Therapists in M4W

As a Registered Psychotherapist in the Province of Ontario, I have been working in the field of counselling for over twenty years, providing Psychotherapy and Counseling to adolescents and adults in both individual and group settings. In a collaborative, compassionate and non-judgemental environment, I take an integrative approach, drawing upon a variety of interventions including cognitive behavioural, psychodynamic, relational and solution focused strategies. I hope to foster healing experiences for my clients that are empowering and pro-active.

I believe that the path to transformational change begins with introspection and self-awareness. As we navigate the intricate dynamics of our interactions with others and the world around us, I deeply acknowledge the courage it takes to share your story – a process that can be both challenging and profoundly meaningful. I consider it an immense privilege to hold a safe and nurturing space for you to embrace your authentic self without judgement. In my practice, I deeply value the uniqueness of each individual, their potential for growth and transformation, and I am committed to cultivating a genuine and open connection with you.

I have been practicing for over 20 years. I specialize in bereavement and loss . Individuals, of all ages and backgrounds, may experience this for many an issue- loss of a loved one, loss of a relationship, to loss of a cherished pet. Each persons experience of loss is unique. There is no right way or wrong way to grieve. There is no time limit. My goal is to help clients manage what they are experiencing. Most importantly, I am here to listen.

You might find yourself facing moments of fear, doubt, and insecurity while pursuing a fulfilling life. I adopt an integrative approach, drawing on many disciplines and traditions of therapy based on each client’s needs. Cultural sensitivity forms the foundation of my practice. I deeply honour and respect the unique backgrounds, beliefs, and experiences that shape every person’s narrative. Life is not either light or shadow; it’s an interplay of both. I believe that there is a wealth of resilience and untapped potential within you to take you toward inner freedom. There is always hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.

Change is hard, especially when you are doing it on your own. As a psychotherapist and clinical counsellor, I'm passionate about using effective, evidence-based treatments to help clients overcome life challenges, improve emotional wellbeing, and build the life they want. I specialize in working with clients who struggles with emotions, self-judgements, overcontrol, and habitual people pleasing. I work from a compassionate, person-centered approach that focuses on your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I believe that everyone is doing the best they can AND have the potential to grow, heal, and move towards a life they want.

I specialize in supporting women who are experiencing, stress, anxiety, or burnout. Finding a balance between the demands of work, home, and personal care can feel impossible. You may be having trouble sleeping, relying on self-destructive behaviours to cope, or not knowing where to turn. Whether you are overwhelmed with work, experiencing tension or conflict in your relationships, want support with your ongoing sobriety, or feel lonely and disconnected, I'm here to help.

Do you sometimes experience struggle in your life because of conflict between what you find erotic and your personal values? Do you have problems in relationships because of your sexual behaviours or interests? Do you feel that your sexual behaviours might be out of control? Or, do you struggle with a decrease in your desire for intimacy in your relationships, have problems with sexual arousal or struggle with performance anxiety? If you find yourself saying 'yes' to any of these questions, treatment with a qualified sex and relationship therapist like myself might be right for you.

Your healing journey has already begun because you're here and I am looking forward to partnering with you to take the next step. A positive and beneficial therapeutic relationship requires rapport building and trust, which we will work on together while I support you in achieving your personal goals. My faith is important to me and I believe that we are constantly growing and learning as people. As a result, change is always possible. I am passionate about working with teens, young adults, and families, with a special focus on the Black community and other marginalized racial/ethnic groups.

Do you feel isolated and awkward, even with friends? Do others effortlessly appear to connect in friendship, while you often feel yourself to be an outsider and different? Those closest to you may be unaware of your suffering, believing you to be ‘just fine’. Our relationships are vital for feeling good in our skins, for feeling supported, validated and most of all, safe. When instead they are superficial and stressful, we can suffer anxiety and even depression. Unable to be authentically ourselves with others, we fail to forge satisfying connections. Life can seem dull and pointless, the hard parts profoundly lonely.

Hi, I'm Becky Mathieu a registered psychotherapist working with children, adolescents, and adults at MindFit, a leading psychology clinic (or as prefer to say, "mental health gym"). Just like a "typical" gym, MindFit was designed to be accessible and inviting to anyone looking to improve their emotional well-being. From day one, I will do everything I can to ensure you and/or your child feels heard, supported and valued. My approach is structured (with weekly handouts), evidence-based, and designed to help you develop practical and effective skills and strategies to not only cope, but thrive.

Clients I work with are often experiencing recurring patterns of emotional hurt in their lives and may be unable to see their positive qualities, criticize themselves easily, or have trouble asserting themselves and speaking their minds. The common conditions that I work with include anxiety, PTSD, relationship or marriage conflict, workplace stress, persistent tension, or depression.

Welcome! I am committed to cultivating a nurturing relationship with clients that sees, affirms and honours individuals for who they are. All parts of you, including the parts that have been hurt, are welcome here. I believe that the human spirit is resilient, in spite of trauma, hardship, and struggle. You have the power to heal, and I am here to empower that spirit. As a client, you are in charge of your healing and are the sole authority of your lived experience. I offer you the freedom to set both the goals & the pace of our work together, and I intend to meet you where you are.

Our emotions and body sensations offer us important insights into what is working or not in our lives. Paying attention to our thought patterns and the messages we receive from our body/mind helps us to direct our lives to increasing happiness, calm, and fulfillment. It can be difficult to do this on our own, especially at times of feeling a loss of control or intense distress and confusion. A therapist can be a healing mirror and the relationship can provide a safe connection in order to explore life issues together.

Are you a teenager struggling with identity and finding who you are? Or an adult trying to figure out life, relationships, and new roles? Or a parent with myriads of questions about the changes that you witness in your child/teenagers? Or a couple going through new phases in your life and considering support? We may be of help, if you answered yes to any of these questions. We are a group of psychotherapists, committed to providing a safe and inclusive therapeutic environment. We offer psychotherapy in Farsi, Arabic, Portuguese, Mandarin. We are specialized in working with First Nations and refugees and accept NIHB and IFHP clients.

Currently Accepting New Clients. Life is a journey, and we can sometimes find ourselves overwhelmed and in need of a safe place to receive much-needed support. My goal as a therapist is to help you feel seen, heard and understood and to put you and your needs at the center of the work we do together. In doing so, I prioritize the development of a sincere therapeutic relationship rooted in compassion and respect without judgment.
