Child Therapists in Central Toronto, Toronto, ON

***NOW ACCEPTING CLIENTS FOR IN-PERSON (SAUGA/VAUGHAN) AND PHONE/VIDEO*** Let’s be honest, life is hard, and in many ways, we juggle more today than we ever have! Life’s challenges can leave us feeling stressed, confused, demotivated, even helpless and hopeless. It can be a tough road to travel, but you don't have to walk it alone. As a therapist, I don’t think anyone should feel that way. I am committed to supporting my clients with guidance, care, and connected to the proper resources. With experience working with youth, students, adults, and parents, I enjoy collaborating with clients on a variety of challenges.

Sometimes, it can be difficult to live with big feelings, and we need to find healthy or different ways to cope. I have a decade of individual and family therapy experience working in both the public sector and private. I support 18+ teenagers, young adults and families through various challenges including anxiety, ADHD, emotion dysregulation, grief, and relationship conflicts. Whether it is a one-time session, brief work, or ongoing sessions, I believe everyone can use support at one time or another.

Choosing to enter into therapy is an act of strength and a process of self-discovery. Finding a good fit and building a strong therapeutic relationship is the key to achieving goals and lasting change. I consider my role to be one of facilitator, witness and coach; creating a safe container for your experience and your self-exploration.

I became a therapist because, just like you, I am human and have had my fair share of battles. It took a long time for me to get to where I am today. I recognize that in moments of hopelessness, it is hard to find determination, that depression can be scary, that anxiety can be overwhelming, and that traumatic experiences can leave one feeling emotionally exhausted and drained out. I acknowledge the stigma associated with mental health and in going to therapy. For this reason, I know how crucial it is to provide therapy that is client-centered, empathetic, and unique to each person’s needs.

*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* My focus when meeting with individuals is to provide a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment, while also engaging in insightful and compassionate conversations to help individuals make meaningful changes in their lives. We can all benefit from learning new skills/tools, and whether it is developing healthier coping strategies to deal with intense emotions and distressing thoughts, or develop more fulfilling interpersonal relationships, I would love to offer a safe space where we can talk about challenges you may be experiencing and to work on your goals together.

When you are feeling out of sorts. When you are feeling like you are no longer in control of your own story. When are looking to make a change and try a different path, I might just be the counsellor for you. I use a client centered approach to help you find your own story again and give you the tools to be content in the identity you are discovering for yourself. We can develop a solution that gives you more control over your own life. For online and out of London, ON, you can book here https://www.shiftcollab.com/therapists/kimberly-gautreau

You are constantly walking on eggshells. Always on high alert, your highly sensitive brain is always scanning other people's expressions to make sure everything is okay. You over-apologize, over-explain, over-share or disconnect and push your emotions deep down. You feel different - too emotional, too “much”. A sense of loneliness and longing for something you can’t describe looms in the background of everything you do. No matter what you try the feeling that there’s “something wrong with you” just won’t let up. You try to feel better - you have journaled, meditated, tried therapy, medication, breathwork…but nothing helps for long

I knew from a young age that I wanted to work in a field that allowed me to work with people and my faith has called me to serve those around me. My education includes a Diploma in Social Service Work from Niagara College, a Bachelor of Arts, a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Waterloo, and a Master of Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University. Growing up, I struggled with reconciling my indigenous identity with the pressures of assimilation and societal expectations. This inner conflict sparked my passion for understanding the complexities of cultural identity and the impact it has on mental health.
