Are you concerned that a therapist will only sit there silently and passively, without providing feedback to help you reach your goals? Some clients have told me that they tried psychotherapy in the past and shared much with the therapist, but ultimately left feeling they received little in return. That’s because many therapists remain too quiet and do not offer constructive feedback or tell you what they are thinking. I approach things differently and in my 20 years as a Ph.D. psychologist, I have always been straightforward and interactive with clients. If you are suffering from:

Welcome! It seems that you may be struggling with life challenges at the moment (i.e., relationship issues, work issues, loss, etc.), or, perhaps, anxiety, unwelcome thoughts, or apathy are getting in the way of you having the life you want. These are some of the common issues that people bring to my office. I have experience working with individuals, couples and groups, and I draw from extensive professional training to ensure you reach your desired outcome. This could include moving through old and/or new issues, making changes, improving relationships, increasing your vitality.

Life experiences can be challenging and may sometimes feel overwhelming. Deciding to try therapy is a step toward seeing things differently and doing things differently. I am a social worker with more than fifteen years’ experience supporting the social and emotional development of youth, adults, couples and families. I offer a welcoming and affirming therapeutic space to explore your experiences, identify your strengths and help you develop strategies for living the life you want.

I work from anti-oppression, client-centred and psychodynamic perspectives. In other words I respect the perspectives, goals and needs of the clients who are seeking support to understand themselves and others around them. As a therapist I become an ally in search of your truth and understanding of yourself, the world and others around you. I believe that working with a therapist can be helpful in sorting out your feeling and thoughts to face your challenges in life and become the best of yourself. I aim to offer a non-judgmental and open conversation so you can find that person in yourself.

THE BEST WAY TO CONTACT ME IS BY EMAIL (SEE www.lorrainemunro.com), NOT PHONE. As a counsellor, I support you in fostering authentic relationships with yourself and your communities. I offer a space for reflection that is non-judgmental, queer positive - and has wheelchair access. I draw on a variety of approaches, with a focus on what works for you, and the different parts of you.

(I currently have 4-5 month waitlist) Life can be very overwhelming, and often finding the right therapist can help us to cope with life's many challenges. I am a licensed psychotherapist specializing in the fields of trauma-related stress, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and family conflict. In the past, I have worked in a community agency serving youth, individuals and families for 5 years, and have trained for one year with a renowned psychiatrist who treats individuals with trauma-related symptoms. 8 years ago, I began my private practice in psychotherapy. Sessions are offered in person or by phone (telephone counselling)

Providing a balance of support and challenge, my approach to healing is holistic and comprehensive. I believe that each individual has all of the inner resources they need to achieve a sense of balance and equanimity. My role is merely to provide a safe, non-judgmental container in which they can reach their own integration - cognitively, emotionally and somatically. I aim to assist the individual's journey-making process through offering new ways at looking through the lens which often gets obscured by many mitigating factors. Clarity is the goal.

As a humanistic, relational psychotherapist for more than 10 years, I feel fortunate to work with diverse people on their journey to reach their fullest potential. I provide therapeutic relationships centred on shared understanding in the consultation room. In my practice, I provide an atmosphere of privacy, safety and acceptance. I work with adult individuals, couples and families who presented with a wide range of difficulties. As a collaborative therapist, we will face these issues at your pace and find creative ways for relief so you can deal with them to have more energy for work, life, love, and relationship.

I work with people who, in spite of difficult circumstances, have not given up on finding meaning in their lives. I help them with any number of difficulties, including depression, anxiety, grief and early trauma.

My approach is to acknowledge that we all suffer at certain times. However, it is how we make sense of, cope with, and transition through our life challenges that defines us. I use an interactive and in-depth approach to unearth the origins of your unhealthy behaviours while gently challenging these behaviours to aid therapeutic shifts. With you in charge, together we will go on a therapeutic journey that will allow you to empower, appreciate, rebuild, and transform. Schedule a complimentary 20 minute consult today to learn more.

Change and solutions are possible! Help is available. Psychotherapy addresses a variety of issues and I can help you with everything from anxiety to depression to life and relationship issues to addiction management and more. Often the hardest part is simply making the decision to begin. I offer a unique approach; in addition to traditional office visits, I see individuals and couples on SKYPE. Many people enjoy the added benefits of 'meeting' online; reduced travel time to and from their appointments, greater scheduling flexibility and being able to continue whether they are feeling under the weather or away on vacation.

If you are seeking an understanding of your experience of the world, including experiences with anxiety, emotions, grief, life transitions, relationships, and trauma, and want to gain insight as to methods for coping, processing, and managing your experience of the world, I encourage you to connect with me. I work with adults (18+) who desire change but do not know how or where to start and feel overwhelmed by the thought of beginning this process.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and I have completed my Master’s in Counselling Psychology & Psychotherapy at the University of Toronto. Growing up in South Africa has afforded me an enriched opportunity to live in a diverse setting where people come together from different walks of life. My previous volunteer experiences in Neurology wards in public hospitals in Cape Town has also allowed me to work with many ethnically and racially diverse individuals of which I am very grateful.

I help couples navigate relationship frustrations and conflict so they can feel connected and empowered, both as partners and as individuals. My intention is to provide a space where people feel comfortable and supported in improving their relationships. My work is collaborative, trauma-informed, LGBTQ affirming and grounded in anti-oppression. I welcome couples and individuals of diverse backgrounds and identities and strive to provide open, empathic and non-judgemental support.

Hi, I'm a psychotherapist and registered social worker. My approach to therapy focuses on helping you understand and cope with issues such as anxiety, self esteem, and relationships. Together, we'll explore symptoms, patterns, defenses, goals, and whatever else comes up in a session. I see therapy as an investment in yourself that can help with existing problems and also lead to future opportunities. Phone sessions are available.

Welcome! You're here because you want to make a change in your life. Maybe you're not sure how, or where. That's ok. Together, we can try to understand why things are happening, find root causes, and identify patterns. Together we can make a custom plan to address your challenges, practice new skills, and find happiness, purpose, or relief. I've seen it: things can get better. I specialize in (1) relationships & sex, (2) anxiety, (3) trauma & healing, (4) stress management, and (5) issues specific to the LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, two-spirited, queer) communities. I have over 10 years experience as a therapist.

I see people with a wide array of concerns, who may be experiencing symptoms related to a mental health concern, have history of childhood or adulthood trauma, experiencing relationship issues, low self-esteem, feeling overwhelmed or stressed in their lives, experiencing grief & loss, infertility, and concerns related to sexuality, gender and sexual orientation. I work from a relational-cultural approach, also incorporating elements of Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (body-oriented), Emotion-Focused Therapy, Trauma Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy.
