Female Therapists in Newmarket, ON

Life presents us with many ups and downs. At times, we need someone who will listen in a way that allows us to feel heard. My intention as a therapist is to create a space for honest conversations, leading to a path of self awareness and self discovery. I am a Registered Social Worker and I have a Masters in Social Work from Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly known as Ryerson University). I have extensive experience supporting clients of all ages from marginalized communities, who struggle with isolation, life transitions, and academic challenges.

Children are constantly evolving and growing and during their journey they sometimes need some support to encourage and help them to thrive in their relationships and connections with others; or to develop strategies to support emotional regulation, social skills, life skills, anxiety reduction, concentration and focus, or processing of traumatic events. During this time parents are also growing and evolving. Parenting can be both the most challenging and rewarding experience we have but sometimes during those challenging times we need some support.

Unsupported grief risks becoming trauma. Finding a safe way to be with your Grief is the key. Through this process, grief can transform into honouring and integration. I offer therapy for Ontario residents, and online supports globally. I offer an Urgent Consultation, a Self Paced Course and a Private Membership Community. Intention, Information, Inspiration, and Intuition guide my services. Grief needs a Revolution. Join The Grievolution! Let's do Grief Differently. I have been providing Professional Grief Support for over twenty years.

Welcome to my page! I am extremely happy that you have made the first step to look for support.

I offer both virtual and in-person sessions. I embrace working with clients with different age groups such as Children, Youth, and Adults. I also offer Individual, Couples or Family counselling based on your needs and goals. I am also passionate about working with clients with Autism and Social Needs.

I offer a therapy space where you can be yourself, a place that welcomes you as you are, in all your true colours, with your raw & unedited thoughts & emotions. Whatever you're experiencing, you're not alone. Together, we can navigate your current circumstances and find healthier coping mechanisms to move you towards your goals.

Are you or someone you care for experiencing worry, feelings of overwhelm, low mood, a difficult life transition, social or behavioural challenges, or a previous trauma that is impacting your overall well-being? If so, you are not alone. If you are seeking support, it is never too late (or too early!) to make a positive change.

The pressures of life can leave us feeling defeated, misunderstood and hopeless. Despite trying our best, there are moments where we feel overwhelmed and out of control. We want things to change, but may not know where to begin - making us feel frustrated and stuck. My approach is to work collaboratively, to help support you in discovering ways to overcome these struggles. I assist clients who are experiencing relationship problems, trauma, grief, anxiety and depression. As a therapist trained in evidence based techniques my approach is client centered and flexible - one size does not fit all.

Are you spending a lot of time on intrusive thoughts? Do you feel the urge to perform behaviours to relieve this anxiety?

You are the expert of your life, I am here to work collaboratively with you to reach your goals and support your mental wellness.

You will understand how your anxiety was created and you will learn how to take your power back to create the life you want. With your new tools, you will learn new ways to navigate life and its challenges.

I believe that clients are the experts in their life and aim to act as a guide in helping them develop a deeper understanding of themselves. I am passionate about working with clients from a holistic perspective that focuses on the interconnectedness of the whole being – the mind, body and soul. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, healing, integrative counselling approach by combining traditional talk therapy with alternative treatments, such as Breathwork, EFT Tapping/Thought Field Therapy, Mindfulness and Reiki Energy Healing modalities when appropriate.

Welcome, I am so glad you are here. My name is Melissa Louka, the proud owner of Under The Oak Psychotherapy.

Life can be hard at times, and when we meet the messy moments it can feel isolating, overwhelming, and hopeless. We are human, after all. It makes sense that we may find ourselves stuck at times - stuck in our feelings, thoughts, and behaviours and it can be tough to shift things in the right direction, especially if we are doing it on our own. With honesty and compassion, therapy is a place to explore what you're navigating and create sustainable change that supports your healing and growth. I support women who are wanting to shift out of survival mode so they can feel grounded, confident, and free.

It can be difficult trying to cope with distressing times on your own. Sometimes friends and family can only help so much. My role is to give you caring, non-judgmental support so that you can make sense of your emotions and gain a clearer picture of how your past plays a role in your current relationships. You will begin by telling me about yourself and the reasons why you've come to therapy and then we can explore together new ways of reflecting and interacting that will lead to a more fulfilling life.

Perhaps you can pinpoint the exact event when things changed, or perhaps it happened over time. Either way, you feel stuck, alone or like you don’t know who you are anymore. You constantly feel overwhelmed and you find yourself unable to focus or relax. Your reactions can feel overly intense: sometimes you know what triggered you, sometimes you don’t, and yet other times it feels like everything is a trigger. Maybe this brings up beliefs of “something’s wrong with me” or “I’m broken.” You find yourself trying to numb those memories, thoughts and feelings with anything that can distract you. But this is not how you want things to be.

I am a Registered Social Worker & psychotherapist practicing across Ontario. In my work, I get to help people just like you break free from what is keeping them "stuck" in their lives and start venturing toward their goals. I have a passion for helping people unlock thier potential to become the best version of themselves. Together, we will begin to unpack the events /people in your life that may have been ( or perhaps are currently) blocking you from growth and discovering your true potential. We will discover your personal "triggers", negative thought patterns and use the appropriate therapeutic tools to change and challenge them

I have been a therapist for over 30 years committed to helping people . One area I provide specialized services in is substance misuse/abuse. Are you struggling with your own use of substances? Do you often drink too much and want to change this pattern? Have you cut back your drinking only to slip back into old patterns? Are you a partner or family member that is concerned or affected by someone's use of alcohol or drugs? We can work together to understand the function of the substance and identify goals that will help you move forward in your life and reduce the negative impact substances have had in the past.

Are you in a place in your life where you require emotional support? Perhaps you know someone who does? We have all struggled, or are struggling, and it is important to remember that as human beings, it is common to experience a variety of hardships at different times in life. Newmarket Psychotherapy Team is a growing team of collaborative therapists with a nurturing space for you to visit, where a therapist of your choice can provide you with the kind of support that you require and deserve.
