Are you tired of struggling with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings that don't seem to go away? Are you looking to work through and understand your childhood experiences? Hi there, I’m Micaela, a licensed Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) In Mississauga specializing in guiding individuals aged 13 and above through the intricate journey of understanding how their past experiences shape their present relationships. With a focus on family dynamics and interpersonal connections, I offer a compassionate and safe space for clients to explore their inner reality with clarity and empathy. The therapeutic relationship is central to my work as a therapist, and no matter what technique I use, I prioritize creating an environment where clients feel heard, understood, and supported. 

 

Drawing from evidence-based therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems and Family Systems Theory, I aim to empower you to navigate your past and present with insight and resilience. I also have extensive experience working with anxiety, helping clients change the relationship they have with their thoughts and feelings. Additionally, I incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into my practice to help clients cultivate mindfulness, acceptance, and valued action in their lives. As Carl Rogers once said, "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." 

 

Whether you're seeking to unpack the impact of childhood trauma, understand the roles within your family system, manage anxiety, or cultivate healthier relationships, I'm here to support you in this step towards healing and self-discovery.
