I believe we are all coping as best we can, and there are times in our lives when we can use extra support and guidance in seeking clarity and direction. My goal and wish for my clients is that out of pain and despair, comes peace, freedom, and ultimately joy. I feel truly honored to hear people's stories and my desire and motivation to work collaboratively and respectfully with people at their own pace is genuine. With my help as your therapist I will provide a safe healing environment and help you develop a healthier and more rewarding approach to life.

Know all the theories, master all the techniques, but as you touch a human soul, be just another human soul- Carl Jung. Are you looking for someone to talk to? Someone to help you on your journey? Or are you looking for someone to listen to you in a safe and nonjudgemental environment? Well, look no further. My name is Toby John, and welcome to my profile. I am a Registered Provisional Psychologist specializing in sex therapy, couples counselling, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. I believe that quality treatment begins with a solid therapeutic relationship between the client and the therapist.

I have a very rational and direct approach to counselling; I will say it how I see it, but with a sense of humor if appropriate. My knowledge and experience is well suited for clients that are dealing either with trauma (especially sexual violence or childhood abuse), or would like to have more effective thoughts and behaviours. Healing is not easy, but by looking at what can change, and what could be accepted, clients often find a new balance that helps their thoughts and feelings become more adaptive, helpful, and much less painful. I am currently taking clients in person or online due to Covid-19.

Encouraging growth for adults, adolescents, couples and families. Individuals have powerful strengths and resources. I help people tap into those resources to help them heal, overcome life obstacles, and find the personal growth they are looking for.

I feel like I was born in the construction trades. At a young age I worked at height (Rope Access), in remote areas, and in all environments. I wanted the skills to respond to any emergency at any time, this desire lead me to pre-hospital emergency medicine (EMR), wilderness first-aid, and rope rescue training. My work and personal experiences from this time left me feeling isolated, dreading human interactions, and losing my love of learning and mastering new skills. It was this experience that compelled me to address my own mental health and further lead me to complete a Diploma in Transpersonal Counselling Psychology.

I am a Certified Sensorimotor Psychotherapist and a Registered Psychologist. I am honoured to walk with clients through their healing related to anxiety, trauma, attachment, and reproductive mental health, and caregiving stress and burn-out. Therapy helps a client to improve awareness and empowerment; develop resources and regulation; explore patterns of relationship with self and with others; process wounds and trauma; strengthen voice; cultivate authentic self-worth, and embody deep & enduring curiosity.
