✨Welcome to Our Team: Ryan LeRoux, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)✨

Now Accepting New Clients for January 2026!

Ryan is here to walk alongside you with compassion and curiosity whether you’re experiencing anxiety, navigating a life transition, facing challenges in relationships, or feeling disconnected from your sense of identity. Ryan will help build a collaborative and non-judgmental space where your emotions, experiences, and inner world are explored at a pace that is comfortable for you.

Ryan’s therapeutic style is grounded in a psychodynamic approach, focusing on how our early experiences and attachments can influence patterns in adulthood. By gently exploring these connections, he can work with you toward healing, strengthening emotional awareness, and creating more meaningful relationships with others and with yourself. Ryan’s approach is flexible and tailored around your unique story by recognizing your strengths, exploring what has shaped you, and identifying what truly matters to you.

We understand how the holiday season can be stressful, with full calendars, family expectations, and emotional pressure. That’s why it’s so important to practice self-care and stay connected to your needs.

In preparation for the busy holiday season, spend some time checking in with yourself and consider engaging in self-care:

🌿Set gentle boundaries: It’s okay to say no to events or expectations that drain you.
🪞Reflect without judgment: Your feelings are valid, even if they’re complicated.
🎉Celebrate your wins: Small steps count too; acknowledge your efforts.
🚪Give yourself exits: Plan breaks, step outside, or leave early if you need to.
🤝Reach out for support: You don’t have to do this alone.

At Newcastle Counselling Services, our therapists are here to support you through the holiday season and beyond.

Thank you to @ in Bowmanville for welcoming Newcastle Counselling Services into your beautiful space for our 2025 Holiday Party.

We’re so grateful for your kindness, hospitality, and the calming atmosphere you created for our team. It was the perfect setting to unwind, connect, and celebrate another meaningful year of supporting our community.

As a counselling practice, we’re always reminding others of the importance of self-care, and experiences like this are a powerful reminder to practice it ourselves. Taking time to slow down, breathe, and care for our own wellbeing allows us to continue giving our best to the people we support.

We love partnering with and supporting local businesses, and Bella Vida truly made this event special for all of us. 🤍✨

Have you heard of Cognitive Distortions? Here’s what they are and how to challenge these unhelpful thinking patterns. 🧠✨

We all experience distorted thoughts, but sometimes those automatic, negative ways of thinking can make situations feel worse than they are. Try these 5 steps to challenge these distortions with self-compassion:

1️⃣ Identify the Distortion
Notice when your thoughts sound extreme. This could involve thoughts that include terms like “always,” “never,” or “should.”

2️⃣ Label the Thought
Recognize when you have a cognitive distortion, then label it as such as naming it helps you see it for what it is

3️⃣ Check the evidence
Ask yourself: What facts relate to this thought? Are these thoughts grounded in evidence? Often, reality is more balanced than the thought suggests.

4️⃣ Reframe the Distorted Thought
Find a more balanced way to look at the situation. “I made a mistake, but that doesn’t mean I’m a failure.”

5️⃣ Practice self-compassion
Remind yourself that everyone has distorted thoughts. Awareness and kindness make it easier to change them over time. Be gentle with yourself as you learn to challenge them.

November is Movember! It is an opportunity for people and communities to unite behind men’s mental health and su***de prevention. Movember is the perfect opportunity to connect with the fathers, brothers, sons, and other men in your life about mental health. Use the four simple steps of ALEC to reach out today:

💬Ask how they’re feeling and mention any changes you’ve picked up on. “You haven’t seemed yourself lately – are you feeling OK?”
👂Listen with your full attention, you hear them, and that you aren’t judging them. “That can't be easy – how long have you felt this way?”
📣Encourage action by helping them focus on simple things that might improve how they feel. Are they getting enough sleep? What has helped them in the past? Suggest they reach out to those they trust.
🫶Check in by suggesting you catch up soon - in person if you can. This helps show that you care and you can get a sense of how they’re feeling.

At Newcastle Counselling Services we welcome everyone at any stage in their mental health journey. We provide individual, family, and couples counselling, in person and online, to children, teens and adults. We offer a non-judgmental safe space to explore your mental health needs at your own pace. Our therapists will collaborate with you to develop a treatment plan to help you reach your mental health goals in a safe and supportive environment.

If you’re having thoughts of su***de, or are worried about someone else, connect to a crisis responder for help without judgment:
-Durham Mental Health Services - 905-666-0483
-Kids Help Phone - call 1-800-688-6868 or text CONNECT to 686868
-Distress Centre Durham - 905-430-2522
-Su***de Crisis Helpline - Talk or Text 9-8-8
