ADHD Therapists in Ontario

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.

Is it time for you, or someone you know, to finally 'Get Real', in their lives? At 'Get Real', Addiction Counselling, you will find an accredited, experienced and caring professional. The primary focus is comprehensive therapy for substance use or addiction, including behavioural problems and related con-current disorders such as ADHD, Anxiety & Depression. Clients include individuals and families struggling with the effect of substance abuse / addiction(s) on their lives. I am a Ontario Registered Psychotherapist, and hold both Canadian & American International Addiction Counselling Certificates.

I am committed to helping clients build resilience and create a value-driven life. I believe in nurturing self-compassion and developing skills to engage with and overcome struggles. This happens through validation, exploration, and challenge and building a trusting, open relationship with my clients. My clients are experiencing anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, relational challenges, behavioral issues, ADHD, and coping with daily life. I specialize in supporting teens, young adults, families, and adults, in a safe, inclusive, and relaxed environment. This means a therapeutic space that is warm, welcoming, and affirming.

I work with both youth and adults experiencing mental health concerns including ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, work/school stress, and topics of gender/sexuality. I am passionate about creating a therapeutic experience tailored to each client through collaboration and an integrative approach that draws on a variety of humanistic modalities.

ADHD, Stress/Anxiety, Self-Esteem, LGBTQIA+. You have a hard time "turning off" your racing mind and are feeling stressed. It might be hard for you to focus and you find yourself struggling to get things done. Perhaps you are struggling with procrastination, low motivation, or feeling in a "funk" because life is just too much sometimes. When you are stressed and overwhelmed, it can be hard to feel good about yourself and make the changes you'd like to see. If you are ready to work on yourself and start feeling better, you have come to the right place! You deserve to start feeling like YOU again.

I work with children, youth and adults. Some of my areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, identity and self-understanding, ADD/ADHD, and trauma (PTSD). I also have experience working with people who struggle with addictions, suicide ideation, and self-harm. My work perspective is based on the Strengths Model, which means that I believe that once we understand the root of our weaknesses, we can turn them into strengths. In addition, my approach is informed by the Narrative and Attachment Theory models, tailored to the specific needs of the person and/or family.

True life is lived when little changes occur. I sincerely believe change is possible in all of us with the support and proper guidance. Everyone possesses the tools they need to heal and fully realize their life's ambitions. I believe in empowering you to develop your own toolbox of strategies and skills to find strength, resilience and emotional growth. With the proper tool, every issue can be solved

Life can feel hard some times and I know reaching out for support is an act of self compassion. Welcome. Working with client's interests/comfort I interweave neurobiology, body based (somatic) interventions and expressive arts therapy, as well as ‘talk therapy’. These are engaged through a resilience and trauma informed lens. No creative/ artistic experience necessary, only your curiosity. I both have life and clinical experience with ADHD and learning differences and work with clients who live with ADHD. Particularly late treatment or late diagnosis, and especially where it overlaps with relationships, career and parenting.

Living with a chronic illness or disability, or being a family caregiver for a loved one, is complicated and life-changing. Chronic pain, fatigue, medical trauma, burnout, and isolation are all very real challenges that can take a negative toll on your mental health and impact your relationships. I know you have had to do a ton of advocating for yourself or your loved one to ensure needs are being met, and there still remain far too many barriers to getting the support you deserve. You should not have to do this alone. It IS possible to regain control of your life and have a supportive team collaborating with you to meet your goals!

Racing heart, shaking hands, breathlessness, and an urgent sense of imminent danger are some of the signs of anxiety. Some people have heart palpitations or flutters, prickling sensations, choking sensations, dizziness or nausea. It's important to rule out medical factors, but if a doctor has told you that your symptoms are being caused by stress or anxiety, know that this is a highly treatable condition and it doesn't mean you're weak or crazy. In fact, feeling like you're losing your mind and having difficulty focusing are features of extreme anxiety! We can address this.

No Wait List. I’m glad you’re here! If you’ve come across my page, chances are you’re feeling stuck in some part of your life. I work with adults, teens, and pre-teens to cope with change, communicate needs in relationships, and develop skills to manage stress at work or school.

Accepting new clients! Congratulations on starting your healing journey! Therapy through natural conversation with an experienced, relatable and personable counsellor can make your experience feel less isolating and daunting. This is your safe space to express yourself fully and understand that you are never alone in working through your life challenges.

My clients experience feelings of overwhelm, neglect, isolation, and anxiety. They feel drained and seek a safe, inclusive environment where they can be heard. Together, we delve into therapeutic approaches aimed at fostering connection and empathy, developing kindness and self-compassion, and devising strategies for coping and growth. My clients often suffer from PMDD or severe PMS, ADHD that is often diagnosed later in life, and resulting anxiety, depression, and emotional dysregulation that often goes along with these.

Are you struggling with painful feelings? Not sure why? I would be honoured to walk with you to help you uncover the answers that are already within you. My approach is warm, compassionate, non- judgmental, and non-directive. My goal is to create a safe space for you and I to explore your challenges together. I have a background helping neuro- divergent clients including youth diagnosed with Autism and ADHD and I also work with struggles related to anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, self- esteem, and attachment wounds.

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.

English and French. Stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions are common difficulties experienced by most people. However, when these issues begin to negatively impact your life or become too much to handle, we need help identifying tools and strategies to resolve these issues and achieve our goals. We can work together to find the right tools and skills to cope, grow, and reconnect with yourself and loved ones. As a therapist, I value your lived experiences and work with the approaches that best fit my client’s needs. Please get in touch so we can discuss how I can help you, your child or your couple.

Are you interested in CBT, Mindfulness based approaches to therapy including meditation, breathing techniques and art therapy? If this sounds familiar, please reach out and feel confident that you will be seen and heard.
