ADHD Therapists in Burlington, ON

Clients who see me are often in committed relationships, ones that are new and just getting started or relationships that have a long history of 20-40 years or more. People want to change the relationship, deepen it or decide if it is a keeper. What each person values may need to be clarified and shared. The language they use to communicate may not bring the results they want so we look at changing how they relate, the stance each takes, the influence of family values and history. How about intimacy: is it enough to satisfy each person, is it often enough, is it forgotten?

My approach is 2S-LGBTQIA+ affirming, intersectional, neurodivergence-affirming, collaborative, emotion-focused, and integrative, creating space for meaning-making and a diverse range of identities. I have 13 years of experience in health care, working 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, but can refer.)

Do you find yourself standing at a crossroads, unsure about the path to follow? Are you ready to create positive changes in your life, but troubling symptoms are hindering your progress? Do you feel worried when it comes to supporting your children and loved ones? Thankfully, you don't have to navigate these challenges alone. Hi, my name is Dr. Nina Laugesen, psychologist and director at Willow Tree Psychology. With almost 20 years experience, I have worked with children, adolescents, adults and families with a range of concerns, including anxiety, PTSD, OCD, emotion dysregulation, low mood, parenting concerns, and more.

"What shape waits in the seed of you to grow and spread its branches against a future sky?" Are you struggling with anxiety and/or depression? Do you feel driven to grow, yet are perpetually stuck? Are you navigating a particularly difficult life transition? I can help. I will provide you with a safe place to explore your unique situation and equip you with tools to work through it. I can meet with you in my beautiful, private office located in West Hamilton.

We help many children, teens, adults, couples and families. It is very important that everyone feels comfortable whenever they meet with us and this is a priority for us. We also ensure we have clear goals for our work together and move as quickly as possible towards these goals. When people leave our centre, they have clear tips and tools to use to maintain the benefits they have gained. The primary treatment we provide for individuals is Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT). With couples, we use EFT. With some children we include play therapy. With all clients, we also use other styles to assist as necessary.

Are you ready to feel better? Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is a proven, effective treatment to help you work through life's challenges. If you are looking for relief from anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, insomnia, chronic pain, panic attacks, addictions, or other mental health concerns, CBT may be the right therapy for you. Using a variety of tools and strategies, CBT helps us to see how our thought patterns influence how we feel, and how we act in the world. Our thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and our body are so connected - each one re-inforces the other, making it very easy to get caught in a downward spiral.

Is stress interfering with school, your job, or relationships? Does it seem like anxiety is calling the shots? Maybe you’re feeling low, like depression is running the show; or simply not feeling quite like yourself. Whether you’re looking for ongoing support or a quick tune-up, come see for yourself how a meaningful conversation can start to get you back in the driver’s seat of your life.

At times, many of us contend with emotions and suffering that are overwhelmingly painful, disheartening and difficult to bear, often as a result of unique stressors and events. I work with adults, adolescents, families and step-families using Emotionally Focused Therapy, EMDR, interpersonal psychotherapy, and DBT/CBT within neuroscience and attachment frameworks. I encouraged clients to access inner strengths and free their capacity for growth. Whether you or a family member experience depression, anxiety, marital distress or difficulties with peers, you deserve support in a confidential, accepting, safe and caring environment.

I am a registered psychotherapist, Certified Theraplay Practitioner and Certified Play Therapist with 30 years experience.

Caregivers experience times of disconnection from their own parenting wisdom often due to stress, poor mental health, and conflicting ideas about the best approach(es). I know that caregivers can rediscover their own parenting wisdom, I have seen it and lived it. I can help you reconnect as a caregiver to your child.

“Lost”, “Stuck”, “Overwhelmed”, are these words you would use to describe your life? Do you feel like you're standing still while others are passing you by, but you don’t know how or where to move forward? Life throws us many difficult challenges, especially when in our teens and early adulthood. Young people today are faced with balancing pressures from family, friends, school, work, and society, all while trying to find a path in life. Trying to navigate the stress coming at you from multiple angles can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and can make it hard to have good relationships.

You are not alone. Some of our thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and experiences may lead us to that place where we can feel isolated and lost. The darkness is all around. I do this work primarily because I hope we can go together to that darkness. Together, we can move through this pain to the other side.

** This practice is currently at capacity. For many of us, parenting is the most important thing we will ever do…and it's often stressful, confusing, and frustrating too! I support parents, children, teens and families to access their strengths and address sensitivities in order to manage the tricky parts of being a family. Trauma, illness, learning disabilities and differences, grief, divorce/separation, blended families, pregnancy, and everyday life stresses pose extra challenges for our emotional health and our family functioning, as well as our relationships at school and work.

When you’re not feeling like yourself, it can be difficult to navigate daily tasks, maintain relationships, and find joy in the things you once enjoyed. You may be tired of feeling this way, longing for relief and a return to a sense of normalcy and well-being. You feel overwhelmed by anxiety and depression, affecting your ability to enjoy daily activities and maintain meaningful relationships. You've decided that you’re ready to make a change. This task can be daunting however; you are not alone together, we can work through your struggles, develop coping strategies, and foster growth and healing.

I imagine you have read many of these profiles trying to find the right therapist for yourself or someone you care about. This can be an overwhelming experience, however, the relationship between the client and therapist is vital to the therapeutic process. I believe in each client trusting their own gut feeling when choosing the person they feel connected to and are drawn to work with. This is something I will talk about in the first session as we begin to build rapport and safety. Trusting your gut today is a step towards strengthening the relationship with yourself.
