As a Registered Psychotherapist, human being, and author of BINGE CRAZY: A Psychotherapist's Memoir of Food Addiction, Mental Illness, Obesity and Recovery (2018), I view seeking help as a strength - requiring the courage and wisdom to reach your own truths. My practice, based in Gestalt therapy - a holistic, here and now approach encompassing any and all aspects of your life - includes other modalities to find what works best for you - from creative forms of expression to more structured methods. In Gestalt, you are the expert (on you) and I am the guide to help you explore what needs healing.

Does the weight of your worry continue to grow and leave you feeling exhausted? Are you trying hard to fit in, but usually end up feeling excluded, unhappy, and anxious? Or perhaps you're noticing that your child is finding it hard to connect with others? The stress of relationships and identity can be a lot to manage; having to tell someone about it can be downright overwhelming. If you or a loved one feels like there's nowhere else to turn, accessing the support of a trusted therapist can help you focus on your strengths and discover who you really are.

I offer counselling/ psychotherapy services that meet you where you are. If you are looking for support to face some of your life's challenges or to live a more satisfying life, I may be able to help.My work is guided by the following key principles: we all possess a natural tendency toward growth and healing; counselling/psychotherapy is a collaborative process, with the client directing the process; we are all so much more than the worst thing we have ever done.

I am committed to providing a multiculturally competent approach to quality psychotherapy and assessment. I have extensive experience in counselling and conducting psychoeducational assessments for children, adolescents and adults.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, anxious, depressed, hopeless, lonely,confused, scared, frustrated or stuck? Are the issues that you are facing getting in the way of your daily functioning, enjoyment, health, relationships, goals, academic success, job performance and of the hopes and dreams that you have for yourself? Are you tired of feeling the way that you are and want something different for yourself? If you answered "Yes" to any of the above, then you've come to the right place! We can work together to help you move toward a healthier and happier place in a way that fits for you.

I am an experienced therapist with 30 years of practise to draw upon. I will listen carefully as you describe the issues that you need support and help to sort out. Often, an increased understanding of the challenges that you face can be very helpful to move forward in your life. As well, learning some new skills to manage the issues and/or gaining a new perspective on the issues can be useful as well. I appreciate that it is not easy to embark on a therapy course so I make every effort to be supportive and understanding as we build a therapy relationship.

I am a registered Social Worker and have worked primarily with children, teenagers, young adults over the past nine years. For the last seven years, I have worked in partnership with a Developmental and Behavioural Paediatrician providing services to enhance the well-being of my clients. I focus primarily on treating clients with anxiety, depression and emotional regulation difficulties. I consider myself extremely privileged to work in this field and approach each client with compassion and understanding.

30 years of clinical practice experience providing support and delivering successful outcomes to children and families. You are not alone. 1 in 5 children and youth in Ontario will experience some form of mental health problem. Anxiety and depression are on the rise. Growing up and raising a family is hard. There is no shame in seeking help. I can support you in managing and overcoming: Anxiety • Depression • ADHD/ ADD • Emotional Regulation • Parenting support and family service

With graduate, post-graduate degrees, and over 30 years of clinical experience, I welcome Children, Teens, Adults, Couples & Families into my practice who are facing anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, grief, addiction, chronic pain/illness, or stress from relationship conflicts. I specialize in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Relapse Prevention Therapy, and Self-Care which are personalized to each client's unique age & circumstances, as well as a unique Couple's Program, and Deep Healing that addresses pain and utilizes strengths to repair. I use specific strategies to gain real results.

My approach is client-centred and I draw on various modalities to best meet the needs of the individual client. I am trained in CBT, EFT, SST and DBT and have many years experience in children's mental health and working with individuals and groups at Community Health Centre in Toronto. I will work with each client to identify their strengths, needs and provide a framework to learn new ways of coping and managing with whatever challenges they are facing.

Helena takes an approach to therapy that is intersectional, feminist, client-centered, strength-based, trauma-informed and anti-oppressive. She is affirming of LGBTQ2S+ identities. She uses an emotion-focused, attachment theory lens taking a curious stance to encourage looking inward for answers and exploring patterns. Helena views clients as the experts of their own experience and aims to create a collaborative relationship that can foster healing, growth and empowerment.

I center my work around the understanding that each individual’s experience is unique. You are the expert in your own life, and I am here to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment for you. I believe in the importance of developing your own individualized toolbox to help increase your ability to cope with life stressors. We will work together to identify your existing strengths and how you can amplify your ability to tackle the challenges you are facing. I have experience working with children, youth, and adults experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and low self-esteem.

I am a caring psychotherapist with a genuine enthusiasm for people to know inner wellness and personal freedom. My significant experience and training in different psychotherapy models have provided me confidence in treating various psychological, emotional and behavioral issues in individuals, couples and families. My approach is to provide meaningful and effective treatment in a safe, nurturing and non-judgmental environment where you can find a support that is compassionate, informative and transformative.

Clients come to me when they're feeling overwhelmed and exhausted from trying to "keep it together all the time". Often, they're suffering from a combination of burnout, stress, anxiety, depression, fears or low self-esteem. They feel disconnected from themselves and unable to navigate even the simplest of daily challenges. They want support in learning how to reduce the weight of their emotional and physical tensions and regain confidence in their ability to navigate their daily lives.

People come to counselling/psychotherapy for many reasons. Sometimes they are struggling with distressing emotions that get in the way of their productivity, daily functioning and peace of mind. Other times, they want to have better experiences in their relationships with family, friends, a loved-one or co-workers. In some cases they are going through periods of change and struggle to find balance and comfort in the midst of uncertainty. If you are at an impasse in your life... if you simply cannot go on with things being the way they are... you are in the perfect place for change to happen!!

My name is Kailey Feldman and I am a registered social worker in Toronto, Ontario. I work with individuals who are struggling with any mental health issue, including (but not limited to) anxiety, depression, and eating disorders. I also help people adjust to life transitions, and work with clients who are struggling with conflict in their relationships. I have training in CBT, DBT, Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.

Transitions can be difficult. Sometimes we might not have the words/language to understand and express our experiences. Everyone has different needs and expectations. Expressive Arts Therapy is a journey that aims to help people in difficult life transitions through arts and play. This path helps you create the life you want to live. Anti-oppression and trauma-informed frameworks are my core values. I work with adults (18 +) about anxiety, depression, self-esteem, stress management, trauma, grief/loss, separation, adaptation to new conditions, and palliative illness.

I specialize in Women's Reproductive Life Transitions including families trying to conceive, pregnancy, postpartum, pregnancy loss and menopause, often working with issues related to depression, anxiety and grief.
