Hoarding
Dr. Patrick McGrath
Psychologist, O.C., C. Psychologist
Accumulating and holding onto belongings can often feel like a protective way to find safety, comfort, or meaning, but when clutter begins to take over your living spaces and daily life, it can feel overwhelming and deeply isolating. You deserve a safe, compassionate, and entirely non-judgmental space to unpack these challenges. Using an evidence-based cognitive behavioural approach, we will work collaboratively at your own pace to understand the emotional connections to your belongings, build practical decision-making skills, and help you reclaim your home as a peaceful, functional space.

Hoarding
Trickett Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapists , Counsellors
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.

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.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Hoarding often reflects an unhealthy attachment rooted in unmet needs. In therapy, by providing a safe and fulfilling therapeutic relationship, the part of the self that was never fully attached can find its needs met. This allows the unhealthy attachment, to objects or behaviors to naturally drop.
