Find a Therapist in York, Ontario.

If you choose to enter therapy, this is a place where you will be able to share and grow in a space that is caring, non-judgmental, supportive, safe and compassionate. You will benefit from building a strong relationship with the therapist by carrying over the skills you learn in this relationship into your other relationships, outside of therapy. You will be able to examine what is working and what is not working about your life, and what you want to change. You choose what is discussed. I am interested to understand your experiences, thoughts, and feelings and to help you feel more empowered, by guiding you to find new choices. We can work on childhood issues, if you wish.

Psychotherapy has been with humankind since our origins. However, about a century ago, psychologists tried to systematize and formalize psychotherapeutic interventions and, depending on their worldview and perspectives on human nature, they created various approaches that currently exceed 400, which can be confusing and misleading. A successful psychotherapy, regardless of the lenses and title, should acknowledge that every person has a unique mind and, as a result, a unique mental world. The therapist’s job is to help the client explore this world in a supportive environment. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

You can work through your life issues! Psychotherapy is different from counseling. Counseling is working with current life issues and discussing them, processing emotions, and creating action plans to improve issues. Psychotherapy is deeper healing work where we explore how your current life in various areas has potentially been impacted by your early life and your life until now, and the beliefs and schemas that you formulated through those. We work with both the past and present simultaneously to heel wounds that occurred, big or small, and how to transform those into shifted behavior in the now. We will work with your thoughts, your emotions, and your behaviors in a manner that is unique.
