ADHD Therapists in Mississauga, ON

Many of us have become masters in pretending that things are fine, when in reality our lives seem to be falling apart. Inside we feel like we’re drowning: overwhelmed by emotion, lost, & hopeless as we try to carry the burden of unresolved trauma, pain, & life’s curveballs hurled our way. Pushing aside these problems to get through each day to manage life’s responsibilities, we find ourselves numb, depressed, anxious, self-medicating, isolating, angry, & struggling with relationships. Together, we can work towards confronting unhealthy behaviours, understanding emotions, & healing from past trauma to create transformational change.

Hello! My name is Krystle, and I appreciate you stopping by :). In therapy, we often explore life experiences, how they shape us, and guide our journey. Sometimes, we encounter stressors, uncertainty about the future, or feel lost in our thoughts.

Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, overwhelming thoughts or emotions, help with school or work, or daily life pressures, feeling connected and understood is what most of us seek.

I support adults with ADHD who want to lead meaningful, fulfilling lives. Adult ADHD can cause challenges with scheduling, time management, organization, relationships, and emotions. People can feel consistently behind, disorganized, overwhelmed, and easily frustrated. I help clients figure out what goals are most important to them, and we work together to organize the chaos so there is more time, energy, and patience for the things that really matter. You do not need an official ADHD diagnosis to work with me.
