Mental Health Therapy

Get support for anxiety, depression, substance-use concerns, and challenges affecting life at home or work. Mental Health Support offers phone counselling for people in Newmarket and Barrie.

Speak with a mental health therapist about what is happening and what you want to change. Our approach brings together cognitive therapy, mindfulness, and life planning to help you work towards goals that matter to you.

Counselling for Life at Home and Work

Our counselling and therapy services address concerns affecting your relationships with family, spouses, and colleagues. We help you understand these difficulties, develop ways to cope, and work towards healthier relationships.

Phone Therapy

Speak with us by phone from Newmarket or Barrie. Telephone sessions give you access to counselling without travelling to our Guelph office.

Depression Support

We help you work through low mood and its effects on daily life. Cognitive therapy and strengths-focused support guide our work towards your personal goals.

Anxiety Support

We help you examine anxious thinking and work on responses to stressful situations, with attention to coping and staying involved in everyday life.

Addiction Support

We help you explore substance use, understand the pressures connected with it, and develop other ways of coping with stress.

Three Principles Guide Our Approach

Our work connects counselling with the changes you want to make. Three principles help us examine what is happening now and establish a direction for moving forward.

Knowing What Is True in Your Thinking

We help you examine thoughts and assumptions, look at the evidence behind them, and understand how they affect your feelings and decisions. This work creates room to consider other perspectives.

Living in the NOW (Mindfulness-based CBT)

We bring mindfulness and cognitive behavioural approaches together to help you notice present thoughts, feelings, and reactions. We work on recognising these patterns and considering how you respond.

Being Clear About What You Want Your Life to Be

We help you identify your values, recognise your strengths, and clarify your goals. Life planning connects this understanding with decisions about relationships, work, and personal priorities.

We Specialize in Supporting addictions and mental health issues

We help people address their mental health concerns affecting their relationships, family life, and work. Our counselling focuses on understanding these difficulties, building on personal strengths, and working towards meaningful changes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my insurance cover counselling with Mental Health Support?

We specialized in non-insurance covered clients. Our rates are very affordable and flex to what you can afford.

Can I contact you if I am unsure what kind of counselling I need?

Yes. Tell us what is concerning you or what you would like to change. You do not need to choose a therapy approach before asking about our services.

Can a family member be involved in my counselling?

We can discuss involving family members if you want their participation and it is appropriate to your support. Family involvement is your choice, not a requirement.

Do I need to be religious to work with Tim?

No. Tim offers a faith perspective when clients request it. You do not need to hold a particular belief or include spiritual discussion in your counselling.

What do I need for a phone counselling session?

Choose a quiet, private place where you can speak without interruptions and check your phone connection. Confirm the appointment time and who will make the call when booking.

How many counselling sessions will I need?

There is no fixed number that suits everyone. Your concerns, goals, and progress affect how much support you may need. Discuss session frequency and review your needs with Tim.
