Non-Binary Therapists in Central Toronto, Toronto, ON

Therapy doesn't have to be scary! I know first-hand what it can be like to suffer in silence, longing for change, & struggling to find someone who "gets" you. If you grew up in a home where you didn't get the support that you needed, if you went through something that you feel like you have never recovered from, or if you feel like a black sheep everywhere you go, I would be happy to co-create a non-judgmental healing space where you feel seen, heard, & valued. We can work on things like learning to understand yourself, re-gaining control of your life, & appreciating the parts of you that have clawed you out of your darkest times.

If you are struggling with overwhelming emotions, relationship issues, marginalization, or trauma, you may find hope and empowerment through therapy. As a queer, non-binary therapist, I focus on social justice and how oppression can both impact you and be resisted on a personal level. I will support you to work with overwhelming emotions so that they don’t control you or damage your relationships, and instead guide you towards a more fulfilling life. Through a supportive and collaborative relationship, we can deeply understand your experiences, help you heal from their impacts, and work towards your hopes for your life.

In whatever way you find yourself here, rest assured we can build the tools you need to unpack and resolve the issues you face. Whether you are exploring your identity, opening up or managing the health of your relationship(s), processing experiences from your past, or needing space to explore a sense of unrest - I will meet you in co-creating a compassionate space of deep empathy, gentle exploration, strengthening and resolution. If you feel ready to explore the next phase of your healing or recovery work, I offer a unique and experiential lens guided by integrity, consent, reflexivity and accountability.

I’m currently welcoming couples, polycules, and constellations who hope to feel braver in their intimacy and independence. Both, because we’re wired for these opposite drives: home and adventure, predictability and risk, closeness and freedom. Spoiler… it is not a problem to solve but a paradox to manage. I’m here to become your co-conspirator in this vexing, delicious dilemma.

What do you think when you think of therapy? Are you looking for a therapist who is warm, open, and wants to support you exactly where you are at? When you think of connecting with a therapist, what are some of your hopes? My name is Adrian and I want to provide an open and collaborative space where we can connect about issues you are facing. Things such as grief, depression, anxiety, systemic oppression, not feeling accepted, transitions, and maybe an overall feeling that things are harder than they could be.

You really can feel more comfort and joy in your own skin! You can unwind shame and anxiety around your a/sexuality and a/gender and discover them as a source of vibrancy and affirmation. Pleasure is a profound healer and you deserve more of it in your life! I’m here to help you live your most fabulous life while enjoying the process along the way. You might be thinking, is that even possible? Isn’t therapy painful? Therapy with me is a warm collaboration, with laughter, practicality, good science and more than a pinch of creativity. I show up as a real person and journey beside you towards your goals.

Are you have a hard time and looking for some support? I am a registered psychotherapist who supports folks struggling with mood and anxiety concerns, regulation of emotion, relationship issues and identity questions. People often come to me when they are struggling with anxiety or depressive symptoms that are getting in the way of living their best life. Also people come to me when navigating gender and sexuality, discrimination to have anti-oppressive place to explore these questions or having their authentic selves be seen and supported. I provide family and parents support for those with trans youth and adult children.

My approach to therapy is practical, creative, humorous, and interactive. Engaging in therapy is a vulnerable and courageous step, and I aim to foster a comfortable, collaborative process. When the tools and skills that were previously helpful are no longer working, I support clients to cultivate new coping skills, and identify potential areas for change and/or acceptance.

I am a non-binary lesbian trauma-focused therapist that operates from culturally informed, intersectional, anti-racist, and feminist values. My practice is 2SLGBTQ+ and neurodiversity affirming. I provide strengths-based, client-centered holistic therapy that fosters connection to the whole self. We can explore your values and intersecting identities, build self-compassion, set boundaries, and heal from complex traumas. Together we can build a relationship based on trust and compassion that recognizes and empowers your lived experiences and authentic self. I am masters student finishing my degree and practicing under supervision.

I have experience working with youth and adults with an emphasis on and gender diverse folks and the LGBTQ2S community. I have supported clients with a range of presenting issues, including anxiety and depression, body image, eating disorders, gender/sexuality-related issues, personality disorders, intergenerational trauma, complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and substance use. My approach is grounded in a trauma-informed, intersectional anti-oppressive framework and I aim to foster resilience and empowerment using a warm, collaborative approach to support folks in meeting their goals.

I work with clients who are undergoing any experience that might be called 'transformation.' Sometimes transformation is forced upon us by external events, and sometimes we are called to it from within. Either way, it can be a difficult process to navigate alone. My aim is to provide clients with a compassionate, empowering, and insight-evoking space in which they can process pain and grow into their truest self. I welcome clients from all walks of life who feel that they would benefit from a more embodied and imaginative approach to therapy.

Welcome! I am so happy you're here. As a therapist, I hope to join you on your individual and collective healing journeys in the ways that feel best - navigating paths unknown, tender moments to slow down and rest, and all that is between and beyond. I work primarily with BIPOC and 2SLGBTQ+ clients, including first-generation children of immigrants, and queer and trans Muslims. I draw from somatic, narrative, expression-based practices, and Internal Family Systems. My therapy is political and slow; embracing of pleasure and joy, and holding space for the impacts of navigating the world in bodies that are marginalized and oppressed.

I am a Registered Social Worker with experience providing counselling support for both individuals and groups. I offer a therapeutic process that is Holistic, Feminist, Anti-oppressive, Trauma-informed and Client-centered. Together we can explore and understand the spaces in your life where you may feel stuck, gently fostering desired growth. Using a non-judgemental, compassionate approach, I support clients in developing awareness of their thoughts, feelings, body sensations and current coping skills. I draw on a number of therapeutic modalities, giving space for each person's unique capacity to heal.

Looking for support? Therapy provides an opportunity to express big feelings, talk through challenges, explore patterns of behaviour, develop greater self-awareness, and try different ways of being and relating. I practice contemporary Gestalt therapy that is experiential, relational and embodied. I was first drawn to Gestalt because it embraces an egalitarian relationship between client and therapist, takes a non-pathologizing approach to mental health, and invites creativity. I emphasize the development of self-awareness as a way to increase choice, flexibility, acceptance, and ultimately wellbeing.

I help anxious, depressed, traumatized, neurodivergent, overwhelmed or highly sensitive people to find a grounding and calm in their body-mind. We explore creative ways of being with a focus on being in the here and now, with increasing awareness. I help you to build your self-support and build resilience to difficulties. I help you to free yourself of the freezing, fight or fight response and help you to build better relationships with better boundaries, creating more flexibility and spontaneous moments of joy in your life,

Welcome! Wherever you are on your journey, finding your way here and reaching out to connect with someone new is a big step, one which takes courage! As a pre-licensed student therapist, I am on my own journey of becoming a professional listener. I think you are uniquely qualified to know what is best for you, and my goal is to create a space that is shaped around your needs where your thoughts, feelings, and deep self-knowledge can be accessed and recognized. My approach is humanistic as well as integrative/eclectic. My role is to help facilitate a conversation with yourself, and help you connect with your own voice.

Are you struggling with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or rituals you can't help but do? You might be experiencing distressing emotions, or trying to heal from a trauma or loss. I’m passionate about helping people overcome their struggles. Whether that’s feeling hopeless, stuck, lost, or overwhelmed, there are real tools that can help you move past these challenges.
