What is psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy is a collaborative process between a therapist and client which can help you gain insight into your experiences and ease your way to a more meaningful life. Working with a professional, rather than worrying alone, can lead to new insights and open up possibilities for healing and positive change.

How does therapy work?

A client and psychotherapist meet regularly (weekly or bi-weekly) with the goal of exploring and understanding the client's inner and outer worlds. The therapist will not advise so much as listen deeply to help you arrive at greater clarity and explore options best suited to you.

The surprising benefits of psychotherapy

Psychotherapy, which is likely covered by your health benefits, can result in surprising payoffs. You might seek therapy to get things off your chest, make sense of your feelings and find ways forward. While achieving these goals, you may notice unexpected returns on your investment: greater clarity, self-acceptance, energy and sense of purpose. To your pleasant surprise, you might discover you can engage others with greater ease - which in turn improves your well-being, career and relationships.

How can therapy help?

Therapy or a psychotherapist in Toronto can

  • offer you an accepting space where you can discuss experiences, situations, concerns and dilemmas
  • help you to process unresolved emotions, gain insight, explore possibilities and catalyze change
  • help you make meaningful connections between your beliefs, feelings and actions
  • help you establish habits which support your dreams and personal growth
  • help you to know, accept and value yourself in relation to others
  • help you to more comfortably express your feelings, needs, boundaries and bottom lines
  • help you relate to others more authentically and find greater emotional balance
  • maximize your ability to live a life that reflects the real you

Since everyone is unique in terms of life experience, resultant feelings, ways of coping and strengths, a therapist or counsellor will tailor their approach to you. As a registered psychotherapist, I intend to give you my heartfelt attention while facilitating your inner transformations and outer transitions. In time, with the insights and the skills you gain, you will likely feel more at ease and be better equipped to handle life - acting on your own behalf and relating to others more effectively. I welcome you to contact me to discuss the potential benefits of therapy for you.
