Female Therapists in Barrie, ON

Hello my name is Catherine Sheehan and I am a Licensed Psychotherapist. I have over 25 years of experience in the mental health field providing counselling and support to individuals experiencing trauma, mental health, addiction, and emotional concerns in a variety of settings. My approach is collaborative, compassionate and integrative using a diverse range of therapeutic interventions to suit the unique needs of each individual, client or couple.

Being a teen, post-secondary student or adult today can be tough. Anxiety, ADHD or low mood can make you feel stuck, stressed, overwhelmed or exhausted from trying to cope every day, but there is hope! Are you tired of feeling anxious, overwhelmed or down all the time? Are you constantly worrying? Maybe your social life, grades or job are being impacted. If you struggle with anxiety, low mood, self-esteem, social anxiety, life transitions, time management, ADHD, ASD, OCD, learning disabilities, peer/relationships issues, reach out for help today.

NO WAIT-LIST & In-Person appts! Anxiety/Stress/Burnout, Prenatal/Postpartum, Couples/Relationships, Depression & Trauma- You feel overwhelmed by every little thing and are experiencing a lot of stress/anxiety as a result. You feel down about yourself for letting things "slip" but just can't find the motivation to make changes. Perhaps life just feels like "too much" right now and it's starting to take a toll on your self-esteem and ability to cope with your stress. When you have a lot on your plate and just cant seem to catch a break, it can be hard to find the good in life and think clearly. This is where therapy can help!

Often times we get stuck in various aspects of our life due to loss, emotional distress such as anxiety, panic or depression; trauma (childhood, sexual, physical and emotional abuse); relationship issues, such as separation and divorce, and coping issues such as stress and addictions, and we just need someone to help us navigate it all.

I am an experienced Registered Psychotherapist who specializes in youths and adults who may be experiencing various mental health challenges including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, disordered eating, substance use disorder, and emotional dysregulation.

VOX Mental Health is a person-centred, trauma informed counselling practice that is committed to creating a safe, judgement free, supportive environment where you can begin to use your voice. Whether it is setting boundaries, processing your family of origin, working through marriage difficulties, setting goals, or developing coping tools for anxiety, we are here to support you and create a tailor-made treatment plan unique to you and your situation. We offer both virtual and in-person sessions that service individuals, families, and couples in Ontario Canada.

My goal is to help you become the best version of yourself by building an authentic connection. After all, one of the most powerful tools for change is the therapeutic relationship. Since starting therapy can be challenging, I offer a non-judgemental, safe and validating environment that meets you where you are.

Upsetting news in the moment can lead to troubled days, and letting those troubles fester can create one heck of a miserable existence that impacts every facet of your life. What we don't learn from or resolve, inevitably circles back to remind us that change needs to happen. Believe me, we have all been there! A doctor or spouse tells you that you need to make a change due to a health scare or a relationship problem and you have no idea where to begin. You start asking the questions - How did I get here? How do I change it? Can I change it? Is it worth making all the effort for the change that you think you need or want?

Hi there! I'm glad you have taken the step to self improvement through therapy. I work with clients ages 7+ and specialize in challenges including parenting, familial conflict, intimate partner relationships, addiction, depression, anxiety, stress management, trauma, coping skills, couples therapy and more. As a Registered Social Worker, I strive to walk alongside my clients and act as a guide in the journey to successful life outcomes. I never underestimate the power of humour and believe that self-driven goal setting in a safe and non-judgmental environment is key to creating change.

As human beings, we have a natural craving for connection, and when that connection is not found within and/or found outside, it can create a disconnect, and prompt various ways of thinking, feeling, and being. My quick analogy goes something like this... Life starts off as a blank book that we, and the world, begin to fill. It can be a beautiful collaboration, but it can also feel quite messy when trying to differentiate between your voice and all of the other interpretations. In this process, we will explore your book, and find your voice, making meaningful connections that start from within.

I believe that all of us have an innate desire to move toward a healthier, happier way of being. Even seemingly unhealthy beliefs, feelings, and behaviours start to make sense and can change when explored with the help of a compassionate well trained professional. Over the past 25 years, I have had the privilege of assisting many adults, couples, youth, children, and families to find effective approaches and solutions to the challenges facing them. My passion is helping individuals, couples and families find healthy ways to cope with and grow from the challenges and adversities that life sometimes brings.

Visit me at www.insightcentre.ca. Life tends to offer us circumstances and relationships that challenge our ability to manage our feelings and cope with difficult situations. At times, we find ourselves vulnerable, lost, frustrated, angry, sad or weak and struggling to find solutions on our own. If this is the case for you, I am happy to offer all my knowledge and experience to assist you with working through your issues and promoting self-change and improvement in your relationships.

Change, even when positive, can leave you feeling lost: a new baby, an unexpected event or feeling like your life is suddenly not your own. Have you noticed small things are overwhelming, you feel irritable, are emotional out of nowhere and feel alone? If you are feeling unable to handle the impact of life - from parenthood, menopause, work or trauma - we can help. Now more than ever, parents are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body.

I am the Founder of Evolution Counselling Services. I have extensive work experience in the mental health field as a Clinical Lead, Program Manager and Mental Health Counsellor for almost 10 years. My knowledge and expertise extends to and with individuals suffering from diverse mental health diagnosis (Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, OCD, Eating Disorders, and experiences of Loss, Grief and Trauma) among others. At Evolution Counselling, I seek to empower individuals to achieve internal and external wellness.

Welcome to your next step in life: Your connection to the life you are living feels disconnected from your true self. Sadness, disappointment and overwhelm show up frequently and life feels like a challenge. Your transition into parenthood included many bumps along the road, shifts in relationships with people around you and difficulty processing grief that showed up with lost hope and expectations. Together we will examine how these patterns may have helped and hindered you in different ways to get to the root of your needs and nourishing your inner self as a parent, partner and all the roles you fill each day to find joy again.

The process of therapy can be daunting, and can bring up lots of different feelings, including nervousness, overwhelming thoughts, and intimidation, to name a few. But did you know it can also bring forward other things like silliness, validation, and just a space to breath and talk? As an RP (Qualifying), I hope to bring forward the latter and help create a safe, warm, comforting space for you to work through whatever has brought you into my office. Together, we can work out therapeutic goals, process life events, or just hold space for talking.

A Spiritual Health Therapy Session combines psychology with spirituality.

Working with youth, adults, couples and families, I genuinely enjoy meeting new people and learning about their lives. In a relaxed and supportive environment, we will work together to learn about your hopes and goals, and create a plan to achieve them. My goal is to remain approachable and easy to talk to and present a calming, positive outlook on life. I bring a curious and authentic interest in helping you live your best life. By meeting you where you are and exploring the areas that challenge you, I will encourage you to feel empowered and capable of making a change.
