Ms Sue Gonsalves

Psychotherapist (Registered)

“I offer in-person and virtual sessions. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals to create change in their lives. Registered Psychotherapist with nearly 20 years experience.”

About Me

With nearly two decades of experience, I offer a steady, non-judgmental space where you can truly be yourself. My aim is to help you explore what's holding you back and discover new ways to navigate life. In our in-person or virtual sessions, we'll work together at your pace. This supportive environment is ideal for individuals seeking to understand themselves and create lasting change.

Approach

Steady, calm support guides how I hold sessions, blending careful listening with clear, practical steps so progress feels manageable. From my Mississauga office or through English-language online meetings, we move at a pace that fits your life and responsibilities. Expect focused exploration of thoughts, patterns and small experiments between meetings—breath-based grounding, reflected choices and skill practice that build confidence. This way of working often suits adults navigating anxiety, low mood, parenting challenges or the strain of major life changes.
