In therapy, you will explore “what's wrong for you” instead of “what's wrong with you”. There is enormous potential for self-awareness and self-growth with help from a listening, caring, and attuned therapist. I provide Relational Therapy, which holds that there is great potential for healing, growth and change from within a therapeutic
relationship
. I meet my clients with great respect, as a fellow traveler in the therapeutic journey. My wish is to cultivate a safe space for my clients to experience their emotions and encounter their beliefs about themselves.
Karey Wilson Therapy
Psychological Associate, M A, CPsych, Assoc
Verified
Rather than emphasizing learning new skills, psychodynamic psychotherapy uses the experience of the therapeutic
relationship
as a way of working through symptoms or problems.
It's no secret that life can be hard. Sometimes we struggle alone and feel like things will never get better. As an experienced therapist, my job is to work with you to develop a psychotherapy
relationship
that is safe, meaningful, and authentic. As this occurs, we explore and work through the life issues that led you here, and possibly some additional ones. Psychodynamic therapy is not typically brief or short-term. If you are interested in working on deeper issues to promote lasting psychological growth and healing, please get in touch with me. Alternatively, I also offer relatively shorter or open-ended psychotherapy.

Men's Groups Toronto

Keeping our word is one of the most fundamental requirements for maintaining healthy
relationship
.
I have run men's groups for nearly 30 years helping men become more effective and loving husbands partners, fathers and sons as well as better stewards in their outside world.The aim of this Men's Group is to create a context where each man is able to be honest, vulnerable and feel safe enough to speak his previously undisclosed inner truth in the presence of other supportive men, and to feel and show emotions other than anger. A place where men can feel their deepest emotions - laugh and cry and restore a true brotherhood.

Amy Tessler
Registered Psychotherapist, BEd, RP
Verified
Feeling stuck or held back in your life? Feelings of anxiety, overwhelm, numbness, trouble communicating or social-anxiety? So often these experiences affect our
relationship
to ourselves, our work and others. I specialize in working with self-esteem, PTSD, anxiety,
relationship issues
and dissociation. I believe that therapy is about creating a safe and open
relationship
, where together we can work to explore life's challenges and the ways we seek to change our own internal narratives. In this ongoing process of acceptance an awareness, we can find our resilience, authenticity, confidence and a deepening sense of self in the world.
Yordanka Garmenova
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
Verified
I understand the courage it takes to begin and commit to therapy, and that is why my first goal is to provide you with a safe and validating environment to share your experiences. Often we reach out for help with the goal of eliminating discomfort, however, I have found that the most significant gains in therapy come from facilitating a more compassionate
relationship
with ourselves. Being curious about our thoughts and emotions, and how they influence us, can be the first step in feeling empowered and meeting needs which may have been neglected for some time.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
