Connect with Dorian R. Schwartz
I provide individual therapy to those who are experiencing issues related to anxiety, self-esteem, depression, OCD, and managing challenging emotions. My role as a therapist is to offer a safe space to help you gain insight into the underlying causes of your challenges, and to learn helpful coping strategies in order to create the meaningful changes that you wish to see. I work well with individuals who wish to cope with anxiety and self-esteem issues by learning to manage their negative self-talk and build self-compassion. I believe we are all capable and deserving of the personal growth and transformation that comes from therapy.
My approach is client-centred, and I draw on a broad range of methods including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT). I work to recognize the unique experience of every client and bring this into my practice.
I bring warmth, compassion, and empathy into my sessions and am committed to making sure that clients have a safe space to feel heard. Should you have any questions, or wish to book a free 15-minute phone consultation, please don't hesitate to reach out.
