Finding a Therapist in Chatham-Kent

If you’re searching for a therapist in Chatham-Kent, you’re not alone — more people across Ontario are reaching out for support with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions and other challenges, and finding the right local fit matters.

At Once Upon a Time Therapy, we offer in-person counselling and therapy in Chatham, along with virtual (video or phone) sessions for anyone who prefers to meet from home or somewhere else. Our approach blends traditional talk therapy with narrative and expressive art therapy methods, including Narrative Comic Strip Therapy® — a new, creative, engaging way to process experiences that can be especially helpful for children and teens who find it hard to talk about difficult things directly.

Who We Support

We work with children, teens, and adults in Chatham-Kent facing:

• Anxiety and stress

• Depression and low mood

• Trauma and difficult life experiences

• Grief and loss

• ADHD-related challenges

• Life transitions

• Relationship difficulties, and more

Why Local Therapy Matters

Whether you’re a parent looking for the support of a Chatham-Kent counsellor for your child, or an adult navigating a hard life chapter, having someone nearby — with evening and weekend availability — removes some of the barriers that keep people from getting help.

What to Expect

We offer direct billing to reduce upfront costs, and both in-person and telehealth (phone or video) appointments so you can choose what feels most comfortable. Every person’s story is different, and therapy should reflect that.
