Uresha Salgado Claimed

Uresha Salgado – Individual and Family Counselling – Caledon, Ontario

Welcome to a space where genuine connection and support are paramount. As a registered psychotherapist with over 10 years of experience in both Ontario and British Columbia, my goal is to provide a warm, safe, and non-judgmental environment where you and your family can embark on a journey of self-exploration and positive change.

I work from a client-centered, anti-oppressive framework, focusing on helping you identify and overcome barriers in your environment, empowering you to advocate for your needs, and facilitating meaningful changes in your life. My approach integrates various therapeutic modalities including Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (MBCBT), tailored to your unique preferences and needs.

In my private practice and as a youth and family therapist at a non-profit organization, I emphasize the importance of developing authentic therapeutic relationships. I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults (ages 12-25) and their families, addressing issues such as family conflict, peer conflict, low self-confidence, loss and grief, anxiety, depression, self-injury, and suicidal ideation.

Counselling is most effective when it is collaborative. I involve clients in their treatment planning and encourage ongoing feedback to foster clarity, insight, self-awareness, and compassion. In addition to individual and family sessions, I co-facilitate support groups for adolescents/youth and parents.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Manitoba (B.A. Honours) and a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from the University of Western Ontario (M.Ed.). I am also a member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA) and have participated in various committees aimed at enhancing therapeutic services and engaging youth and families more effectively.

Individual and family counselling sessions are available via video or telephone. Contact me today to start your journey towards a more balanced and fulfilling life.
