Are you feeling stuck in your relationship? Have you been feeling disconnected? Do you feel that the same patterns keep repeating? Ellis Nicolson + Associates are relationship and anxiety specialists in Mississauga and Toronto. We have advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFT), a proven approach to helping couples bond and break free of negative patterns of interaction. We have 20 years of experience in helping individuals and couples break free of unhealthy patterns and find connection, inner peace and wellbeing. Proven results!
Since embarking on my training in psychotherapy in 2003, I have continually encountered evidence reaffirming the crucial role of the therapeutic relationship in facilitating positive outcomes. Together, we can establish and nurture a trusting therapeutic alliance, where your feelings and thoughts are not only valued but also progressively understood with increasing accuracy and awareness. This holds true for both individuals and couples seeking therapy.
My therapy practice is dedicated to providing a compassionate and personolized approach to mental health, offering a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgement. What sets my practice apart is my commitment to truly understanding each client's unique experiences and challenges, allowing for tailored therapeutic strategies that foster genuine growth and healing. I firmly believe in the power of personal empowermnet, as reflected in Brene Brown's quote, "If you own this story you get to write the ending". Together, we can work towards owning your story and creating a positive, fulfilling future.
Overcome any internal obstacles that are keeping you from achieving your own true potential. The past is no longer here chaining you to old ghosts. Break your internal chains, and see how it feels like to inhabit the real you.

At the core of my work with clients we seek to explore your unique responses to three fundamental questions; What direction do I want/need to shift my life towards? What actions can I start taking to make this a reality? What may be getting in the way of achieving this? Individual therapy provides a space for us to slow down and make space to deepen our connection with these questions and evaluate what change is required. This is done by thoroughly unpacking and organizing the jumble of thoughts, emotions, sensations, and narratives that can distract or get in the way and then learning how to take actions that reflect our values.
I am passionate about helping people overcome the obstacles/challenges keeping them from living their best and most-fulfilling lives. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, underwhelmed, or somewhere in between, you do not have to work through it alone. In a collaborative partnership, built on a foundation of genuine care, I am committed to working with you to explore, uncover, and work through whatever is getting in your way.
My approach to therapy is an integrative and holistic one that honours the unique experiences, lives, and worldviews of every client to identify and utilize their strengths, highlight their values, and deepen their sense of self. I look forward to connecting with you.
Recognizing that you may benefit from professional support is not a weakness but an amazing strength. By coming to this site, you have already taken the first step towards positive change and that takes courage! I know that for myself, the world feels like a very different place than it did a few years ago and many of us are feeling that impact. Therapeutic support is an excellent way to work through the changes of the past and to find ways to look toward a brighter future.
