Infertility Therapists in Hamilton, ON

I believe it takes courage to take this first step in reaching out for help. Life is full of challenges and roadblocks that can often be difficult to move past or face alone. In therapy we will work on things that are of concern to you and at a pace that feels right for you. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, stress, grief, or relationship issues. My niche is in working with women struggling with infertility, pregnancy loss or postpartum challenges.

I provide low cost individual and couples therapy to youth (13+) and adults via phone & video across Ontario. Are you feeling lost, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, hopeless, or stressed? Do you struggle with your body image or self-esteem? Are you grieving the loss of a loved one, pet or experiencing a non death related loss? Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with a health condition, such as cancer? Are you going through a life transition? Are you struggling with infertility? Are you experiencing parental challenges? Sometimes, our life experiences can derail our foundation and leave us feeling misunderstood, alone & anxious.

The journey of motherhood often comes with unexpected challenges, uncertainty, vulnerability, shifts in identity, feelings of inadequacy, and other worrisome emotions. When our parenting journey does not meet our expectations, we can sometimes be left feeling depressed, overwhelmed, hopeless, fearful, and ashamed. I have a special interest in working with pregnant and postpartum women who are struggling with depression, anxiety, or trauma-related disorders. Utilizing best practice approaches, I also provide support, compassion, and encouragement for women experiencing infertility, pregnancy loss, and birth and reproductive trauma.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by persistent feelings of low mood, stress, or worries? Do you find it challenging to navigate life's ups and downs with resilience and confidence? If so, you're not alone. Life can be hectic, and stress is a natural part of the human experience. However, when stress becomes overwhelming and starts affecting your daily life, it's essential to seek support. I can help you develop coping skills and explore the underlying factors contributing to your experience. Together, we will explore your strengths, values, and goals, and develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and preferences.

I understand the reluctance to share deep-seated emotions and experiences, fearing they may be too overwhelming or misunderstood. With expertise in addressing trauma, relationship issues, mood disorders, perinatal mental health, infertility, and self-esteem I offer unwavering support as we navigate your journey together. I also provide couples counselling aimed at nurturing stronger connections and promoting emotional security within relationships. Everyone has a need to feel heard and validated, especially in our closest relationships.

Hi! My name is Novlette. I understand that the decision to seek help can be a difficult one. I believe there is strength in knowing when to reach out for support. My goal is to provide a warm and gentle approach to help you feel safe and secure during the therapeutic process. I am a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers. I have over 25 years experience working with mental health, families, children, adults, crisis intervention, mediation, cultural identity, oppression. I am client centered, utilize a systemic, strength based, trauma informed & culturally sensitive approach.

Under the framework of modern attachment theories, I work with clients to gain a greater sense of self-autonomy, determination and understanding. Many of our thoughts and feelings go unchecked during the busyness of a common day. In our work together, we will first learn to identify maladaptive core beliefs that so often plague our mental wellness. From there, I will implement EFT, narrative, and mindfulness approaches to combat self-defeating behaviours. How we think and feel about ourselves has a profound effect on our overall well-being, and both consciously and subconsciously influences every action (or in-action) we take.

Challenges such as low self worth, anxiety, depression, anger, loneliness, trauma, addiction, & grief provide an opportunity to grow. If you are feeling stuck in the same pattern of thinking and struggling with your personal and interpersonal relationships, it's time to change the way you think about yourself, your circumstances, and those around you.

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.

We all experience challenges and hardships and often forget to show ourselves kindness. Psychotherapy allows clients to share and explore their experiences in a safe space where they can be validated and reminded of their strengths while working towards their individual goals. Every person is different and I strive to respect and honour individuality. I aim to get to know my clients better in order to better support them in achieving their goals and coping with the challenges that life throws at them.

My education and experience has led me to a profound passion for the restoration of people. I value understanding how the human mind functions on a day to day basis. My education and experience in Marriage (Couple) and Family Therapy has led me to further expertise on topics including communication, conflict resolution, relationship issues, sex and stress within relationships. I believe therapy should never be seen as a failure, but rather as an avenue of growth and restoration.

I have worked with individuals, couples and families in private practice since 1983. Couples and families are a primary focus of mine including those struggling with issues of life transitions, mental health, sexuality, sexual compulsive disorders, substance and process addictions, as well as emotional and physical affairs. I am trained in systemic models of interventions that allow for a dual focus on the needs of the individual as well as those of the relationship. I am an Approved Supervisor with AAMFT which affords me the privilege of supervising psychotherapists and clinicians in the community interested in systemic models.

Navigating life and relationships can be challenging, exhausting, confusing, and downright overwhelming. In a world where one is constantly connected through social media, increasingly, we can feel isolated and alone as we strive to meet relationship and work demands, while living up to our own personal and relational expectations. In seasons of uncertainty, it is normal to feel a sense of spinning out of control, and struggling with where do I go from here? The thought of therapy can be scary, which is why I am committed to creating an environment of trust and understanding.

Nearly 60% of new mothers and 25% of fathers feel what you're feeling during pregnancy and/or during the first few years of their baby's life.I have experience working with parents just like you who may be experiencing this mixed bag of emotions when it comes to their baby!

I work collaboratively helping you to make sense of your experience, heal any pieces getting in the way, build new skills, so you ultimately can become more alive, aligned and peaceful.
