Therapists in Barrie, ON

Rachel has always had a passion for helping others which is why she spent the last 10 years working in the law field. Working in law exposed her to the complexities of life, developing her belief that change, growth and healing is possible if individuals are supported with compassion, empathy, and non-judgement. This belief has become her therapeutic approach, along with valuing that each client is unique, making the therapy process unique. Rachel will walk alongside clients through their challenges and suffering, hold a space for healing, and help clients move towards a life more in alignment with meaning and purpose

Healing and growing can be a hard journey to travel alone, and asking for help when we feel stuck can be even harder. I am here to help! Whether you are experiencing difficulties in your intimate relationships, have parenting concerns, experiencing stress, anxiety or depression; a lot can be done to help those concerns be addressed and improved. Our ability to better cope and build strength and resilience is often connected to our motivation and willingness to work on making changes. It is when you feel you want to do something different but you don't know what to do, that the help from a professional can make a big difference!

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.

We all want a better life and we are all doing the best we can with what we have. But sometimes we can get stuck in routines, unsure of how to make the change we so desperately want to see in our lives. Sometimes even asking ourselves "what do I want?" can be anxiety provoking and make us feel like we're stuck when we can't answer it. Times like this we can even find ourselves appealing to others' needs and "living for others" all the while feeling like something is missing. Everything we do has some benefit to us, otherwise we wouldn't do it. Getting to the heart of this underlying want can be the empowering change we need.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist who has worked with individuals in different capacities since 2011. Using my calm and gentle nature, I have built a practice based on professionalism, trust, openness and authenticity, where clients can feel safe and accepted without judgement. My approach to psychotherapy is tailored to the needs of my clients. I am dedicated to helping those in need of mental health care, and I always enjoy meeting new people. I have earned an honours Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Laurentian University, as well as a Master's degree in Counselling Psychology with Yorkville University.

Come! Let´s have a chat! Have you ever thought that there is no longer an emotional bond with your partner. No exchange of comfort, care and no more satisfaction? Feelings about our own well being striving to solve the situation with the thought that my partner needs to change. Let me tell you there is always hope. You have an internal urge to continue, but on the other hand you are so deep in the problems that possible solutions are not in reach. You can overcome the challenge of communication & teamwork.

Hi I'm Samantha and I'm so glad you're here. In therapy I will walk alongside you –meeting you with warmth, patience, curiosity, and openness. I'll show up without judgment or expectation and hope to create a space that feels comforting and safe to you. My approach to therapy is collaborative and informed by an anti-oppressive, feminist, and trauma-informed lens. Together we'll create a rhythm for therapy that honours your individual experiences, values, and needs. I’m passionate about supporting clients who have been stigmatised, marginalized, or misunderstood.

Currently, we provide online counseling services exclusively, featuring a talented team of counselors from diverse backgrounds who can tackle a wide range of mental health issues. Our primary goal is to nurture the holistic well-being of our clients, addressing their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects through exceptional counseling services. We cater to individuals, couples, and families, tailoring our approach for each unique client. In the event of client dissatisfaction with a therapist, we pledge to either find an appropriate replacement or suggest an unaffiliated alternative expert to ensure their needs are met.

Underlying our innermost desires is the need for freedom and courage to be our authentic selves, to bring our gifts and talents forward into the world, and to find belonging with others who love and support our true selves. My goal is to provide you with support and guidance as you journey towards actualizing this life vision. As we explore your unique experiences and the meaning you (and others!) have attributed to them - lending itself to the creation of your worldview, sense of self, and how you understand others - we will cultivate a deepened understanding of the areas of potential for growth and change unique to you.

Welcome! I am committed to cultivating a nurturing relationship with clients that sees, affirms and honours individuals for who they are. All parts of you, including the parts that have been hurt, are welcome here. I believe that the human spirit is resilient, in spite of trauma, hardship, and struggle. You have the power to heal, and I am here to empower that spirit. As a client, you are in charge of your healing and are the sole authority of your lived experience. I offer you the freedom to set both the goals & the pace of our work together, and I intend to meet you where you are.
