When something throws us for a loop, our usual coping strategies may not be enough and we find ourselves feeling lost, afraid or unsure of what to do & how to manage. Psychotherapy and clinical counselling can help you regain your bearings and cultivate novel coping strategies to get you back on your feet. We offer modalities such as CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy), and more to help you cope. We also offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an evidenced based therapy for healing from trauma and distressing experiences. https://www.choosinghealth.ca/404-page daily 0.75 2025-11-18 https://www.choosinghealth.ca/psychotherapy-mississauga daily 0.75 2026-03-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/d2385f7f-fe9c-4ff6-989d-3e66502a3225/DSC_8621+w_+common+background.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/1a87afc7-8463-462e-8f36-dc12e100d888/DSC_8531+w_+common+background.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/2064cb94-e1fb-4c25-8dba-8fad91ff7be7/carly-+revised.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/01bfc8a2-642b-438b-8858-14d1ac39c44e/DSC_6490.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/5d764c4c-8a5b-49ac-9cfc-2f6e959ff13d/makirazakiuddinheadshot.png Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/93570183-2c8f-4ed2-a9b5-8080862eb796/DSC_1262+suggested+crop.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/483b8246-b639-4d78-9336-233785cda527/DSC_6453+-+2.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/20143db3-6b80-432c-a91c-709122ff2943/DSC_6610.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/53bbb22a-ac98-48e6-8f28-c57d3c4358bf/therapyontario.JPG Individual Therapy Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/1754715656879-2NC4C1ZO1C1YI8D7F5N6/GettyImages-1369377354.jpg Individual Therapy Mississauga - You’re not alone.

Once registered, you will be able to view their availability online and request appointments. That’s all there is to it! We recommend a good set of headphones or ear buds for online and phone meetings. We also recommend purchasing a notebook or journal so that you can take notes during your consultation call, and before, during or after appointments. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/42240253-981b-4e7b-81f0-96fc5054efe3/walkandtalk.JPG New to Therapy? Therapy Info for Mississauga and Oakville Therapy - Walk it out. Walk & Talk Sessions are one of the ways we meet with clients. These appointments are conducted over the phone while we walk outdoors in our respective locations.

It doesn’t have to feel like this We care so much for others - our kids, our parents, our partners. Who’s taking care of us? It’s not selfish to take care of you and to prioritize your health and well-being. It is the idea of “putting your oxygen mask on first”. When you take care of yourself, it benefits those you care for - it makes you the best version of yourself for you and those you love. Individual therapy is a form of self-care. Unlike couples or family therapy, individual therapy is solely focused on you. Be heard, be seen and be cared for. You (and your loved ones) will be better off for it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/53bbb22a-ac98-48e6-8f28-c57d3c4358bf/therapyontario.JPG Mississauga Therapy | Oakville Therapy | Services Overview - Individual Counseling At Choosing Health Counselling we work with people who find themselves feeling lost, anxious or depressed.

Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR works by helping the brain reprocess stuck memories so they can be stored in a more adaptive, less distressing way. EMDR is widely used to treat PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other trauma-related symptoms. It’s a structured, eight-phase approach that moves at your pace, with a strong emphasis on safety, stabilization, and resourcing before processing begins. https://www.choosinghealth.ca/contact daily 0.75 2026-01-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/2a9eccd9-cadf-4b68-bfb6-040b2b691577/contactmelissa.JPG Contact - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/1715548778208-7USNR8SDDSW2CFYD0G6M/Location+-+Black.png Contact - 1107 Lorne Park Rd Unit 207, Mississauga https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/1715548778212-0EFRBV9HSJM83AUHAU0T/Cellphone+-+Black.png Contact - (289)326-9989 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/1715548778215-R6G95YN0JC22TSA6XS4M/%40+Email+Alt+-+Black.png Contact - Email Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/1715548778218-8NOGH7KUY7UQYJW2H81G/Hours+-+Black.png Contact - Mon - Fri 8 am- 9 pm Weekends 8-6:30 https://www.choosinghealth.ca/couples-counselling-mississauga daily 0.75 2026-03-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/53bbb22a-ac98-48e6-8f28-c57d3c4358bf/therapyontario.JPG Couples Counselling in Mississauga | Couples Counselling in Oakville https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/01bfc8a2-642b-438b-8858-14d1ac39c44e/DSC_6490.jpg Couples Counselling in Mississauga | Couples Counselling in Oakville https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/93570183-2c8f-4ed2-a9b5-8080862eb796/DSC_1262+suggested+crop.jpg Couples Counselling in Mississauga | Couples Counselling in Oakville https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/5d764c4c-8a5b-49ac-9cfc-2f6e959ff13d/makirazakiuddinheadshot.png Couples Counselling in Mississauga | Couples Counselling in Oakville https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/00b7a3e6-d988-4322-81c8-3f094465d64c/marriagetherapy.JPG Couples Counselling in Mississauga | Couples Counselling in Oakville - Relationships don’t have to be so hard.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a proven therapy that helps people process and heal from difficult experiences, trauma, and distressing memories. Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain reprocess memories so they no longer feel as overwhelming. It’s effective for people dealing with PTSD, anxiety, grief, phobias, or the lingering effects of past events. By reducing emotional distress and shifting unhelpful beliefs, EMDR can help you feel calmer, more resilient, and more in control of your life. https://www.choosinghealth.ca/family-counselling-mississauga daily 0.75 2026-03-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/53bbb22a-ac98-48e6-8f28-c57d3c4358bf/therapyontario.JPG Mississauga Family Therapy | Oakville Family Therapy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/483b8246-b639-4d78-9336-233785cda527/DSC_6453+-+2.jpg Mississauga Family Therapy | Oakville Family Therapy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/5d764c4c-8a5b-49ac-9cfc-2f6e959ff13d/makirazakiuddinheadshot.png Mississauga Family Therapy | Oakville Family Therapy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/1754771154172-RT2DQSTCAE9Z2ODA1XZC/family+therapy+services+in+Ontario+Canada Mississauga Family Therapy | Oakville Family Therapy - Choose a happy family.

They share that they may have accessed therapy before, found it helpful, but then find themselves experiencing another “block” or obstacle that seems to hold them back from moving forward in their lives. My approach is trauma-informed which means I consider the impacts of life events on a person’s emotional and mental health by helping you understand how past experiences may be impacting you currently and how they may be unintentionally creating the obstacles that are holding you back. With compassion, I support people in realizing that they are the experts of their own lives and my role is to facilitate a safe, non-judgemental space for people to explore more about themselves and their experiences to help them find ways to move forward. https://www.choosinghealth.ca/clinical-supervision daily 0.75 2026-03-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66413244dd1d8d4435fe55df/69f9ac04-9d32-4425-940c-4817fe668ce6/MQ5_8276-107.JPG Clinical Supervision - Supervision sessions are tailored to your individual learning goals and may include: Case consultation and treatment planning Integration of evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches Development of clinical skills across areas such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship work Support with complex cases and clinical decision-making Guidance on professional identity, boundaries, and self-reflection A strong focus on self-care for therapists - including managing burnout, maintaining boundaries, and sustaining your well-being in clinical practice Melissa fosters a non-judgmental and encouraging environment where curiosity, accountability, and ongoing learning are prioritized.

Many individuals, couples, and families struggle silently with anxiety, relational conflict, trauma, and identity challenges without access to safe, informed, and culturally responsive care. My approach is to create therapeutic spaces that are both evidence-based and deeply human. I integrate modalities such as CBT, DBT, narrative therapy, and the Gottman Method, while grounding my work in cultural sensitivity and relational understanding. I focus not only on symptom reduction but on helping clients understand patterns, rebuild connection, and develop sustainable emotional tools. The result is meaningful, lasting change, clients experience improved emotional regulation, stronger relationships, and a greater sense of clarity and self-agency. Across my work in schools, private practice, and leadership roles, this has translated into more resilient individuals, healthier family systems, and communities that are better equipped to engage with mental health openly and constructively. https://www.choosinghealth.ca/store daily 0.75 2026-03-24
