EMDR Therapists in Oakville, ON

Welcome! I’m Michael Sa'd, a dedicated and compassionate Registered Social Worker specializing in individual and couple’s therapy. With over a decade of experience, I am empathetic, understanding, and supportive to help you navigate life's challenges and achieve meaningful personal growth. I utilize Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Counselling (SFT), and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). I tailor my approach to meet your unique needs, fostering a collaborative and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings.

The Therapy Centre is a full service psychology practice. We offer services to children, teens, adults, couples, and families. We offer psychological and neuropsychological assessment and treatment services for a wide variety of issues listed below. All of our clinicians are well trained in empirically validated treatment models, including: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Relational Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and EMDR. Each of our clinicians has an area of expertise and tailors treatment to target therapeutic goals.

Clarity is my hope for each person I see, whether we use Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy, Narrative approaches, EMDR, Mindfulness, yoga, polyvagal theory, or creative arts expression. Regardless if your struggle is with depression, anxiety, an eating disorder, or trauma, clarity means a better awareness and understanding of yourself in the current situation. Knowing yourself allows you to make choices best for you, consciously. It can be challenging to unravel and understand all of the often conflicting messages we hear and give ourselves, but it is crucial. This is the work I will support and guide you in.

We all have seemingly insurmountable personal struggles at times. If you are troubled and not coping well on your own, you may benefit from consulting with a registered psychologist. Problems such as depression, anxiety, sexual abuse, past traumatic events, the death of a loved one, workplace stress and relationship difficulties can all be helped through pyschotherapy. Having an experienced pyschologist with whom to consult breaks the isolation you may be currently feeling and can provide you with the perspective and tools to help you move your life forward in a direction and that feels right to you.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, or decreased self-esteem? And are you having difficulties with expressing yourself and feeling heard? My role as a registered psychotherapist is to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space for you to be heard and understood. As there is no "one size fits all" approach to psychotherapy, I offer various therapeutic techniques to alleviate symptoms of anxiety, depression, chronic pain, trauma, and difficult life transitions.

Therapy with me is about befriending oneself unconditionally, with compassion and kindness. Through traumas, life transitions, mistakes, and successes, mindfulness can be that constant strategy that allows you to be grounded firmly in your healing. My approach is holistic, and one that synthesizes the mind, body, and spirit. My work is rooted in yoga and Buddhist practices and my professional social work experience of 18 years. My practice is LGBTQIA2S-affirming, pro-fat and anti-racist. My areas of specialty are: anxiety, depression, chronic/terminal illness, grief, burnout, body image, relationships, and immigrant issues.

I became a therapist because of my own personal experiences with depression, anxiety, and insomnia. I am able to offer a unique perspective of someone who has been both a patient, and a therapist. I specialize in working with issues related to depression, anxiety, relationships, and trauma.

EMDR is a therapy that has you focus on a trigger or trauma while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (eye movement, tapping or tones), leading to a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the incident. Thoughts, behaviours, feelings, traumas or environmental triggers may be maintaining your stress, grief, anxiety, depression, addiction, or other issues. EMDR and other methods can improve your physical, emotional and psychological health and wellness to increase your sense of well‐being, alleviate feelings of stress, reframe negative thoughts, or work through any recent crises or past traumas.

An important part of healing is understanding the connection between mind and body and how it relates to experiences of anxiety, depression, and trauma. A fundamental component of recognizing your needs is to create an awareness of emotions. Our bodies signal us when there is discord, and through an experiential process, I focus on helping individuals make sense of their world. My work focuses on coping with difficult body sensations while also helping you begin to think and feel differently about your experiences, your emotions and ultimately yourself.

Our Cambridge office is open for in-person therapy. I support clients who'd like to feel more secure and intentional in navigating relationships. Do you have a pattern of people-pleasing, overworking and feeling burnt out? If so, let's explore the attachment patterns and past experiences which shape how you think, feel and act. We can then develop cognitive and body-based strategies help to build a foundation of self-trust and "home" in your body when facing intense feelings, emotions and thoughts.
