Therapists in Toronto, ON

You need someone who would help you feel less "stuck" with something that took over many important aspects of your life, and you would like to learn about yourself through your strengths and potentials rather than diagnoses and symptoms only? As a therapist I am working with clients for more than a decade and it still fascinates me how resourceful and committed people can be in their therapy. We choose goals, set the pace and tailor strategies together. You don't have to come "ready" the only expectation is that you are still somewhat curious about what could happen in your life.

Hi, I'm Ken! Are you seeking a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore your challenges and rediscover your authentic self? Would you like to connect with a LGBTQ+ identified clinician? I'm a therapist dedicated to helping you find calm, connection, and confidence. I work collaboratively with individuals of all ages, tailoring therapy to your unique needs and goals. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, shame, or exploring your sexuality, I'm here to offer support you.

Do you have the sense that who you really are exists below the surface of your awareness? Do you struggle with the feeling that your life isn't as full and as vibrant as you know it can be? These feelings are completely and utterly normal, and therapy can help shift your awareness and your actions towards a stronger sense of purpose and meaning. We can work together to reframe unhelpful thoughts, shift your attention away from harsh self-criticism, navigate the depths of grief and loss, and make decisions based off feelings other than guilt and shame.

Hi, I'm Liane! (she/her). My practice largely centers on helping people strengthen their relationship with themselves and others. Together, we can help you identify and overcome patterns that no longer serve you. I have a lot of experience helping people navigate anxiety as well as insecure attachment styles. I have a thorough understanding of polyamory and ethical non-monogamy. Some of the topics that often come up in-session are nervous system regulation, communication skills, assertiveness, boundary setting, co-dependency, and perfectionism. I have a holistic approach, incorporating both somatic work and talk therapy.

Are you looking to feel more comfortable in your life? Do you notice that you are compelled to continue showing up in a certain way: perfectionistic, people pleasing, avoiding vulnerability, defensive, critical, worrying, withdrawn, down, anxious or burnt-out? If so, I know that you have tried to shift and can't find your way through. You want peace inside and ease everywhere. And you deserve that.

Encountering painful moments and periods of hardship is inevitable and can bring us into contact with the most fundamental parts of ourselves. Instead of avoiding these experiences, I am interested in working with you to explore them with curiosity and self-compassion. Healing is a nonlinear process that takes time, and some things may always be unresolved; I see therapy as a safe space to collaboratively explore and articulate different facets of your experience, set therapeutic goals, and work together to create desired changes.

Many of us know that life can be complex, challenging and sometimes throws us a curve ball. It can contribute to different emotions, relational issues, health problems, difficulty making decisions or a feeling of being overwhelmed and alone. Quite often, we are able to work through these challenges with our normal coping strategies. However, at other times, no matter what we try, the difficulty doesn’t resolve and it gets in the way of our happiness, relationships, work and hopefulness about the future. If this is happening to you, or you are afraid it might, now may be a good time to reach out for support.

It's not true, you do not have to face the hard stuff alone, so I honour your bravery in reaching out for help in a capitalistic, ableist society that favours individualism. I am so excited for you to lean into the support of a therapeutic relationship which is the foundational element to our work together. I focus on centering your individual experience with consideration for systemic, cultural, and political factors that influence your quality of life and relationships.

My work is rooted in compassion and together we can equip you with the tools to cope with life's challenges, understand yourself better, and go from surviving to thriving in order to create the life that you deserve.
