Are you having a difficult time handling the struggles in your life? Could you use an expert opinion on what you’re going through, or a non-judgmental ear just to listen?
Do you think you could benefit the most from individualized attention?
Are you hesitant to talk to others about your problems?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, individual therapy could be the solution you’ve been seeking. Individual therapy differs from alternative therapy methods in that you are the sole focus of a single therapist who helps you develop and achieve your goals for therapy. And you’re in the right place for it! At Connect Cognitive Therapy, individual therapy is at the heart of what we do. We offer personalized, evidence-based support to help adults and adolescents in Mississauga, Ontario, navigate life’s challenges and improve their emotional well-being. Whether you’re dealing with general stress, emotional distress, or adjusting to difficult life events, our experienced team of psychologists, psychotherapists, and social workers is here to guide you.
When Does the Situation Call for Therapy?
If you’ve been feeling hopeless or lost lately, or struggling with a problem in your life that feels insurmountable, individual therapy could help you improve your everyday life. Individual therapy helps you win against whatever you’re battling by putting a real expert in your corner: a professional therapist. So, if this sounds like you…
- You keep worrying about the same problem over and over
- You don’t know who you could ever trust with knowing about your secret struggle
- You wish there were somebody who could tell you why you feel this way
- You’re interested in therapy, but you don’t want to give up total control
- Other areas of your life are being negatively impacted by your struggle
- You need somebody to listen to you and your feelings for once
- You’re interested in therapy, but not sure how it could fit into your life
…Then individual therapy could be right for you.
Types of Therapy Available at Connect Cognitive Therapy

- Therapy for anxiety – Learn how to manage worry, panic, and social anxiety through proven CBT strategies
- Therapy for depression – Rebuild motivation, reduce negative thinking, and regain a sense of purpose
- Addiction counselling – Support for individuals navigating substance use or behavioural addictions
- Chronic illness therapy – Emotional support for managing life with long-term health conditions
- Marriage and family counseling – Strengthen communication and resolve conflict within family systems
- Trauma-informed therapy – Heal from past trauma in a safe, validating environment
- Therapy for teens – Age-appropriate support for adolescents struggling with stress, mood, or identity issues
We believe therapy should be collaborative, practical, and tailored to your unique goals and needs. When you seek care from our practice, we take the time to match you with a therapist who fits your personality and therapeutic goals. If you want more control over the pacing of your therapy, the methods used, the amount of feedback you receive, and the timing of your sessions, you owe it to yourself to look into individual therapy.
