Therapists in Hamilton, ON

I help support people with Attachment Trauma and C-PTSD, Relational Issues, Big Life Transitions, and Self Discovery. My typical clients experience intergenerational trauma, childhood trauma, PTSD, anxiety, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), relationship problems, burn out, and who otherwise are seeking more fulfilling authentic lives. Sound therapy can be introduced in session as a meditative, vagal toning practice. I use Jungian Sandplay as a tool for exploring self, parts, and processing trauma. My role is to journey with you as a fellow traveler to uncover meaning and purpose, radical acceptance and change.

How do we navigate change? As we’ve all learned in these past years, the ability to navigate change has been uncertain and very tough. But whether it’s a change in your mood, your physical health, your career, your family life and relationships, or struggling through challenges that have been out of your control, it can be a very bewildering, confusing and even scary time. As a therapist, my approach centres your safety and empowering you to uncover your inner abilities and strengths. My role is to walk beside you through the tough challenges and be a guide through – what might feel like – the wilderness of your own emotions.

A general pattern I find with most people who choose to work with me is feeling stuck. Whether that's in career or life choices, a habit they you are trying to kick, or a feeling that you have more potential you want to actualize. Areas I am particularly drawn to working with include religious trauma, sexual trauma, addiction, and career and entrepreneurship. I find that people gravitate to my hypnosis modality (Hypnosis Assisted Healing) when they feel like they want something more than talk therapy, or that their situation requires a different approach. Trust your intuition!

June is Men's Mental Health month, and to give back for the month of June, I am offering new clients there first session for $20. After a decade of being a Social Worker, I have witnessed the difficulty that men face; the difficulty of fear, pain, confusion, and anger. These difficulties interfere with mens full potential of becoming powerful, disciplined, and masterful in their passions. The difficulties that men face are unfortunately ignored, and the answer to resolve them is to be more vulnerable. This leaves little direction to work towards the ability to overcome what stands in your way.

I help people with stress, trauma, depression, emotional pain and anxiety, and couples/families stuck in negative patterns and dissatisfied with their relationships. Individuals I work with are often hard on themselves and struggle to find balance between what they think they should be and their own needs and longings. I strive to help them get clear about what matters, what gets in the way of the life they want and to begin dealing with these obstacles. Couples/families I work with know they want something different in their relationships. I offer support during challenging conversations to increase understanding and allow change.

I know that asking for help can be scary. I also know first hand, that facing difficult times with the right supports and help in place, is easier than facing them alone. Whether you are struggling with intense emotions and thoughts, or it is a behavior that you can not seem to get under control, you do not have to navigate this by yourself. My passion is helping individuals, parents and families learn how to cope and manage more effectively, in order to achieve meaningful change today and hope for the future.

Hi, I'm Karrie. I am a passionate Registered Psychotherapist for individuals presenting with a variety of mental health concerns such anxiety, mood, and are having difficulty regulating their emotions. Although most of my work has been focused with children’s mental health, I can help support all individuals including children, youth, adolescents and adults who are struggling to regulate emotions and cope with daily stressors. I specialize in issues related to anxiety, mood, ADHD and behaviours and can offer strategies related to parenting, relationships and improving mental well being.

My approach is 2S-LGBTQIA+ affirming, intersectional, neurodiversity-affirming, collaborative, and integrative, creating space for meaning-making and a diverse range of identities. I worked in health care for 13 years, supporting with people of varied ethno-cultural backgrounds, and have completed Indigenous cultural safety/ anti-racism training. I've worked with 2S and LGBTQIA+ people in group settings and individually. (Please note that I'm unable to write a second letter of assessment for bottom surgery, but can refer.) My office is in a building that is accessible and a positive space.

I am currently a psychotherapy student working out of the Ottawa Street Health Collective offices at Ottawa and Barton. I have had success working with individuals managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, compulsions, and relationship dysfunction. Ideal clients are looking for new perspectives, a positive therapeutic relationship, insight, and personal growth. I am committed to offering support for individuals who have a hard time feeling safe, heard, or cared for. I strive to work from trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and gender-affirming perspectives.

I believe that many symptoms are adaptations intended to provide temporary relief from painful circumstances. However in the longer term, these adaptations can exacerbate distress. My practice focuses on helping people to develop more sustainable ways of coping, including examining your beliefs, accepting difficult emotions, and increasing self-awareness. Issues I work with include PTSD, eating disorders, body image, anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and overwhelming emotions. I also work with clients exploring their gender identity and sexual orientation.

I have a significant amount of experience in working with those who present with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, sex and relationship concerns, trauma, and oppression. My clients may struggle with internalized self-blame for the issues they're facing. I hope to help them reject harmful societal messages that lead them to believe that the problems they're having are entirely due to their personal shortcomings. I hope to provide a safe and non-judgemental space for them to process their experiences of trauma and oppression. I hope to help them develop self-care routines, strategies and boundaries to avoid burnout.

Creating a safe environment where clients feel empowered to share their stories is at the heart of my practice. My therapy approach is trauma-informed and person-centered, combining evidence-based modalities to meet each client's needs. I have experience in supporting clients from diverse backgrounds who have experienced trauma, PTSD, grief, burnout, chronic anger, depression, anxiety, suicide ideations, Relationship issues, and life transitions. Together, we can work towards gaining independence in managing your wellness. I provide personalized care that is unique to you. I believe therapy should adapt to the individual's needs.

Are you having difficulty coping with stress, anxiety, fears or life transitions? You may find yourself feeling inadequate, hopeless, and lacking motivation. These struggles impact your daily life, work, and relationships. Physical symptoms like insomnia and headaches may also be wearing you down. But you’re at a point where you’re ready to reclaim your well-being and discover lasting relief. More than anything, you’re prepared for a transformative change that leads to a life filled with peace, self-assurance, and a brighter future. I’m here to guide you on this journey.

Feeling anxious, burnt out, or just not yourself? Maybe it seems like no matter what you do you can't seem to break habits and patterns that are affecting your personal life and relationships. I aim to help people better understand themselves and their emotions, challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and reignite the spark that can sometimes go missing in life. I work with people struggling with anxiety, life transitions, stress, and relationship issues. I work with individuals and provide couple and relationship therapy.

I am a Registered Social Worker working with youth (12+) and adults, particularly people who identify as women. I love helping people understand their emotions and deepen their connection to themselves. Whether it's working through trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, or self esteem issues, I support each client with their individual needs in mind.

You're constantly feeling on edge and don't know where to turn next. You don't know if you can keep going as you are without making some changes. But even thinking about those changes makes you feel uncertain or scared. Maybe you feel nausea or fear or shame. Maybe you just feel empty or you have repetitive or consuming thoughts. Maybe you're just exhausted. People come to see me to move away from feelings of overwhelm, to begin to know themselves (and others) again, to find and use their voice, and to begin to feel better in their lives (as they define it). If this sounds like you, I promise you're not alone in feeling this way.

Sometimes, when the pain that we encounter in life is overwhelming, we can find ourselves feeling stuck, consumed by emotional struggle, and disconnected from what matters most to us. As we wrestle with difficult feelings like self-doubt, self-judgment, shame, hopelessness, or fear, we can begin to believe that there must be something broken inside of us. Instead of feeling engaged in life and tapped into self-enriching behaviours, we can find ourselves being pulled away from our heart’s deepest desires for who we want to be.
