Have you experienced trauma, feel anxious, depressed, disconnected, or overwhelmed? Are you caught in overthinking, avoiding tough decisions, being challenged by past trauma, or unable to balance your concerns? Many client's discover what is most fulfilling and supportive during deeper reflection on their needs. This includes being clear on what you value, how to better express your needs, and discovering how to help yourself. Feeling lost, unsupported, and uncertain is natural, but staying stuck there isn't the answer. Regardless of the reason, I’m glad you found your way here to connect and find your authentic path forward.

Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Add circumstances of trauma, pain, injury, or other negative experiences to this, and we start to run low on resources and resilience. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your physical and mental health. I am happy to chat with you to see how I might be able to support your goals to move towards a brighter future.

APPROACH TO HELPING: Life on this planet can be hard. There are ups and downs; pluses and minuses; stops and starts; joys and sorrows. Flux and flow. We all live within that and, sometimes, we need help managing. The right therapy can help rebuild a foundation solid enough to begin creating a life that feels right, for you, according to your values. A place to safely process, redefine and reframe. A place to learn the tools to rebuild, manage and accept everything that comes your way, using the theories, practices and protocols of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment, Interpersonal and Emotion-Focussed models.

Being overly worried about what others think takes up a lot of time and energy, often leaving you feeling overwhelmed and burnt out. Trying to balance your time between school and work can make it difficult to connect with others on a deeper level and maintain meaningful relationships. You’re tired of feeling lonely and worthless. You’re not where you want to be and want to make a change. Experiencing these emotions doesn’t mean that they have to take over your life — I am here to support you in better managing them when they show up.

Life can be fun & exciting, it can also be lonely, overwhelming, & stressful. Times like this, you're more likely to be hard on yourself, speak critically, not recognize your worth, or make poor decisions that hold you back from reaching your full potential. Therapy is a tool that helps you identify challenges & recognize the critical thoughts that keep you from living the life you deserve. I've worked in the field of mental health for 30 years. My primary focus has been working with children, youth, & parents. I've worked within many sectors including schools. I have an excellent understanding of systems & how to navigate them.

Would you like to learn how to deal with difficult emotions, tackle troublesome thoughts, improve relationships, and feel better about yourself? I believe that, by identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, we can become “unstuck” and build inner strength. In my practice, I meet clients where they are at and support them with empathy, respect, and identity-affirming care, while creating a safe space to facilitate personal growth.

Therapists are responsible for developing a reciprocal & safe atmosphere for their clients to explore & learn more about themselves & the patterns in their lives; this comes with responsibility to ensure responsiveness to a variety of different types of people. I am a Registered Clinical Social Worker with over 19 years experience. I have worked with children, teens & adults, couples & families in various capacities. I have experience in both clinical/hospital based & community based settings. I am certified in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) & Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) as well as mindfulness based approaches.

I have worked extensively with teens, individuals and couples as they navigate various challenges including anxiety, depression, suicidality/self harm, relationship and interpersonal stressors, as well as complex trauma and PTSD. Some individuals are very aware of where they are struggling, which helps us to align quickly and start working together. Whereas others might be new to counselling and really want a trained clinician to help them to understand and make sense of their world and experiences in a safe, warm and supportive space. I offer a client centered approach and will meet you where you are at, wherever that might be.

If you feel like something is in the way or holding you back from reaching your life worth living goals or finding connection, then I would like to help you . At some points, we can all experience difficult times and need support to guide us through. Experiences that have caused anxiety, pain, grief, loss, lack of connection, or shame can feel overwhelming if left unrecognized. I have found that through the creation of a safe, supportive, client-therapist relationship healing and change can happen. Authenticity, trust & respect are the guideline principles of my practice.

I work with parents either in relationship or separated, who are struggling with parenting due to relational break-down or children's behavioural issues. Co-parenting is especially tricky! I can help with strategies and ideas for how to cope, including how and when to tell children you are separating. I offer personal counselling for teens and adults struggling with anxiety and/or depression. I also provide marriage/relationship counselling. The goal is always to take steps towards respect and harmony in relationships with family and friends.

I am the owner and operator of Margarita Rabinovich & Associates. I believe that most of us decide to seek help through psychotherapy when we have painful feelings or destructive impulses that cause difficulties in our lives and the lives of others we care for or love. Most individuals are affected by periods of discouragement and hopelessness, feeling disconnected, numb, distressed, unable to function or anxious. You are not alone. Many mental health disorders can be episodic and often is a response to a way of life that does not align with our more profound sense of meaning and authenticity or to unexamined early traumas.

I am a clinical therapist currently completing my Master's in Psychology (MPsy) at Adler Graduate Professional School. I provide my services under the supervision of Dr. Carol-Anne Hendry, C. Psych.

My therapeutic approach is client-centered and integrative, weaving trauma-informed and emotion-focused modalities to create a tailored healing plan for each child, teen and family.
