Couples Counselling Therapists in Central Toronto, Toronto, ON

In my work as a Registered Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor, I work to create a space that is thoughtful, warm and connected. Together we’ll dig deep to explore underlying thoughts, feelings and behaviours to better learn what’s going on, where you might be getting stuck and pathways to move forward. I aim to help you live with a greater sense of authenticity, ease and meaning. I bring a relational, trauma-informed and attachment-based lens to my work.

BRIA provides women who are trying to conceive, pregnant, in early parenthood, postpartum and perimenopausal, with premium mental health care assessments, guidance and services. At these vulnerable stages of life, there is a high risk of mental health challenges. Many women struggle but don’t know where to turn to get help. At BRIA, you can get the right type of mental health care when you need it the most. We want to be sure that you connect with a vetted expert mental health care provider as soon as you reach out for help. We make it easy for you to get connected, engage in our services, and get better.

Relationships should enrich your life—they should bring you more joy, depth, and safety than you’d experience without them. In my work, I know what’s at stake—I know about the comfort and vitality that secure relationships can bring us, and I know too about the fear and loneliness that we can fall into when by nature, we’ve stopped paying attention. These lows can leave us remembering our early days and wondering where we’ve gone wrong, or whether we’ve ever been right for each other from the start. I know the intense pain of losing hope.

I am naturally drawn to a Solution Focused approach; however, I utilize interventions from several different modalities and maintain an overall humanistic approach to working with clients. I work with clients being challenged by anxiety, depression, and relationship issues in their daily lives. I believe that our personal experiences impact the way we view the world, and our emotions play a key role in our behaviour and choices.

I am psychologist and my areas of specialty include: sex therapy, couples therapy, mood and anxiety disorders, low self-worth, grief. As a sex therapist, I focus on a range of issues including: anxiety during sex, body image, low desire, discrepant or mismatched desire, infidelity, compulsive sexual behaviour/hypersexuality, & LGBTQ+ health. I know that it is not easy to ask for help, especially when sexual concerns are involved. Using research-informed techniques and a strengths-based approach, and with a whole lot of care and compassion, I will work with you to help you make changes that are empowering, meaningful, and lasting.

Marital issues can weigh heavily on our heart, leaving us feeling lost, confused, and disconnected from the partner we once cherished. Perhaps communication has become strained, leading to unresolved conflicts and increasing emotional distance. Trust may have been broken, leaving wounds that are yet to heal. You are longing for more intimacy, both emotional and physical, but find yourselves stuck in negative patterns that seem impossible to overcome. These challenges are slowly eroding the foundation of your relationship, leaving you with a sense of dissatisfaction, loneliness, and unmet needs.

Are you trying to take control of your emotions, unhealthy habits,or negative thoughts? Are you trying to improve your interpersonal skills, romantic or professional relationships,or seeking personal growth? Are you simply in need to talking about your life, decisions, and future plan?

I am Shawna - a passionate and innovative therapist who believes strong mental health is rooted in resilience and connection. Having worked exclusively with young cancer patients and their families over the past decade helped me realize that emotional pain and resilience are not mutually exclusive experiences - they live together. Through the process of recognizing and experiencing our deepest pain, fear and longing we can become better versions of ourselves. My style is empathic, intuitive, and interactive, and I uncover and guide my clients to use their untapped strengths, resilience, and potential for connection in their lives.

I support clients with addictions, understanding relapse prevention, and tackling issues like anxiety, depression, anger management, relationship challenges, navigating boundaries, and rebuilding self-esteem. My approach is typically person-centred and trauma-informed with a focus on client strengths.

You want to feel like you are in control and see changes as you go along. Together, we will develop a plan and determine the best approach that will move your forward.

Hello and Welcome! My name is Salwa and I am a Registered Social Worker at Relationship Counselling Toronto. I am passionate about helping couples manage conflict, enhance their communication skills and deepen their friendship and intimacy with each other in order to feel more emotionally close and connected. I believe that humans are wired to connect with others, and it can be incredibly painful to a couple when they find themselves feeling ‘stuck’ in constant fights, or feeling emotionally distant.

You’re not “broken.” You can heal. Whether you’re an individual or a couple, I believe it’s not your fault, even if you struggle to believe it. I offer a safe space where we’ll heal the root issues so you can make lasting change. We'll address your thoughts, emotions & neurobiology to heal all of you, allowing you to thrive in unexpected ways. The deep sense of peace, calm & joy on the other side of pain is something I want everyone to feel. I know there may be some worry & hesitation showing up right now. Know that I'm very comfortable to work with that. Rest assured, I’m dedicated to being the best I can be for you.

To grow and to heal. This is a choice we can make. If you are reading this, you have already taken a step in that direction. Perhaps you are wondering if therapy can help you take some more steps. These steps can be in many directions – doing better, achieving goals, reducing distress, managing difficult emotions, understanding unhelpful patterns, dealing with relationship issues, coming to terms with the issues of the past, or seeking answers to life’s challenging questions. We arrive in therapy with our own unique expectations. My goal is to help you take the steps towards meeting those expectations.
