Adolescent Therapy In-Person or Online

Adolescence has always been complicated. But the pressures teenagers face today — academic expectations, social media, shifting identities, family dynamics — have made it genuinely overwhelming for many young people.

Teen therapy at Reset gives adolescents a safe space that belongs entirely to them. A place where they can say the things they can't say at home, process what's happening at school, or simply begin to understand themselves better. Our therapists who work with teens are skilled at building real rapport with young people — not talking at them, but sitting alongside them.



We work with teenagers navigating anxiety, depression, self-harm, social struggles, identity questions, family conflict, grief, trauma, and more. If you're a parent wondering whether your teen might benefit from support — trust that instinct. The earlier teens access mental health services, the better equipped they are to carry those skills into adulthood.

Anger Management Mental Health Services 

Have you ever found yourself saying, “This isn’t who I am” after an outburst or a moment you regret? Whether it’s yelling at someone you care about or reacting in a way that feels out of character, anger can be difficult to manage—especially when it’s been building up over time.

Unexpressed or unprocessed emotions can sometimes erupt in ways that feel overwhelming or even embarrassing. If you’re noticing that your usual ways of coping aren’t helping, it may be time to reach out for support.

The good news is that change is possible. With the motivation to understand what’s beneath the anger, talk therapy can offer practical tools to help you respond more calmly, communicate more clearly, and feel more in control.



Behind most anger, there's something else — hurt, fear, shame, or a sense of injustice that hasn't been heard.

If you've found yourself reacting in ways that surprise or scare you — snapping at the people you love, saying things you regret, feeling like the anger comes from nowhere — it's worth exploring what's underneath. Anger management counselling at Reset isn't about suppressing how you feel. It's about understanding your anger and developing the tools to respond from a more grounded place.

Anxiety Therapy Services

Therapy for anxiety is one of the most well-supported areas in all of mental health therapy. Our team has helped hundreds of people learn to manage anxiety in ways that actually last — not by white-knuckling through it, but by understanding what's driving it and building real tools to respond differently.

Signs that anxiety counselling might help you: 

• Constant or near-constant worry, most days
• Physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, nausea, or muscle tension
• Avoiding situations that trigger anxious feelings
• Trouble sleeping, concentrating, or settling your thoughts
• Panic attacks or intense fear responses
• Withdrawing from relationships or responsibilities

Anxiety becomes a clinical concern when it's persistent — when it's been there most days for more than two weeks, when it's starting to affect your relationships, your work, your routines, or your sense of self.

Dealing with anxiety can look very different from person to person. Our approach to anxiety counselling includes CBT to challenge the thought patterns that fuel worry, mindfulness to help you stay grounded in the present moment, and practical coping strategies you can use right away. We'll also help you understand the connection between your thoughts, your emotions, and your body — because managing anxiety starts with understanding it.

Chronic Illness and Chronic Pain Talk Therapy

Living with a chronic illness or chronic pain affects far more than your body. It reshapes your identity, your relationships, your sense of what's possible. And because these challenges are often invisible to the people around you, the isolation can be profound.

Managing a long-term condition can lead to:

• Significant lifestyle changes
• A sense of isolation or helplessness
• Feelings of sadness or depression

You don’t have to face this alone. Our therapists offer compassionate mental health support for people navigating the emotional weight of long-term health conditions — helping you process the grief and frustration, find ways to care for your emotional well-being alongside your physical health, and navigate life's challenges with a stronger sense of self.

Couples Therapy Counselling Services in Barrie

Every relationship goes through seasons. But when the distance between you and your partner starts to feel permanent — when the same arguments keep surfacing, when communication has broken down, when trust has been damaged — it's worth getting some help.

Couples therapy is a space where both partners get to be heard. Our couples therapists in Barrie help you slow down the dynamic, understand what's really happening beneath the conflict, and rebuild the connection and communication your relationship needs. We support healthier communication by helping you and your partner genuinely understand each other better.

Whether you're dealing with a specific rupture — an affair, a major life stressor, a difference in values — or a slow drift that's been building for years, couples counselling can help. Many couples find that therapy not only repairs what was broken but helps them strengthen their relationship in ways they didn't expect.

Depression Therapy

Depression lies. It tells you things won't get better — that you've always been this way, that no one really understands, that there's no point in trying. That's the nature of it. And that's exactly why it's so hard to climb out of on your own.

Signs that depression counselling might help you:

• Persistent low mood or emotional numbness, most days for two or more weeks
• Loss of interest or pleasure in things you used to enjoy Changes in sleep, appetite, or energy
• Difficulty concentrating, making decisions, or remembering
• Feelings of worthlessness, guilt, or hopelessness
• Withdrawing from the people and activities in your life

Mental health counselling for depression focuses on helping you understand what's beneath the low mood. Your therapist will work with you to improve emotional well-being, reconnect with a sense of purpose, and develop the tools that make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

Therapy helps you identify patterns — in your thinking, your relationships, your behaviour — that may be keeping you stuck. Adult therapy for depression is most effective when it combines insight with practical strategy, and that's exactly the approach our team members take.

You don't have to pretend to be okay or have it all figured out. We are here to help.

Social Anxiety Counsellor in Barrie

Social anxiety is more than shyness. It's the fear of being seen and found lacking.

It’s not uncommon for social anxiety to occur alongside depression, panic attacks, or even substance use. Over time, it can impact your confidence, relationships, and even your career or academic opportunities.

If you regularly dread social situations, find yourself replaying conversations long after they've ended, avoid events or opportunities because the anxiety isn't worth it, or feel a persistent sense that you don't quite belong, social anxiety may be shaping your life in ways you haven't fully named yet.

The good news is that social anxiety is highly treatable. Our therapists use CBT and other evidence-based approaches to help you examine the beliefs driving the fear, build confidence gradually, and navigate life's challenges without constantly bracing for judgment.

Grief & Loss Psychotherapist

Grief is not a problem to be solved. It's an experience to be moved through — and it rarely follows the path people expect.



Loss can come in many forms: the death of someone you love, the end of a relationship or marriage, a miscarriage, a diagnosis, the loss of a career, or the collapse of a future you had planned on. And the grief that follows doesn't always look like tears and sadness. It can show up as anger, numbness, physical exhaustion, difficulty concentrating, or a general sense that nothing feels real anymore.

One of the most painful parts of grieving is feeling like you should be "over it" by now — or like the people around you have moved on while you're still stuck. Our therapists provide compassionate counselling for grief and loss that meets you wherever you are in the process, without timelines or expectations. We help you find ways to honor what you've lost, process the full weight of it, and gradually find your footing again.

Self-Harm and Suicidal Ideation Barrie Therapist

If you or someone you love is struggling with self-harm, please know: this is not something to handle alone, and it is not something to be ashamed of.

Self-harm is often a way of coping with emotional pain that has become too overwhelming to manage any other way. It makes sense as a survival strategy — even if it's one that creates harm.

Our therapists work with compassion and without judgment to help you develop new coping strategies, understand what's driving the behaviour, and find a safe space to process what's really going on underneath.

If you or a loved one are in immediate danger, please call 911 or visit the nearest Emergency Department to receive care.

Trauma and PTSD Psychotherapy using EMDR, IFS, IATP and more

You survived something. But part of you is still living there.

Trauma is one of the most misunderstood experiences a person can carry. It isn't limited to single dramatic events — trauma can result from childhood neglect, emotional abuse, accidents, medical experiences, sudden loss, or any situation in which you felt unsafe, helpless, or completely alone.

Signs that trauma therapy might help you:

• Intrusive memories, flashbacks, or vivid nightmares
• Avoiding people, places, or situations
• Feeling emotionally shut down or disconnected
• A persistent sense of danger, even in safe environments
• Difficulty concentrating or staying present 
• Feeling like you can't control your reactions

If you're experiencing these symptoms you may be experiencing PTSD or trauma responses. These are not signs that you're broken. They're signs that your nervous system did exactly what it was designed to do, and now it needs help coming back to safety.

Our trauma-informed therapists offer EMDR, IATP, IFS, CPT and mindfulness techniques to help you process what happened. Therapy helps our brain distinguish between what belongs in the past rather than the present.

Healing and growth after trauma is real. It takes time, and it takes the right support. We're here to walk that path with you.

Self-Esteem and Self-Worth Counselling

The way you feel about yourself shapes everything — your relationships, your choices, your ability to ask for what you need and set limits on what you don't.

Low self-esteem often has deep roots. It can develop from difficult childhood experiences, from years of harsh criticism — external or internal — or from a life that hasn't gone the way you hoped.

Therapy helps you examine those roots, challenge the narratives that have been running in the background, and build a more honest and compassionate sense of who you are.

This is the kind of work that ripples outward into every area of life.

Clients who work on self-esteem in therapy often find that their relationships improve, their decision-making gets clearer, and their sense of purpose grows stronger.
