Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Central Toronto, Toronto, ON

Are you feeling stressed, anxious, or depressed? Have you experienced adversity or trauma in your life? Are you looking to understand the root of current triggers and respond in a manner that is in line with your values and authentic self? Are you ready to get past your past and move in a desired direction?

My practice specializes in helping people struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, obsessive behaviours, insomnia and other lifestyle concerns, interpersonal and intimate relationship challenges, and a sense of lack of meaning or purpose in life. I use an integral and person-centered approach, one which considers and values a person in all of their dimensions: mind, body, spirit, heart and culture.

If you are overwhelmed by your emotions or specific patterns reoccurring in your life, you are going through something extremely difficult, and you don't have to go through it alone. As an MA in Counselling Psychology practicum student who is qualified to practice under clinical supervision, I combine my psychotherapy training, relationship coaching background and past struggles with mental health to help you face the challenges in your life. While I support clients through a broad range of issues, I particularly specialize in breakups, OCD , intrusive thoughts, including but not limited to social anxiety and retroactive jealousy.

I provide assessments and treatment for presenting with a wide array of concerns including anxiety (e.g., social anxiety, health anxiety,), mood (e.g., major depressive disorder, bipolar II disorder), obsessive -compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder (including complex trauma), relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and self worth, life stress (e.g., major life transitions), psychosis, medication management and stress related to HIV, and concerns related to intersectional identities (e.g., BIPOC, gender, health status). I hold a special interest in working with couples and racialized and queer populations.

I provide evidence-based assessment and treatment for adults experiencing anxiety (e.g., social anxiety, panic disorder, agoraphobia, health anxiety, phobias), obsessive -compulsive disorder, depression, perfectionism, posttraumatic stress, emotion regulation difficulties, insomnia, relationship difficulties, and life stress (e.g., related to major life transitions). My clinical approach is integrative, drawing primarily from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). I am currently receiving training and supervision in individual Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT).

My name is Dr. Katie Stewart and I am a registered clinical psychologist in supervised practice.

I also work with people who are experiencing general life stress and anxiety and who need support. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and walks of life and aim to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you feel understood and validated. I especially love helping people to face their fears and find an inner strength they didn't know they had.

Do you wash your hands excessively or check things like door locks or the stove? Or do you avoid things like knives, public restrooms, or anything that might trigger your fearful thoughts? Do you find that your OCD is interfering with your relationships?

I analyze a set of your childhood memories/dreams you bring in to figure you out, understand potential root issues, then use EMDR and NLP to architect change. First, we identify personality style and inner-dynamics, then, the work. We consider various angles: nutrition, lifestyle factors and other variables. My work is technical. I deal with the gamut of problems but specialize in working with problems that have been unresponsive to conventional psychotherapy: OCD , Anorexia, etc. I am Jungian at heart.

Whatever this life holds for you, I am are here to guide and support you.
