Hoarding
Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Hoarding isn't about being messy or lazy—it's about trauma, loss, control, and the desperate need to hold onto something when everything else feels uncertain. You won't face judgment here, only compassionate understanding of what's really happening beneath the clutter. Together, we'll explore the trauma and fears driving the need to keep everything, help you regulate the anxiety that surfaces when letting go, and give you agency over your own pace of change. You'll learn to distinguish between the possessions and what they represent, reclaim your space without shame, and build stability that doesn't depend on things. Healing happens through acceptance, not force.

Hoarding
Lexi Gayne Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
The objects we surround ourselves with often tell a story of seeking safety, comfort, or control. However, when your space becomes overwhelmed, it can lead to profound isolation and heavy shame. Your attachment to these belongings serves a purpose, and in our sessions, we will explore that without an ounce of judgment. Using specialized, highly practical tools, we will collaboratively untangle the intense anxiety and distress connected to letting things go. We will navigate this process together at a pace that feels genuinely safe for you, allowing you to gradually reclaim your physical environment and rediscover a sense of freedom and peace in your own home.

Hoarding
Trickett Psychotherapy & Counselling

Hoarding is more than having a cluttered home. It can make it extremely difficult to let go of possessions, even when they no longer serve a purpose, leading to stress, anxiety, shame, and challenges in daily life. Often, hoarding is connected to deeper emotional experiences, such as trauma, grief, anxiety, or depression. At Trickett Psychotherapy & Counselling, we provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy to help adults understand the underlying causes of hoarding, reduce emotional distress, and gradually build healthier habits in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. We offer hoarding therapy in Guelph and secure online therapy across Ontario. Contact us today to book your consultation and take the first step toward creating a healthier, more manageable life.

Hoarding
Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Do you sometimes struggle to let go of personal possessions even though on some level you know you should get rid of them? If so, do not worry, we have all dealt with our pain in various ways and hoarding is one of many behaviours that people engage in to fulfill a need or desire that is currently unmet. A large part of our work together will be to explore the history of the hoarding behaviour. When did it first begin? What was going on for you at the time? and additional factors that assist with better understanding your relationship to the hoarding behaviour. We will also explore the personal value that you attach to keeping personal items. If you are continuing to engage in this behaviour, it is probably serving you well in some way. Once clients understand the benefits of hoarding they view themselves through a nonjudgmental and compassionate lens, which is fundamental to the healing process. We will also explore the drawbacks of hoarding to help you understand what parts of your behaviour you feel comfortable to sustain and the areas in which you would like to see changes. Together we can devise a treatment plan that fits to your unique history, needs, and values.
