Melissa Letourneau
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
My approach is grounded in authenticity, trust, and often humour. I believe you have the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges and I strive to help empower you to facilitate change in therapy. Each family is difference, and therapy can offer a space to explore your expectations and approaches to parenting. I work with individuals, couples, children and families offering a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit. I carry a systemic lens, exploring the way culture, community and family shape our experiences and aspirations. I am committed to strength-based and anti-oppressive practice in my work. I recognize the importance and responsibility I have as a therapist, to address the systemic inequalities impacting clients in their lives.

Barbara Freedman
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.Ed., OAMHP(Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals-2704-G)
As the owner, and director of The Growing Tree Preschool for seven years, I enjoyed being a mentor to parents, who would often seek me out to discuss challenges, pertaining to their children. I have worked together with them to modify their children’s behavior and help their youngsters develop many new values and skills. As part of my work as a counsellor for those who qualified for Victim Services I worked with many children employing such tools as art and play therapy to impart healthy expression as well as emotional intelligence skills. My experience in this area includes delivering workshops for Parents, Educators & Childcare Professionals at the YMYWCA in the Ottawa Region, in addition to the Childcare Information Speakers’ Bureau at Ontario Early Years Centers. My responsibilities as a counsellor for Life Span Services of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania USA, Adoption and Foster Care included delivering my skills to foster parents. Through teaching for the Ottawa Board of Education, in addition to tutoring, I instructed a variety of children with special needs. This includes those with social, behavioral , as well as a variety of learning challenges. I would be pleased to consult with parents on any topic which interests them from separation anxiety to issues involving ADHD.

Most people know that there is no parenting manual they can reference to always get the "right" answer. That's because parenting is complex; a one size fits all approach doesn't cut it. If you're looking for support with parenting please don't hesitate to reach out, it'd be wonderful to connect.

Greater Sudbury is the largest city in Northern Ontario and a regional centre for mining, healthcare, and education in a geographically vast and isolated part of Canada, where the distance from major urban centres and the realities of a resource-based economy shape the mental health landscape in specific ways. The city has a significant Indigenous population and a French-speaking minority, and mental health services that are culturally and linguistically responsive to both communities are an important part of the care landscape. Harsh winters, geographic isolation, and the cyclical economic pressures of a mining-dependent economy contribute to elevated rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use, and Laurentian University's psychology programs have historically contributed to the local supply of trained professionals. Both public and private therapy services are available, though access to specialized care can require telehealth or travel to southern Ontario.
