Couples Counselling Therapists in Toronto, ON

Hello I’m Normand. I am a Queer person; a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist; and a board game enthusiast. My practice focuses on the importance of self-determination, diversity, and relationship building; while being both neuroscience and trauma informed. I have been trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and I am eclectically informed by other styles including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Psychodynamic Therapy.

Hi there. The focus of my practice is helping adults who are facing difficult transitions or other mental health challenges by using talk therapy. My unique background in art therapy (M.A. from New York University) influences my creative approach. I specialize in working with adults of all ages experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship issues, addictions, ADHD, grief, job dissatisfaction and more. We will use a variety of approaches to help you gain skills and insight into what's going on.

Does this sound like you? You struggle with “people-pleasing.” You wear a "Happy Mask": you smile when you're sad, pretend to agree when you don't, and hide your vulnerability. Deep down, you just want people to like you! You have been called "too nice" or "self-less." You are overly accommodating in relationships; you leave yourself with just the scraps. Self-care, or asking for help, feels foreign. You have a hard time setting boundaries and advocating for your own needs, particularly in close relationships. You want to be more authentic, to feel better, and get your own needs met too.

WELCOME! You want to be at peace with yourself and the people around you. You want the freedom to follow your dreams, to be part of something that matters, and to live to your fullest potential. However, you may have hit a low point, feel you are missing out on life, or feel afraid and alone. You may have more bad days than good days and feel you are falling apart. You may struggle with: anxiety and panic attacks, pain, health anxiety, depression, loneliness, insomnia/sleeplessness, fear after a personal trauma, alchohol/substance use, lifestyles issues, an abusive relationship , or controlling your reaction to others.

Hi, I'm Audette! I work with individuals that are dealing with the challenges of life the best way they know how. Perhaps you're turning to food for comfort, cycling between bingeing and purging, or exercising beyond your limits. Maybe you're pushing your feelings down. It seems like the better option, and yet you're constantly exhausted and overwhelmed. On some level this works, but deep down, there's a part of you that wonders, is this it? Is there another way?

Why do I feel this way? Anxiety can take hold of your life and leave you feeling like you have lost control. Often clients will tell me that things are going well in their life; they have everything they thought they wanted, yet each day feels like an exhausting battle. Please know you are not alone. I understand the immense struggle anxiety can bring to our lives, and I can help you build the skills you need to manage it. As we work together to better understand your anxiety, I will help you learn tools so you can face your day and truly feel in control of those scary thoughts and feelings- and not the other way around.

She works with individuals and couples to improve sexual health issues and also provides consultation and training to other therapists. Dr. Yule's therapeutic approach integrates sex therapy techniques with cognitive-behavioural, emotion-focused and mindfulness therapies, as well as using interpersonal techniques to help clients foster stronger relationships.

Life is beautiful but it is also hard, exhausting, sad, messy and temperamental. Coping with the intense pressures and stress we face can be very challenging and isolating. I believe therapy is about having a relationship where we can safely and authentically explore and discover where we tend to hide parts of ourselves, run away, and hold back our truth from the world. Together we will explore this in a manner that welcomes and supports your whole being to foster an ongoing process of self-awareness, healing and self development - and towards you moving in the world with greater resiliency, authenticity and a deeper sense of self.

When faced with a challenge or uncertainty, it can take a toll on your well-being, productivity, and self-worth. It can be difficult to talk to your friends, family, or romantic partner about how you are feeling, and finding a safe space can be the first step to feeling like yourself again.

I appreciate you for taking steps toward making a change. I have experience working with individuals and couples seeking therapy for various challenges such as anxiety disorders, depression, grief/loss, self-improvement, and relationship challenges. Together, we can explore your strength and process your challenges. While uncovering patterns that are not serving you, we can look for ways to leverage your strengths and access your inner resources. I deeply value offering a compassionate, non-judgmental, and authentic presence in therapy. My approach to therapy is strength-based with a focus on the Mind-Body connection.

Hi, I'm Ting Ting. I work with individuals (often professionals) experiencing issues related to anxiety, stress/burnout, perfectionism, trauma, shame, relationship difficulties, and cultural identity. I strive to make going to therapy feel like stepping into a safe space, where you’re being met with warmth, empathy and nonjudgement. In this safe space, I've had the pleasure of witnessing as clients learn to feel safer in their bodies and in the world, increase their sense of hope and empowerment, and become better able to reach their full potential in life, work, and in relationship with themselves and others.

My practice is focused on helping individuals struggling with various forms of distress such as depression, anxiety, and trauma. I use my expertise to help individuals understand the factors that shaped their experience of the world and to become more flexible with how they act, relate, think, and make decisions. Clients will also be supported to develop healthier coping strategies to lessen the negative impact that chronic distress can have on their capacity to strive for meaningful goals. The client's internal resources and strengths are engaged to aid in the pursuit of these goals.

I have been committed to supporting the development of individuals, couples , and families since 2001.
