and constantly strive for perfection? Do you aim to please everyone while putting your own needs last? Are your relationships suffering and in need of repair? Together, you and I will figure out what’s really going on. There is a reason you're feeling this way and I want to explore where it's coming from with you.

As a relational psychotherapist, I specialize in working with individuals and couples who are searching for meaning and new direction in their lives. Based on over 30 years of experience working with clients, I realize that there is no one method to be used with every client. Pulling on a wide range of modalities, including breath work and a body-mind awareness, I tailor our way of working based on the client's needs and issues. Also as a Jungian, I have come to understand the value of working with dreams in order to tune into the deep unconscious currents in the psyche.
