Healing root causes for lasting change and wellbeing
Because real healing happens beneath the surface
When therapy doesn't seem to help
People often seek therapy because they want to feel better. It can be discouraging
when it isn’t a good fit, or when it doesn’t seem to bring real relief.
Effective therapy doesn’t only ease symptoms associated with stress, depression, anxiety, substance use, or relationship difficulties — it works at a deeper level. By addressing the root of the problem, meaningful and lasting change becomes possible.
Therapy that addresses root causes, not just symptoms
Trauma and adverse life experiences can leave lasting effects on the nervous system and the body. When these underlying patterns aren’t addressed, symptoms often return — even after years of effort.
Trauma-informed therapy can help reverse some of the biological and emotional changes associated with trauma, allowing people to experience greater regulation, resilience, and wellbeing.
How we support individuals, couples, and families
At Dr. Karma Guindon, RSW & Associates, we specialize in trauma therapy, individual psychotherapy, and couples counselling in Newmarket and Bolton, Ontario, with online services available across Ontario and Nova Scotia.
Because every person’s situation is unique, we tailor our approach to each individual or family. Our team uses trauma-informed, evidence-based therapies to support healing, strengthen relationships, and foster lasting change.
Therapeutic Approaches We Use
Our therapists are trained in a range of evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches, including DBR, EMDR, DBT, IFS, EFT, and CBT, allowing us to match the therapy to the person — not the other way around.
Taking the next step
If you’re considering therapy, you don’t need to have everything figured out. Many people arrive feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin — and that’s okay.
Whether you’re seeking support for trauma, relationship concerns, or finding that life feels harder than it should, we’re here to help you explore what might be most supportive for you or your family.
You’re welcome to meet with one of our experienced therapists in Newmarket or Bolton, or to connect with us online anywhere in Ontario or Nova Scotia.
