Relationship Issues Therapists in Guelph, ON

Taking the first step towards self-awareness and healing can feel challenging. I am here to offer a safe, unbiased space to unpack emotions, experiences, and thoughts. Recognizing our internal dualities and reconnecting with our inner child, a wounded part of ourselves, can be transformative and healing. As your therapist, I am committed to supporting you by fostering self-awareness and challenging harmful patterns. My business Off the Couch embodies the belief that change is possible. My aim is to get you off the couch both in life and in therapy.

Are you feeling anxious or depressed ? Have you been abused/traumatized/harassed? Are you having challenges because of issues from your past? Are you at a crossroads in your life, career or relationship? Are you searching for a sense of meaning/purpose? I have 30 years of clinical experience assisting individuals to make positive changes and transform their lives. My years of experience utilizing EMDR, Somatic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Energy Psychology makes my work unique and holistic. My clients make progress gently and quickly. Services are offered via video session, FaceTime and phone.

Most people who come to me are struggling with challenges that fall into one of four main categories: 1) anxiety, and other struggles with emotional regulation, 2) relationship difficulties, with family, friends, stress, work, nature, society, spirituality, and oneself, 3) direction, related to life purpose or career, and 4) depression, and grief-related challenges. I work with adult individuals (16 and up) and couples seeking guidance, support, and tools to help navigate life struggles with more self-awareness and agency. I also offer individual and group clinical supervision to therapists.

I often say that I come to my work honestly. I know first hand how it feels to suffer deeply, not understanding how to make it better, and being surrounded by those who were as baffled by me as they were supportive. I am incredibly passionate and committed to working with individuals who are struggling with self harm, suicidal ideation, anxiety/mood disorders, emotion dysregulation and relationship challenges. Those who are wanting to live a better life and just don't know how to get there!

ACCEPTING NEW ONTARIO BASED CLIENTS: Specializing in individual and group psychotherapy using evidence- based treatment models including Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy ( CPT). I am a Graduate of the Gestalt Institute of Toronto. I have also pioneered the creation of a Psychotherapy Supervision Training program for Occupational therapists in Ontario and have formal training in Supervision. The priority of my approach is to create a strong therapeutic relationship with clients, that is non-judgemental, safe, and collaborative.

Still today, there can be a great deal of negative stigma associated with mental health struggles and that can make it difficult for people to seek therapy or know where to start. I was inspired by a close friend years ago to seek therapy even though I was so reluctant. I chose counselling as a profession because I want to provide the same safe, non-judgmental relationship for my clients that helped me to break down that stigma in my own therapy experience. My ideal client is ready to do the work to gain a better understanding of their struggles and move forward with better tools for managing them.

Are you exploring your readiness for change and open to deepening your engagement in the therapeutic process? If these questions resonate with you, let's explore these paths together towards a more fulfilling life.

There are many sound reasons why people choose therapy. Some find therapy to be a safe place for deepening their self-awareness. Others find therapy useful for developing skills for improved coping. Additionally, there are those who find that therapy facilitates clearer communication with their loved ones. Jordana Sternberg, MSW RSW, is a registered social worker who has witnessed, time-and-time again, the incredible progress that occurs when people are motivated for change.

Are you feeling burdened, overwhelmed or numb? Perhaps you sometimes experience emotions that come out of nowhere, or seem inappropriate for the situation you are in. Do you want more fulfillment in your life and your relationships? These experiences are common for many of us, and can be an important indicator that we need a safe and supportive space to process difficult circumstances or heal from trauma. Every person has inner resources and gifts to help them heal and find balance. My goal is to compassionately support you in understanding patterns that have you feeling stuck and to explore your inner world.

Are you experiencing grief, anxiety, depression, or feelings of low self-esteem? Are you having trouble navigating your way through the loss of a loved one, a challenging relationship, or simply struggling to find meaning in your life? Many of us are knocked backwards by negative events that seem to unearth past hurts and make navigating our present and future more difficult. There are times when we need support and encouragement from outside of ourselves to help us navigate this inner world and push ourselves forward in our lives.
