Therapists in Courtice, ON

With personal sensitivities and experience in grief and bereavement I have a deep interest in personal suffering and trying to find meaning in the midst of life’s challenges.

We all see the world through our unique lens, which can make finding the right therapist and strategy challenging. That's why I believe in designing a personalized plan for each of my clients to help them achieve success. By taking a holistic approach that considers the mind, body, and emotions, you can be empowered to create positive change in your life.

I consider it a special privilege to be able to work with individuals, couples and families as they try to navigate the challenges that life can bring. I do not see myself as the 'expert' in a person's life or experience but work with my clients to help them to break down the barriers that can get in the way of being the person, couple or family that they would prefer to be. My approach is collaborative and I believe that a strong therapeutic connection creates a climate for change that can have lasting results.

Are you an ambitious Executive, dedicated Manager, or influential Leader feeling the weight of responsibility bearing down on your shoulders? Do you find yourself navigating the complexities of leadership while silently grappling with the burden of unresolved trauma or emotional fatigue? If so, you've arrived at the right place. I'm here to extend my hand and guide you through a profound transformational experience tailored specifically to leaders like you.

Ethan is deeply committed to his clients’ growth and transformation. His goal is to meet clients where they are and create a tailored experience that meets their individual needs.

Hey there - As a therapy survivor myself, I know that it is often hard to reach out. I want to encourage you that I can relate, and also know that the first step to change comes with taking a courageous leap to work on your own goals! I am incredibly passionate about my role as a Registered Psychotherapist (with the CRPO). Life has had its share of ups and downs for me, which I believe have helped me understand my clients in a deeper level. I find a lot of joy out of those 'ah-ha' moments, when a client breaks free from what is holding them back, or finds healing on their journey. It's truly an honour to walk with every client!

Making the decision to seek therapy can be difficult, it takes a lot of courage and self reflection to admit that it is time to get help. My hope in working with you is that you will feel like you have come to the right place. I will operate from a trauma informed, anti oppressive framework, uncovering the deeper issues. I will focus on barriers such as shame, guilt, unworthiness, self -loathing that get in the way of our true self. These emotions can cause us to isolate and withdraw. Symptoms associated with anxiety, depression, and PTSD can become difficult to manage over time.

Accepting new clients! Are you feeling stressed, stuck, or overwhelmed? My name is Kelsey Rozema, and I am a Registered Psychotherapist who works with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I offer in-person and virtual support for individuals struggling with anxiety, stress management, low mood, burnout, life transitions, perfectionism, and self-esteem. I am a firm believer that, with the right support and tools, anyone is capable of changing the trajectory of their lives and making positive change. Whether you are looking for short-term problem solving or long-term support, I would be happy to work with you.

When we’re caught in the struggle we can feel hopeless. We may notice things that use to help aren’t helping. We may have lost motivation to try, as a result of this. It’s common to get caught in the suggestions of others, or online searching for something that may help. We may not know where to start but know, we don’t want to keep feeling/thinking/living as is. Therapy services can help us find a starting point, then develop a plan and act on making change, all while supported by a regulated professional in the field.

Have you been struggling with feelings of overwhelm, sadness, or anxiety? Maybe you're not even sure how to describe what you are feeling, but know that something isn't right. I am passionate about providing people with a place to be heard and genuinely listened to, giving them the space to explore how their past has shaped their relationship to their own emotions and as well as to others around them. I provide therapy for individuals as well as couples, and use an integrative approach based on the client in front of me. I would love to hear from you and talk about how I could best support you in this season!

Hi, and welcome. I’m so happy you are here. If you are experiencing mental health challenges as it relates to relationships concerns, eating disorders, depression, anxiety and low-self esteem, I would love to support you. Let’s get you to a place of unconditional self-love and acceptance, achieving goals serenity, acceptance, wholeness, and happiness so you can live a calmer, fulfilled, enriched life and thrive. If you find yourself returning to destructive relationships, having low self-esteem and negative self-talk, and low coping skills or emotional regulation, I’d love to work with you!

Trauma can profoundly impact our well-being, leaving us feeling disconnected and alone. It can create extreme psychological stress in our daily interactions with others, impeding our quality of life. Trauma does not have to be one significant event. It can be a series of relational or attachment wounds experienced in childhood, leading to self-esteem issues, problems asserting boundaries and people-pleasing behaviours. If you struggle to feel safe, know that you are not alone. I aim to create a warm and welcoming environment where we can re-establish your sense of connection and trust in others.

Choosing to invite someone else into your story is often a vulnerable and challenging thing to do. My aim is to assist in creating a safe non-judgemental space for you to process your journey and the unique pieces that have been crafted together within it. I work with couples, adults, teens and children to support diverse needs including strengthening relationships, conflict resolution, connection, emotional regulation, anxiety, depression and much more. I want to say thank you for considering me to be a part of your journey it is a privilege and honour.

Are you coming to therapy with questions about your identity, trauma, taking up space, doubt, or how to navigate change or difficult relationship dynamics? Do you feel like you might be the only person who has ever felt this way? Or like anxiety has been keeping you from accessing the support you deserve? As a queer person who has benefited greatly from my own therapy, I know how important it is to have a nonjudgmental space where I can show up as my whole and authentic self and have my grief, loss, and doubts witnessed and validated. I would be honoured to create that space with you.

You’re feeling stressed and overwhelmed and it causes you to overthink, "doom scroll", or lash out at others. The mere thought of work; seeing that person, or having that conversation seems too unbearable. When you get up the courage to do the ‘thing’, it feels like it never works out, leaving you feeling misunderstood, discouraged and stuck. You’re often told that you are “too much”. Over time, you’ve come to believe it, resent it and blame yourself. You spend so much time trying to be a version of yourself that is acceptable to others that at the end of the day you’re exhausted. And now you realize that it's time to make a change.

I am passionate about supporting children, youth, adults, and couples, and I strive to form a unique and special therapeutic relationship with each of my clients that fosters opportunities for meaningful change through exploration, reflection, acceptance, growth, and healing. Working from a psychodynamic, attachment-theory, and person-centered lens, I remain committed in being flexible in my approach for my clients. Whether it is trauma/stress related, mood disorders, grief/loss, anxiety, depression, life-transitions or other life stressors, I recognize each client brings with them their own experiences.

Hard-wired into every human being is the deep need for connection. Wonderful and meaningful at times, relationships can be equally exasperating and painful! Helping individuals and couples to develop healthy relationships is my passion. With many years of experience, I have also helped clients of all ages and backgrounds in the areas of anxiety, depression, parenting and marriage, self-esteem, shame, abuse, trauma, sexuality, stage of life adjustments, grieving/loss, emotional awareness and regulation, OCD, PTSD, and other life stressors. Supporting clients on their faith journey, is also an area of specialization.
